Trade & FA 2024-25:

[KillerLeft]

Stein has said he's the most likely Pacer to be traded.

Any idea from Stein what Indiana might be looking for? Because, as much as I like Toppin (and I really do), his role here would be first big off the bench at best. He's not better than PJW, and my guess is that he wouldn't play ahead of Gafford, either, making him no better than 4th in the pecking order at the 4/5. Possibly equal to Gafford in role, but possibly not even. 

That's an improvement for the Mavs, but maybe not worth what it might cost to get him, right? I like the player, but wouldn't want to give up Grimes for him, just as an example.
