I wonder if we can cook up a 3 team trade where Mavs send Gafford to the Lakers, Austin Reaves gets sent to a 3rd team, and the Lakers 2031 pick plus a different guard gets sent to the Mavs.
Maybe Coby White? Lonzo Ball like FGump has mentioned as well. I can see the Bulls really like Reaves and pairing him with Giddy
I like the creativity, but I don't think this would happen. Reaves value is way higher than Gafford value, imho. Gafford was basically had for a pick swap (pick swap was traded to OKC for their end of 1st round FRP in 2024) and a very bad Holmes contract. No way he is worth Lakers 2031 pick. White and Reaves are very similar players on more or less same deals, so not sure why Bulls would trade one for the other. Or try playing one with the other.
