Lakers get their athletic big man as a lob threat and to secure more rebounds in Jalen Duren.

Celtics create more flexibility by moving Porzingis and adding two depth pieces on expiring deals and add a future 1st and two 2nds for doing it.

Pistons add their needed stretch big who can defend and still serve as a lob threat. Porzingis gets resigned and becomes their big man for the next 4 years. Knecht slides into a bench version of the THJ role, and they add two Lakers 1sts for one outgoing of theirs. Resign Malik Beasley and this team is ready to rock next season with two draft picks in bound for 2026.
