Poison Pill

Jalen Suggs is on a rookie contract and signed an extension that is to begin the following season. Therefore, he has what is known as a "poison pill" contract. He can no longer be traded for a player making equal money. Instead, his current salary is averaged along with the salaries he is to receive in his extension, and that average becomes his incoming salary for trade purposes. His outgoing value for the Magic will be $9.1M while his incoming value for the receiving team will be $26.6M.

Contract Over

After the trade deadline, the team cannot trade Russell Westbrook since he has a player option next year which is worth $3.4M.

Financial

Pistons are unable to complete this trade. Since they are not an over apron team, and they are sending out between $7,500,000 and $29.0M in salary, they are only able to take back $7.5M more than the salary they are sending out.

Pistons can only take back $25.9M in salary based on the amount they are sending out.

Cut $9.9M from the Pistons incoming trade value to make this trade successful for the Pistons.

Could Orlando win the Jokic sweepstakes? They have a formidable duo in Paolo and Franz but adding a playmaking Center like Jokic while adding two guards who can shoot from deep might make them immediate contenders. With control over all of their future picks this is the type of all in move we could see from Orlando. Westbrook, KCP, Anthony, and Sasser could start to build out their backcourt rotation.

Detroit gets in to grab MPJ for Ivey, Fontecchio, a future 1st, and two 2nds. MPJ slides into the 4 spot and Detroit creates a strong rotation for many years to come and kick the can on the Ivey extension decision. Cade, Ausar, Holland, MPJ, Duren, Tobias, Stewart, Beasley, Schroeder create a very nice rotation.

Nuggets sell the farm and make one of the most franchise-altering decisions ever made by trading Jokic. They do, however, get back five 1sts, four 2nds, a 3&D backcourt running mate for Murray, young prospects, and a short term filler at the Center spot.

Murray, Suggs, Braun, Gordon, WCJ

Black, Ivey, Strawther/Watson, Isaac, Holmes
