Gabe and JHS for Caruso. 🥹

To get LaVine it would need to be DLo + Rui + JHS and likely picks to match Salaries and get interest.

If AC is thrown in that includes either Prince & (2 of Max/Jax/Cam). Or Gabe by himself.

Somehow Max would find himself in the deal too.

Could be done. But a riskier move than staying put.

Gotta remember they are hard capped

I wouldn't give that up for Lavine when you can potentially get a better player in Mitchell for the same price

Has a higher value than LaVine. So there will be a bunch of mixing and matching to get Cavs to think it’s equal value.

Outside of AR. Lakers don’t really have much of anything in super valuable pieces. Most of their pieces are significantly more valuable to LA than they are to anybody else.

Mitchell is on a budget contract and only 1 year left after this one. Cavs won't get a good return no matter who they trade with and most playoff teams don't have any assets left to give up. Cleveland only gave up Lauri (before he was good) Sexton and picks to get him

It's not more of a risk as this squad as isn't really good enough to compete for a chip.
 
Lavine contract goes until 2027, so just got to be prepared to have him for the long term.. Derozan has really fallen off and has lost a step IMO, but his contract is expiring.

Would prefer a smaller trade: Gabe + JHS for AC. Caruso would fill Gabes same role as a "3/D" guard, just Caruso does it better.
