My question is who is out there who is such a bad contract that they would offer a future first? I think it is easier said than done. With contracts being shorter and picks being viewed as super valuable now, who is giving up a pick for a year or two of players contract? Can anyone give me examples of names? I mean Ben Simmons but he is not an expiring and doesn't need to be moved. Lonzo ball? Isn't he expiring?
Most candidates play on their tanking rivals. Teams like the Wizards, Hornets or Jazz won't give up assets to move Poole, Bertans. Holmes or Collins.
Maybe the Warriors. Wiggins and Green combine for 50m with three years left on their contracts. Or the Lakers. Russell and Hachimura are making 17+ million each. But they cannot really afford to give up picks.
