If the pick is top 9 or 10 next year you will get a good player... all that stuff about a weak draft is just laughable.... you cannot get a Tatum in every draft and be a top team at the same time

Does the no4 worth the 50m dead weight for 2 years?

if you're some team like Brooklyn, that's totally worth it.
Precisely. For a team like us, no way. But if you're starved of young talent, definitely worth it
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

Let's say memphis get back 25m nonguaranteed  contracts (best case scenario imho)

And then ? Target an FA ?

agreed. 

I think it would hurt Memphis more than help but not only could I see Brooklyn doing it, but Phx as well.

Minnesota should try to sell Wiggins to them. They aren't competing for a title the next two years, so why not take a little step back and set yourself up for the future. Wiggins just isn't a good fit on that team with Teague, Butler and Towns. He takes too many shots, not a good defender and also not a great floor spacer.

Wiggins isn't a terrible player, but not really worth of his max contract. Trade him now for Parsons and after two years you clear up cap space to improve the team. In the mean time you can add a top prospect (maybe Doncic or Bagley) and hopefully Parsons can stay healthy while still being a playoff team.

Edit: or Phoenix could offer #16 pick, Warren, Knight, Chriss and '19 Milwaukee 1st (prot.) for #4 + Parsons.

Minnesota just made the playoffs for the first time since before they traded KG.  Competing for a title isn’t an end goal for every team, and certainly Minnesota needs to keep the goodwill they earned with their fans this year.

I don't think Wiggins is a crucial part of that team, although 1 or 2 wins less would have thrown them out the playoffs this year. But Towns is a franchise player and they should do everything to build a championship worthy team around him.

Teague, Wiggins, Butler, Gibson and Dieng is not enough quality nor quantity for now and they don't have many other assets to improve the team. Without Butler that team plummets and loses valuable defense and experience, while the others (Teague, Gibson and Dieng) probably don't have trade value. Therefore I'd use Wiggins to get young cheaper talent. I also think that Towns will play better (get more touches) without Wiggins and attract high quality free agents.

Memphis would agree with this deal, but why would Boston do this?

Hayward will be a key player in the pursuit for the Championship.
