Let's stop the madness, and target players at the right price, age, and fit. Forget Collins. Forget Ayton. Here is my prescription...
Use these assets to return the players below:
2023#10
2025 FRP
2028 FRP
Bertans
THJ
Bullock
Maxi
McGee
Morris
Powell (outgoing S&T)
MLE
Ivica Zubac (26yo, $22.6m over 2yrs)
Naz Reid (incoming S&T, $39m over 3yrs - my estimate)
Alex Caruso (29yo, $10.2m over 2yrs)
Tari Eason (22yo, $12.6m over 3 yrs)
Zach Collins (25yo, $7.7m 1yr)
Christian Wood (resign, $45m over 3 years - my estimate)
Luka, Caruso
Kyrie, Hardy
Green, Eason
Collins, Wood
Zubac, Reid
Sixth Man: Caruso or Wood depending on matchups and game flow
That is an incredibly balanced 10-man rotation. Youth mixed with Vets. Defense with offense. 2 max contracts with all reasonable concracts.
