TRADE: BOS gets KP+#25+2024 FRP, WAS gets Jones+Gallo+Muscala+#35, MEM gets Smart

Yeah, another big name - high dollar player goes for very little return.  Further evidence of what Ayton/Collins types should cost.  This turned out to be a Boston/Memphis trade that KP was thrown into.

If anything this trade makes me think Ayton/Collins types are worth much lower than what I've been thinking up until now. KP, despite his flaws, makes up the ideal archetype of what you want from a center in todays game with his rim protection and shooting, two skills I think he actually surpasses Ayton/Collins in.

If that kind of player only goes for end of bench guys and a 2nd rounder, then it stands to reason PHX/ATL should be paying other teams a first to just take Ayton/Collins off their hands.
