If you can't get something attractive for Brunson now, there is always the trade deadline. Injuries happen or a would-be contender could be looking for a little extra sugar.
To me a stretch waive of Powell while keeping Brunson is the better option to open up a little more cap space. They could also have a Brunson+Powell taker ready, then turn it into a 3-way deal with a S&T to Dallas of up to $17.8M.
