The pieces/names being mentioned are Bagley - high-end throw end/TT - center from Toronto area/Haliburton - High-end prospect/lightly protected 1st round pick for Siakam.
The other trade I am hearing about which will be added to this trade is a swap between Ricky Rubio and Buddy Hield (CLE/SAC). Uneventful, I know. Another team interested in Hield, the Dallas Mavs with Finney-Smith or Josh Green being the key asset going to SAC. Dallas wants shooting. A LOT of SHOOTING, especially elite shooting. Hield will be traded probably by the end of today if not this weekend within this package."
NBASupes rumor, grain of salt...sorry if this was posted already.
Just taking this as a conversation starter, I find it highly unlikely the Mavs would trade DFS (their best defender) for Buddy Hield.
I can definitely see them trading Kleber away though in that deal, and given that SAC has big man issues themselves it kinda makes sense too.
