looking around he league the only backup 4's that make sense are Portis and DFS (i know he is a wing but he is big enough to play small ball 4).
For Portis, involving a team like Brooklyn makes sense because you could send them Maxi and a second. Then send Exum to the Bucks. Brooklyn can send a cheaper wing to the Bucks like Zaire Williams or Shake Milton. The Bucks then improve their back court defense and depth. I think it is a hard sell but the point is invoilving a third team to take Maxi and provide the Bucks with depth.
As for DFS, it is as simple as Maxi/ Exum & Morris along with a couple seconds for DFS. Not sure what they want for him but they gave Schroeder away for 3 seconds so unless a team i desperate i don't see them getting a first. especially if DFS threatens to excercise his PO (i doubt he does but the threat will decrease his trade value).
If you wanted to get a third team in a DFS deal, Atlanta could easily turn Nance into Maxi and Exum. they get Nance's spiderman meme and more defensive depth in their backcourt. Brooklyn could try to dlip nance this year or let his money fall off the books and pick up a second or two for their trouble.
