Just seen this trade idea on that app. Not worried about that trade being not good for either team but they doing a sign and trade with a 24 pick.

As far as I’m aware no s&t till after the “new” season July 1st? Which is obviously after draft.

Unless they send the player I suppose!

Orlando Magic receive: Zach LaVine
Chicago Bulls receive: Markelle Fultz (sign-and-trade), Moritz Wagner and a 2024 second-round pick

If the Magic waive Jingles, they'll have the cap space to absorb Lavine, I'm not sure they'd want to, they can S&T Fultz if the Bulls want him.

I cant see Orlando doing this. We need a PG more than a SG, but assuming you slide Suggs over to PG, Orlando would want more of a 2-way player, paying $40mil+ for the next 3 years. I would rather go after Simons who makes $20mil less/year.

Bleacher Report, and many other sites that allow most anyone or blog site to write under their name, rarely understand cap and league rules, and they aren't checked by a real editor or knowledgeable writer for legality or accuracy. Those blogs and writings exist solely to get a writer to their minimum monthly posts or to up their clicks to get them paid.

You can't sign and trade a player before the moratorium. The Bucks were punished in Bogdan"s deal.
