Significantly less money than taking on Turner, gives them young depth and Stewart would be fine there not being an offensive option given the Suns didnt seem to utilize Ayton anyways on that end. Its not elite return but its solid pieces and still gives Detroit leverage to move Grant for a pick. they would absolutely not do this 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Grant trade will have to happen within the next week if he's going to be moved for a pick but it sounds like the Blazers have cooled on him. Ayton also has to be interested in going wherever they S&T him and the Raptors/Hawks are reportedly interested and can offer significantly better pieces back. Turner is also a significantly better pieces that allows them to stay in contention in the West. If the Suns want an 8/8 guy they could just sign Mitchell Robinson in free agency. I personally just don't see any scenario that Ayton lands with the Pistons if Grant isn't included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted June 16, 2022 Author Share Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) Quote Wizards have inquired about Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Dejounte Murray and Malcolm Brogdon? But, sticking to the theme of Sheppard’s comments from April, Washington has also cast a wide net in hopes of pairing a more established floor general beside Beal. League sources say they’ve checked in with Oklahoma City regarding Shai Gilgeous Alexander, San Antonio regarding Dejounte Murray, and Indiana regarding Malcom Brogdon. Beal is believed to welcome the acquisition of either three, I’m told Edited June 16, 2022 by NYRaider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 If Indiana can get the 10th pick for Brogdon, they gotta do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Suns don't want to pay him, and albeit Stewart took a step back this year, is a good enough role player on a cheap deal given his production.

Pacers would be dumb not to do that if offered. Take AJ Griffin at 6 (assuming Murray and Ivey go 4/5), Jeremy Sochan at 10, trade Turner for Ayton in a S&T. Haliburton Duarte Griffin Sochan Ayton Is a stellar young core. Edited June 16, 2022 by beekay414 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also gives them a clean slate financially outside of the Ayton deal but they'd have all of those guys under control for the foreseeable future.

brownie man Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 With all the talk about trying to get a team to Vegas I think a smart move could be Bring a team back to Seattle Start a team in Vegas both both of them in the western conference put Memphis in the east. thats 32 teams now. I think that’d be the way to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
