Seeing the problems that Cleveland has in the locker room, could Dallas get involved and take advantage (I mean help out) Cleveland.
From Dallas this works as 2 separate trades to keep the balances under $19.6 million.
Dallas trades: Dwight Powell, Iwundu, and Tyrell Terry (CLE) + #1 pick (~ '25) to CLE and #2 pick to ORL (for Gordon + K.P.Jr)
Orlando trades: Mo Bamba (CLE) and Aaron Gordon (Dal) (for Drummond; 2 #1 picks; and a 2nd rd pick + Jalen Brunson)
Cleveland trades: Andre Drummond and 2 #1 picks to Orlando (for Powell, Bamba, Iwundu, and Terry + a Dallas 1st)
In a separate trade: Dallas trades Jalen Brunson to ORL; ORL diverts Terry/minimum player to CLE; CLE ditches Kevin Porter JR. to DAL
To make the first trade work for Orlando: Terry has to go to ORL in the initial trade of Drummond and then goes to Cleveland in the Brunson trade to Orlando OR Orlando also has to trade a minimum salaried player to take on Brunson
From Dallas' perspective the Gordon trade works by less than 20k.
Orlando gets a PG and 2 picks for Gordon and Drummond
Cleveland gets considerable salary savings this season, solid locker presence in Powell, and a young piece in Terry for the NET cost of ONE 1st rd pick and Powell's salary rolling forward.
