This is about the only JA trade I've seen that I'd consider...and its cause of that #10 pick...
I think the only draft ones I'd actually consider would probably be with Orlando or Houston. Keep in mind, I'm just looking at these as frameworks so they may need other pieces to even out. Something like:
- Allen & Okoro for Sengun & #4
With the amount of cap space Houston has, they could make this trade and still have space to sign a max contract player if they wanted to. Allen & Okoro fit the identity Udoka is going to want to establish and both are still young. The Rockets don't have any type of rim protection or a perimeter defender, so both pieces actually fit. Cavs get an offensive-minded big that can facilitate. Sengun has also shown the ability to step out of the paint and shoot the ball, though his range isn't extremely deep yet. I'd probably try to flip #4 for a wing or a combination or rotational pieces. If I couldn't do that, Jarace Walker might interest me the most at that slot.
- Allen for Wendell Carter Jr & #11
#11 is likely putting us out of the range of some of the guys that'd be good rotation pieces, but the pick could be flipped in another deal for a wing(s). I'm guessing the Magic wouldn't value JA that much higher than WCJ, but who knows?
