I think their best bet is to circle back to Tor to try and get OG, but Masai seems intent on saying he’s available while not making him available. Wonder if Por would do Jrue and Sharpe for OG though. That could fairly quickly become a team to look out for if all those pieces mesh well.
Scoot/Simons/OG/Grant/Ayton
Really good starting group if Ayton and Scoot play up to their potential.
I would be surprised if Portland is interested in moving Sharpe. He is probably a tad behind Scoot as an untouchable to Portland. I saw a note earlier that Portland may try to move Grant once he is trade eligible. That makes sense. But that contract is going to really water down his value.
I expect Portland to go the long view. they have a few other interesting younger players, but next year is to see Scoot and Sharpe have fun and hopefully get to Ayton.
