Something like JRich+WCS+Burke for Kemba+2023 1st round pick.
If Mavs got a pick that would make it a little bit better. So you are sending out 19ish and taking back 36 which means you have to each 17 or so mil in cap space. You would have to make sure THJ would sign for the rest (17/yr). If you did that you only have rMLE to improve the team through FA.
So you would have Luka, Kemba, DFS, KP, Powell as likely starting 5 with THJ, Brunson, Maxi, Green as key reserves + rMLE. For that rMLE you would probably try just just add the best big or wing you could find for that money. I mean you could do worse than that deal.
Having a pick would give Mavs the opportunity to trade Maxi or Brunson + a pick for something. Maxi, Powell could be traded for Adams. Or you could try a Maxi, Powell, Brunson + pick package for Turner or something like that.
