Trade Spurs Trade Ideas

[Vienna]

Wiggins would be a nice upgrade to Barnes, but I understand Wiggins has a PO this summer. can anyone see him not use it?
he will go for a 3 or 4 years contract, maybe around 100 million, something like Gordon or Randle got.
he either plays well for his new team, then he will get those offers, or he plays bad, doesn't receive such offers and decides to opt in for 26/27.
either scenario doesn't fit the Spurs plans.
Spurs won't have the longterm money (unless they replace Vassell with Wiggins), so trading for Wiggins will be a rental.
and Miami won't let him go for just expirings and 2nd rounders.

Grant Williams continues to be my sneaky top target that shouldn't cost much. He's only played 58 minutes so far this season but his advanced stats are massively positive playing on a bad Hornets team. Burly, tons of playoff experience, contract expires after next season, only 27 years old and shouldn't cost that much.

58 minutes this season? yeah I'm out

He just started playing this season after returning from a knee injury. Hornets have Kon and TJ so Williams doesn't fit their roster right now.

What's his contract rn?

$13M this and the next season.
I'd also take a chance on him, 1:1 trade with Olynk or even Sochan+McLaughlin, we add a SRP or two.

He's got playoff experience, is young enough and would be a great backup PF if he can get back to his peak level.
If not, he'll be an expiring contract next season.

Yeah I wouldn't mind it for a reasonable price.

Grant Williams tore his ACL, his meniscus and I'm not sure if something else, and he hasn't proven anything yet. It's quite a leap of faith to assume he'd be a contributor for the Spurs this year, and I don't think he's a long term piece either. Not a fan.

He'd be cheap and checks a lot of boxes for us.

Boston Williams would, there's no guarantee he'll get there soon (or ever) given how bad his injury was. Also, remember he was salary dumped by Dallas when he was healthy. IMO Spurs can do better with Olynyk's expiring.

Hornets give worrisome injury update on Josh Green and Grant Williams

The Hornets gave an injury update on both players as media day started.

Charlotte Hornets forward Grant Williams sustained season-ending tears to the ACL, meniscus and associated ligaments in his right knee, sources told ESPN on Sunday.

Sorry, but that sounds horrific. ACL + meniscus + multiple other ligaments in his knee is a deal breaker to me.

Being traded for PJ Washington isn’t a salary dump. My objection is that like Barnes, he doesnt rebound the position. We already have a better version of Grant. His name is Keldon.
