Most of those are BAD.
Probably Charlotte, but the picks have to include 2026,2027 and 2028, which they can do. And the 2026 has to be the highest of their multiple picks.
If all you're getting in a deal is someone like Zach Lavine and a pick in 2027, which isn't as good of a draft as 2026, then just keep AD. Much of those players aren't difference makers. Lavine, RJ Barrett, etc aren't building blocks. On the other hand, in any of those 5 trades, AD instantly becomes their best player.
And, NO, distant picks in 2029 are no bueno. This team and the fans need something NOW. Get a pick that lands in the next draft. It gives the fans something to root for now, and it nets the team a player on Cooper's timeline.
