I know if he does get traded, Dallas would definitely be one that interests him personally because that’s his hometown team."

Well duh.
Last 10 games
Goga Bitadze 16/7 with 2 blocks and 2 assists
Jalen Smith 13/8 with 1.5 blocks
plus a potential young lottery big.
Makes no sense to keep Turner, while rebuilding.
Even if Carlisle can convince the owner to go hopeless veteran play-in chasing next year, there is still the issue of his expiring contract.
In isolation I´d honestly rather have either of the young lads.
Since that won´t happen, I´m very open to Turner for THJ/Kleber.
It´s just painful to watch Maxi become the new Porzingis, the guy the opposing defense puts on ignore so they can play everybody else tight.
