Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

Marshall is so interesting right now. He's not good enough off the catch to be an ideal fit on a team with ball-handling figured out, but he's juuuust good enough with the ball to imagine a role could be carved out for him by a good coach that moves the needle in the right circumstances. He got a lot of runway here last season to showcase that part of his game, and while it didn't really "work" for the team, it certainly got him noticed. I'd say his stock is about as high as it will ever get right now.

If the new coach thinks he can carve out a role for him here, moving forward, I can give it an open-minded chance. I'm reluctant to trust last season's results in this area because of rookie best player, Kidd and a dozen other reasons. However, if they don't trade Marshall this summer and it turns out his fit isn't right, I feel like we'll wish they had seized this opportunity. It's going to be interesting how it turns out.
