Lakers get their center, Brooklyn gets expirings

Claxton had a down year last year effectively dropping his trade value. I think this would be enough for him to take off his contract from the team, they get expirings, which are extremely valuable in this nba’s salary cap. They can also maybe reroute Rui to another team for a first rounder if they wanted. This is also a lot better than other deals with Knecht where you send a first rounder with him, when Knecht still has potential and if the Lakers find a 3 and d wing trade where we need to include him.
