This offseason was a big shit: not resigning Myles, signing some bad Centers to worse contracts, etc. So here's a way we can finish it in a decent way
Trade:
Kings get Ben Sheppard, 2027 srp via UTA
Pacers get Keon Ellis
This is an addition I would like very much. Versetile defendor that can play both SG and PG would fit well in our team. He could guard the other teams star when Nembhard was on the bench and also be our Backup PG for T.J. In exchange, Ben Sheppard, a solid role player, and a 2027 Utah second which is almost a first
Additional Moves
Sign Malik Beasley on a 2 year, 10 M contract: This would be an steal for us, getting a top 5 shooter for this cheap. On the other hand, he's still a risk cause of the whole gambling thing, but it's a risk worth taking in my opinion. We could get him for quite cheap due to his situation so I wouldn't let the opportunity pass.
Sign Thomas Bryant on a 1 year minimum: We should had resigned him long ago, but now he's probably willing to take less money since he doesn't have a team yet. This gives us more center quality.
Re-Sign Bennedict Mathurin on a 3 year, 52.5 M contract: We need to hook up Ben sooner or later, but I'd rather sooner.
