Potential trade for Nic Claxton
Thoughts on this trade? Rui’s been fairly consistent on offense (although frustrating at times too lol) and Gabe Vincent’s resurrection has been incredible to see lol. But Claxton would be a huge pickup and his salary decreases a bit over each of the next three seasons, too. He’s young, athletic, a good shot blocker and is the rim-running lob threat Pelinka wants for this team. Also, if Schroder gets bought out by the Jazz, we can try to bring him back to address our backup pg role.
Lakers are eyeing Claxton, btw.
