Turner's renegotiated contract gives him an extra $17.1 mil this year, making his outgoing salary + Hield's salary $55.7 mil. Combine Russ, Lonnie, and Jones' contracts to get to $55.8 mil. Even after the new contract, Turner is still eligible to be traded by the 2023 trade deadline. Lakers are able to improve their defense and perimeter shooting with one trade.

Indiana adds two first rounders for Turner, who publicly tampered on ESPN for the Lakers to trade the picks for him. Hield has been on the trade block and hasn't gotten any substantial offers for a while. Pacers are able to try out Lonnie to see if he fits next to their young core. Russ goes off the books after this season.
