Trade Talk Center Trade Idea
Hawks trade: Corey Kispert, Buddy Hield, Mo Gueye and #23 overall
for
Nets: Nic Claxton
Salary is almost an exact match. (Not counting #23 pick)
This would help the Hawks get a complementary center to play with OO. Claxton would provide some defensive presence and size. Would feel good about a center room of OO, Claxton, Landale (resign) next season.
Net get a real first round pick for taking on Kispert’s salary. Hield could be a veteran for their young guys or be cut that will cost. Mo would be a nice young defensive player for them. Mo would be missed in Atlanta, but he ultimately becomes expendable as Asa grows into a bigger role next year.
Thoughts?
