KP/DFS for Wiseman/Wiggins/#7
KP is a massive upgrade over Wiseman (especially in their system and on their timeline) and would make their 5-out lineup as potent as ever. DFS is also IMO a perfect complement to their other star power, as he plays great defense and hits corner 3s with no drama. He would step right into Wiggins' role at a tiny fraction of the cost. Add it up, and I'd argue that the deal improves Golden State right away and also saves them money (no small thing with their luxury tax situation). Thus the additional pick.
Dallas would start Wiseman at center. Wiggins would be the natural SF assuming he doesn't continue his career arc as the contract ballast in yet another deal. Maybe they keep the pick, or maybe they cash it in for another player via trade. But either way, that's the type of deal that helps move the team forward while building up the asset chest.
Wiseman I think isn't very good which is a probably I'd like to not inherit. I do believe GSW has the ammunition to get a bigger deal than KP for Wiggins + picks and maybe Wiseman (including Dame even).
To me KP for Wiggins maybe is possible if the Warriors strike out on bigger deals but I am not positive Mavs want Wiggins.
