I don't have hope it will be that "compex". No reason why Toronto would take JRich and Powell from us unless we send them assets - I don't think it would be wise to throw assets away in such a deal. My guess would be more in the line of Kleber.
If we would get a guard and THJ, I see little reason to keep Brunson. I would explore trading him for 2023 pick (OKC, NY, NO) which would give us the possibility to jump in play when next star becomes available. Powell salary will be more valuable then to salary match then now as a dump to get MLE over rMLE.
