Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[Smitty]

Collins to DET 

Sasser+Mathurin+Aldama to DAL (+1.7m) 

Klay+ Gafford to LAC (+8.9m) 

Stewart+AJ Johnson to MEM (+1.2m)

Is legal and works for all teams. Doesn’t change any really reported deals except adding the Mathurin piece. Klay makes a little sense there given they are expecting to lose Beal and they just lost Bogdanovic to the the Rockets definitely means they have a hole there.

This preserves both TPE’s for DAL and the BAE. The real issue is now the Mavs have roster spaces to worry about with a full MLE to work with.

I think I would do it. Then you have 2 spots. One for Tarik and one for Cisse. Clears a Two-Way for Ishchenko.


Kyrie | Sergio | Sasser | Nemby
Christie | Mathurin
Flagg | Naji | (Tarik)
PJW | Aldama | Martin
Morez | Lively | (Cisse)

Two-Way: Poulakidas, Lawal, Ishchenko
