Let's expand the Fox-for-Franz-trade and make it a little bit more interesting


FAILED

Because of Fox' contract extension, this trade is only possible after February 4th (two days before this season's trade deadline).

Fill in the gaps with draft picks if and wherever you deem necessary. Imo, ORL would probably need to be incentived with some 1RP(s) from DAL and 2RPs from SAN to do that trade. AD's max contract takes up 35% of the cap, while Fox' and Banchero's extensions will count for 30% and 25% of the cap respectively. Factor in Bane's contract and this is a very expensive roster that needs to be filled up with cheap, cost-controlled rookie deals and (near-)minimum contracts. A risky win-now-move by ORL given AD's injury and availability history (though at least similar injury/availability concerns apply to Suggs who, in this scenario, ORL sends to DAL).

Quick note on the Dallas side: Olynyk is on an expiring contract, Jonathan Isaac's multi-year contract is only and partially ($8m) guaranteed for next season. Effectively, with such move DAL can create significant cap space for next season(s) that it then can use to sign quality free agents or take on bad contracts in return for draft picks. This follows the idea of DAL starting a rebuild around Flagg, giving up the two-year championship window Harrison enviosioned for that post-Luka-trade iteration of the team centered around AD and Kyrie.
