I think we kinda forgot about him, but Sexton may still be a possibility.

We could still try to trade for Brogdon (appears that he’s available)

Dinwiddie may still be an option if the Washington thing isn’t a done deal.

Devonte Graham may be a fall back option.

Schroeder

We could work ourselves possibly into some sort of 3 way trade with Portland and try to get CJ McCollum.

just trying to think of other possibilities outside of Paul (very unlikely) , and Lowry

ETA: Fischer mentioned that we (and Detroit) are in on Powell. Definitely interested in that.

ETA2: Rozier may also be available from Charlotte. Can’t imagine they are keeping Melo, Bouknight, Devonte, and Rozier. At least 1 of them is out.

Hard to tell from the tweet, but I think this is coming from Jake Fischer:

Norm Powell suitors: Detroit & New Orleans.

Sounds like the Pelicans are linked to every single free agent out there. This is getting silly.

These SGs still don't solve the creation issue. I think they move Lonzo and go with something like Dinwiddie + Powell/THJ

I think this is seeming like the most likely scenario. No Lowry, no Lonzo, but one of the other available ball handlers, and one of the shooters.

I’d been pretty happy with Powell. Solid player

I do think we downplay on here how good a player Dinwiddie is.

He’s actually a really good player.

The fit just doesn’t make sense. But I guess we’d have to see how it all unfolds.

Woj just dropped a tweet saying that the Heat are positioning themselves to land Lowry as soon as free agency begins

Lowry's long been intrigued with joining Heat star Jimmy Butler and the Miami organization, and now Miami's maneuvered to have two key elements of a possible sign-and-trade package – Goran Dragic and Precious Achiuwa -- to offer Raptors once talks can ensue at 6 PM, per sources.

Here are the Tweets

ESPN Sources: Once discussions are permitted to begin with the opening of NBA free agency on Monday, the Miami Heat are positioning themselves to become frontrunners to land Toronto's Kyle Lowry in a sign-and-trade agreement:

Is he a court leader?

Because that is the #1 priority in my books.

We desperately need a floor general on this team with a rookie coach.

He'll I would bring Rondo back

I like Dinwiddie, but he's a 30% 3 point shooter coming off a torn ACL. Just makes no sense here.
