Cam Johnson fits that.
The question is, do you trade both Maxi and Gafford for Johnson and Bruce Brown? Does that make you better?
Losing Gafford would be huge tbh.
I think for the Nets, Gafford and Maxi are just salary. They would want at least one first and probably a young player, I think. I think Johnson is going to have a lot of suitors.
One name that has perked up in my head recently is Marcus Smart. If Memphis makes a trade for a Cam Johnson type player, I wonder if Dallas could be a third in that trade. It would probably take our first, but I am not sure Brooklyn wants more firsts in this draft. I am not even certain Smart is still good, but I am just looking for someone who causes fits for other teams.
