Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

Following Stein's speculation, I suspect they're mainly in the mindset of stacking future trade assets regardless of positional fit. In that case, I think Kuminga at the right price would be worth a flier. The complication to me is that we know he can be a problem when he doesn't get the playing time he wants, and Dallas is pretty crowded at forward. So it's not without risk. But I can see it, especially if we trade away someone like PJ and/or Naji.

Thing with Kuminga is that the right ***low*** price is key. If he "doesn't work out" here, his value is only going to drop even more, and being extremely economical will be the crux of any trade value he would have left.
