- Young: a little better than first group of guys for me, but I wouldn't pay much for him. Wright and GSW 2nd is more than fair value. Lee+GSW2nd is good.
Given Young's contract runs two more years, I don't think you have to give up anything of value. In fact, Lee for Young straight up probably requires some kind of a tip on Chicago's part. Not sure which reporter said we might have interest in a veteran locker room leader (check) who can play the 3 or the 4 (check) and scores about 15 a game (exactly Young's career per 36 scoring number). But other than his 21/22 contract number Young is a pretty good fit. He'd be that guy you'd put on Leonard or Lebron in playoff games against the LA teams.
The thing that draws me to Chicago is I really like Sato (or Saty if you are from Europe) and think he's a better fit than Wright. That would be the tip for me. Lee for Young and Wright for Sato. As I often say, someone smarter than me can figure out the picks required, if any.
