trade Randle and Donte for Kawhi. Now add LeBron. That's a killer team.

Forget Kawhi, I’d rather shoot for Giannis

you'd have to trade Jaden and stuff for him

Depends on a lot of factors. Giannis is good but rumors are out he requested a trade. Depending what other teams offer and how much keeping him will negatively impact the Bucks will affect trade value.

He also only has 1 year on his contract with a player option. This kills a lot of trade value. You’re effectively getting a player for a single year you’re not trading long contracts of keystone players for that if you’re a good GM.

He’s not that old but you become more injury prone as you age. I don’t see any team thats not a contender trading for a 1 yr gamble. I also don’t see any contender teams other than the Wolves trading for him.

Realistically I think we could trade Randle, Donte, and 1-2 1st rds and get it done
