I wonder if Lauri just does a 2+1 deal with a player option at around the MLE. The market seemed to have squeezed him and that price is about market value for a stretch big with suspect defense.
A 2+1 year deal gives him the option to go for broke in 2023 or hold and let the bird rights allow him to get paid. The MLE also is the perfect price to fit into the Mavs TPE.
Just grab the dude now even if the fit isn't quite right with KP. Can always trade either of them later.
(can y'all tell I'm all in on the Markkenen trade?)
