Bogdanovic becomes trade eligible for Atlanta tomorrow. The Hawks/Raptors are reportedly at an impasse as they try to complete a Siakam for Hunter/Griffin/Salary-to-a-Third-Team deal. The hold up is reportedly Toronto's desire for Bufkin.
If Dallas were to take on Capela and Bogdanovic, Holmes/THJ/Hardy is a salary match. You can swap Green for Hardy, but the excess salary makes it harder to keep Toronto under the tax. I'm envisioning something like:
DAL: THJ/Holmes/Hardy for Capela/Bogdanovic
TOR: Siakam/Wilson for Holmes/Hunter/Griffin/Hardy
ATL: Capela/Bogdanovic for Sikam/THJ/Wilson
Wilson is needed to keep Toronto under the tax. Dallas goes over the tax and would need to add Morris to get to 14 players after this 3-for-2 deal. They would sit just a bit under the first apron. I'd envision Capela starting (obviously) and Bogdan as the sixth man (basically taking the minutes that would have gone to both THJ and Hardy). He's not exactly an iron man which makes the Curry and Exum signings make more sense. Moving on from THJ and Hardy also gives OMax a path to minutes.
