Thunder finally go all in and land Cam Johnson. They open up some longer term money for when SGA, Jalen Williams, and Chet are all on their Max deals. They also clear a roster spot for their 1-2 potential 1st rounders coming in this year. They create the best 8 man rotation, maybe ever. SGA, Dort, Williams, Johnson, Chet, Cason, Caruso, Hartenstein. Plus they have many other role guys to fill extra time: Jaylin Williams, Kenrich Williams, Mitchell, Dieng, Jones, Wilson, and maybe a lottery pick this year…
Nets trade Cam Johnson for young assets instead of picks as they already have a ton of picks. Add in their extensive cap space and they are primed to make a splash this offseason. A new young core around Topic, Ivey, Wiggins, Claxton, Clowney, Watford, a lottery pick, and two other 1sts this year could turn into something.
Pistons make a seemingly questionable move on face value by moving Ivey and Tobias for Isaiah Joe and late 1st this year. However, this gets Detroit back into the 1st round to find a depth piece, opens up cap space to sign Naz Reid and resign Beasley and Schroder, and creates a very very fun rotation.
Cade, Joe, Ausar, Reid, Duren
Schroder, Beasley, Holland, Fontecchio, Stewart
Sasser, Klintman, late 1st, early 2nd
