Cleveland does this (according to him) bc they are out on Love and Sexton isn’t ‘the guy’ and they have the #3 pick to draft the guy so they won’t be signing Sexton.
Dallas does this for sexton as a 6th man role/2nd ball handler and Love as a player rehab in our system.
I didn’t like it at first but the more I think about it it’s not bad.
I posted this on another thread... But the real appeal of doing a Sexton trade is that you can trade him at the deadline for "more".
KP has some value but it's not significant. I think a really good scorer like Sexton who is still on a rookie deal (although you got to pay him next year) is a very attractive piece. If you do have to pay him the max, his cap hold is quite a bit less so there's some appeal on that angle.
It would be easy to send the 2022 1st out in a draft night trade to dump love as well next summer.
