Saying Bruce may be a prime candidate to be re-routed. I wonder what contenders will be willing to give up. Has a large salary this year, so matching could be tough. But is unguaranteed next year. Could a team offer a expiring plus first for him? Probably wouldn't except for the pick hoarding teams who have picks galore.
The highest and best use would be a second apron team that wants to move a salary off their books before next season but still end up with a reasonably useful player. Brown for Wiggins as the core of a deal?
That would block path they now have to summer cap space (about $30mm). So, compensation plus the incoming player would need to be as good enough to compensate for sitting out the free agent class this summer.
