Love didn't play much last year. Injuries and the tank limited him to 25 games.
When he's playing I think he's capable of returning to that 17 ppg area shooting 45% and 37%. That's not as good as KP but he's a better rebounder. The issue is that he's just not on the floor anymore.
Why I do that trade tho. Sexton is a very good player. I think he's got significant value where as KP seems to be on the lower end. I have no idea how much that value is but I have zero doubt we can get more out of Sexton in a trade than KP.
If Bulls decide to trade Lavine at the deadline this year, it'll be very hard for them to find a trade package better than one centered around Sexton.
Also Love is definitely going to be an expiring after this year. Mavs have their 2022 1st. I don't think it's unrealistic to think that 1st and maybe a sweetener could unload Love's 28.9 expiring onto a rebuilding team. A draft night trade with the rights to the pick skirts the stepien rules.
That means you could use Sexton as part of a trade package AND reenter free agency with cap space next summer in a dream scenario. That's if you don't want to keep Sexton for yourself. He'd only be on your cap hold for 18 mill regardless of how much money he gets an RFA.
