They have Fox/Castle/Harper and availability at their forward spot and need a bonified scorer.

Idk how you watch this team and think the best way to get better would be to trade their best player

There are better players. Trading one for the other is a thing that frequently happens in the NBA, LOL

Also, not for nothing, but his vibes are fucking awful and the way he generates offense isn’t great, either. He also had significant problems even generating that offense the way he liked for over a month post all-star break; and that could just be a down period, sure, could be that Splitter STILL doesn’t seem to know how to create/craft a working halfcourt offense, could have just been personnel shortages - or it could be signs that this dude has either already hit, or is just about to hit, his ceiling. In which case, yeah, think about selling high.

A blockbuster trade with him packaged up in it, isn’t a bad notion to pursue. That doesn’t mean he should automatically be sent packing by any means necessary, or that scraps should be accepted in exchange for him, because that’s dumb as fucking rocks. That’s not what I’m saying.

but behaving as if Deni fucking Avdija is somehow an untouchable blue-chip asset when he’s ALSO a bad-vibes foul merchant (who can’t reliably hit his fuckin free throws!) that sometimes sucks all the air out of a game… I dunno. There are better players than Deni Avdija out there, and I think it’s a good idea to see what you could get for him.
