BRUNSON BURNER: to NYK for 4yrs/$104M (no SnT) | NYK docked 2025 2nd for tampering

[mvossman]

I think I would be open to doing a sign and trade of JB to NYK if I could get TWO first round picks in return (for example, #11 this year, depending on who NYK chooses, AND the 2023 pick back from the KP trade).

If NYK cannot get the room, then the Mavs have all the leverage in the situation. I also like the Mavs just signing JB.

I can't imagine it would cost the Nicks two first to generate the room on their own.  The return on a Brunson to Nick's S&T would likely be wildly disappointing.
