Poeltl/Powell
Maxi/Crowder (or visa versa)
Green/Reggie
Irving/THJ
Luka/Irving
The assumption being that we work out a long term extension as part of the trade? Can Poeltl play a switch heavy defense? That is part of the appeal of Ayton. Ayton is also younger and likely hasn't peaked yet. Also, if I am going to spend a very valuable pick and 20 mil, I would prefer that player to be able to hit a free throw.
