Blazers have the 3rd pick, time to rebuild around the young core they have started to build. But as a nod to Dame’s allegiance to the Blazers send him somewhere he wants to go, with a chance to win. They also save $40m in salary.

Spurs take on Simmons and get a 1st for their trouble. Simmons might be done, but if anyone is going to get him back on track Pop & Brett Brown can. If he’s not done, then the Spurs add a 26 year old point guard very cheaply.

For the Nets they add Dame whilst keeping other assets to make further deals.
