All of a sudden, the Grizzlies have emerged as a potential suitor for Raptors center Jakob Poeltl as Toronto continues to pursue Kings star Domanats Sabonis, league sources told @ClutchPoints.
Memphis just created a TPE from this Jackson trade they can use for Poeltl.
Makes sense I guess. Maybe they can rehab like Steven Adams.
Although with that contract, you need some assets back right? Big gamble too if Poetl is finished as a useful player too.

They will definitely get paid to take Poeltl contract. It started so fast all of a sudden that it looks like half of the league will be traded this TDL

I have no idea what that may be. Good, solid player in the past. supposedly with a pretty bad back injury. 27,29, and 27 the next three years. Even if he is a productive player, I am not sure he is movable the next two years. Does one pick make that easier?

[Slater] The Golden State Warriors have involved Draymond Green in active trade conversations in advance of Thursday’s deadline, league sources told ESPN, putting his 14-season run with the franchise in jeopardy.

The Timberwolves salary dumped Mike Conley’s $10.7 million expiring contract alongside a 2026 pick swap to create more flexibility to pursue Giannis Antetokounmpo, per @ShamsCharania
The Wolves are aggressively pursuing Giannis

Seeing some of Draymond's comments recently and his past history, I think most teams trading for him would have to buy him out. He is making 27 million next year. Can't see him seamlessly fitting in to most teams. Probably not worth the hassle for most teams.

Milwaukee wants to do Giannis a favor by trading him to a team he desires to join, and the only teams on his list are Minnesota and Miami, per @TheSteinLine
Golden State is no longer on that list.

Golden State is no longer on that list. If Minny can do this, that is pretty impressive. I just find it difficult. That GM is good. I thought their roster was pretty much set two years ago. With smart moves, they have done good. Probably not a true contender for me, but they are close. Adding Giannis changes things. They will need to give up plenty though...thus I don't know how it is possible.

What is best Minny can do for Giannis? They can't trade picks. Randle, McDaniels and Dillingham? Going forward with literally zero point guards on the roster?
I don't think Milwaukee sees much value in McDaniels and Randle. I guess McDaniels can fetch three FRP. Can they get something of value for Randle? I would watch for Portland to jump in for McDaniels (since it was reported they were interested in Bridges).

With GS no longer on the Giannis list (per Stein) and Draymond in "trade talks" are we back to an AD to GSW trade??

So we just got simultaneous news that 1. the Warriors are out on Giannis, and 2. the Warriors are offering Draymond in trades? That's AD music.

Gobert, McDaniels and Reid would get them close to receiving JRue and Giannis salaries.

What would that look like? No interest in Draymond.

AD to the Warriors. Kuminga and picks to Dallas. Draymond to a 3rd team for expirings. Detroit could use a 4 and has a ton of expirings, including 2 more they just acquired.

They´ll turn JJJ into SEVEN first round picks.
Clayton Jr.
Hendricks
3 picks for JJJ
2 picks for Poeltl contract.
I hope a few locals have shat in Nico´s food and pissed in his drink. He should eat sh*t for the rest of his life.

That's the problem with trying to decipher tweets. Could easily be two different people talking about two different things.
The entire story Slater posted on ESPN says Golden State would rather move Draymond than Butler in a Giannis trade.

Based on how eager everyone here is to attach AD to any other news happening around the league leads me to believe the entire fanbase wants him gone asap.
Atlanta traded Krejci. Must be making room for AD.
Draymond on the trade block. Oh I wonder if it's for AD.
