We need a high degree of difficulty/high percentage shooter that will theoretically shoot even better as a 3rd option, but can also get their own shot off.
We don´t need another guy that is 100% dependent on Luka/Kyrie delivering him wide open looks that he might or might not hit based on historical evidence.
Avdija was a bad shooter in Europe. He´s a bad shooter in the NBA. You say his numbers get better with Luka/Kyrie. I say there is also a different level of defense expected against you, when you do not play on the shitty regular season "nobody bothers to play defense against them" Wizards. Teams would treat Avdija like Giddey until proven otherwise. Also given how bare the talent pool in Washington is, they won´t let him go.
Grimes is another completely unrealistic target. Okay they changed their whole FO/coaching staff, but Grimes is a good 3&D player. You match his contract just to not lose a trade asset. They need to reach the salary cap floor anyway. He´ll be valued as a 1st round pick return at the minimum by Detroit.
