Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[BigDirk41]

Atlanta gets a good not great player. Presti gets a trade exception and some useless 2nds. 

How is Presti a genius?

If OK waved Dort then Atlanta might not of been his preferred destination. Atlanta also finds a way of freeing themselves of Risacher in the deal. 

How exactly is Presti a genius? The Mavs got more out of this than Presti did. They got a #1 pick for the 12th man on their bench.

Because a lot of people assumed Presti would have to spend assets this summer to unload some of their players due to their cap implications. He gained assets instead of losing them. That's why it was "genius."
