No...though there is interest from Washington to move up for Onyeka Okongwu. Which is why its funny his mock has them taking him at 9. They believe they'd have to move up to 6 or 7 to get him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a pretty big one after the draft lottery but it died down as Washington didn't like the asking price to move up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Vol4ever Posted October 7, 2020 Premium Member Report Share Posted October 7, 2020 If we pick up another monster ending contract to facilitate a trade to help other teams I'm going to go ballistic! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well to be fair, pretty much everyone "isn't interested right now" because nobody knows their cap parameters and what their rosters will be next year. Talk will pick up and offers will loosen around Nov 4th (two weeks before the draft). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren't giving up #6 to take on salary unless its a more complete player than Wiggins. If we had something in the teens, I think we'd do it. 6 is too valuable.

Lol I haven’t but what really caught my attention about the bleacher report one is that Minny 1st the hawks would get back since next years draft class is considered top notch. I know we aren’t going after assets anymore but respectively Wiggins is not the worst player to get back in such a deal . His contract is hot garbage but at the very least he gives you another wing plus comes with that 2021 pick. i wouldn’t do it! But I can see why a GM like ours would try to make sense out of it due to the 2021 draft asset we’d get back . But hey it has no legs so glad about that.

We can just buy BPA and keep 6. Even if we spent 20 mil on a player and he isn't quite as good as Wiggins. Player x + 6 is better than just Wiggins at the same salary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What type of player could that be though? Not asking for inside info, just trying to wrap my brain around the concept. Like a Tobias Harris or Hield type?

How big a contract will that be and how many years? Of the ~$42 million in capspace, how much do you allocate to actual to long term FAs vs this 'absorbing big contract?' I've been an advocate of taking on a player(s) via a trade that can actual help, preferably a player(s) that can be with the team for more than one season, but I'm ok with 1 year deals depending on the player for pure capspace. I think Schlenk still would like to retain some financial flexible for the 2021 offseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The following year we will have to extend Trae so they need to spend it this year (IMHO). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
