So the full trade might be
Bagley 11.3 + Hield 22.5 = 33.8
for
THJ 16.5 (starting salary) + Powell 11.1 = 27.6
Difference of 6.2 allows Kings to retain Holmes.
Gosh I´d love that deal so much. And the Kings even have some use for Powell as a back-up given how thin their frontcourt is.
Okay more realistically it would be Kleber, but I´d still do it. Then I´d ask for a 2nd round pick thrown in. Maybe Mavs like Woodward or Ramsey.
Give me Hield. 3/70M at age 28. THJ's career year last year wasn't as good as Buddy's career average. And Buddy hasn't played with one of the best players in the NBA yet.
