Just a note to mention that the idea and ease of doing Ingram for Kessler+ completely changed with the Markkanen deal.
Because UT has now spent most of its cap room, the fit of the deal and motivations for both teams are much less.
NO still could definitely use a C, and also some salary reduction. How the specific salary match numbers work now, and what that does to the window to build a win-win trade that might excite both teams (if there is one) --- that's a question I haven't had time to explore yet. But it's not as obvious a fit anymore.
