Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

This feels more relevant now. Need to work up something for Boston.

The Celtics, Raptors, Hawks, Hornets, and Lakers are teams worth mentioning as possible suitors for Daniel Gafford.

I would say there’s an increasing likelihood of Gafford being moved this offseason.

He was signed to a deal that was structured to make it easy to trade.  One thing that sometimes happens is talks that start at one trade window can sometimes lead to deals at the next window.  That is part of why I posted a Gafford to Atlanta deal last night that included Risacher and swapping 8 and 9.  Another version would be swapping 30 for 23 and the same two players.

Personally, I don't see the need in Charlotte with two decent young centers and two picks in the teens.  Unless someone thinks we are taking back Poeltl, Toronto doesn't make sense either.
