Some interesting information.
Charlotte might be interested to move Hayward. One option is Westbrook and pick, but of course Westbrook doesn't fit at all. They still need legit center and Turner is mentioned, but Indy probably wants to keep him now. Charlotte also needs to find a defensive identity. I like Hayward a lot but I doubt Charlotte would be willing to part with assets to trade him and I am not really keen on gutting our roster for him as multipley valuable expiring salaries would be needed to match that contract. Unless Charlotte would be interested in THJ. Than perhaps a common ground could be found. I think Washington would be great for us, but he has been really good lately, so I doubt they will be looking to trade him. THJ and Kleber for Hayward seems like a decent deal. Two good bench guys for one often injured starter. Mavs would desperately need to find a center.
Indiana is mentioned in the Westbrook trade with Hield and Brogdon going to LA. This is something I don't get. In this case, if I am Indy, I am buying out Westbrook, tank hard for top pick and enter 2022/23 with huge cap space. But can Indy really use that cap space? Stars don't flock to losing teams. On the other hand, dumping Westbrook should cost a pick on its own. Hield has been awesome for Indy and should be a neutral value. Brogdon should be worth at least a FRP, although he is often injured. Best LA can offer is 2027 and 2029 picks. It seems it would make more sense for Indy to sell Hield and Brogdon separately.
