Drawing the No. 1 pick, 1.8% chance of changing fate against the will of heaven? The three-party trading speculation triggered the alliance, and Irving s return to the future becomes the key!

The Mavericks fans who have been silent for more than 100 days have ended up rekindling their hopes. At the draw recently, the Mavericks received the favor of the goddess of luck and drew the No. 1 pick with a 1.8% chance, and will get another talented young man Fleiger. In this way, the healthy lineup in the 25-26 season will be Irving + Klay Thompson + Flagg + Davis + Levley.

As we all know, Irving will not be able to return to the team due to injury around January next year. The Mavericks urgently need a star-level point guard to make up for the vacancy of Irving during this period. Sam Quinn of CBS Sports recently gave a guess on a three-party transaction:

Mavericks-Anfini Simmons Jr.

Lakers-Daniel Gafford

The Trail Blazers - Maxi Cleber + Caleb Martin + Dalton Knecht + Dwight Powell + the three future first-round picks

This three-party transaction will not only save the Mavericks $2 million in salary, but also make up for the vacancy in the point guard position. Even if Irving returns to the team due to injury, Simmons Jr. will also have a strong partner with Irving because he can play without the ball or hold the ball. Perhaps, many fans will say that Gafford, who has excellent offense and defense for two seasons, should not be sent away. In fact, among the three inside players, he can only be traded.

Simmons Jr. + Irving + Flag + Davis + Leifley's starting five tigers are obviously more suitable in terms of both offense and defense. In this deal, the Trail Blazers can not only get potential scorer Knector, but also get the next three first-round picks. More importantly, eating middle-class contracts like Cleber, Martin, and Powell will help the team rebuild. The Trail Blazers in the 25-26 season will form the starting five tigers of Sharp + Avdia + Kamara + Grant + Ayton, which is also very interesting.

The Lakers can get Goverd in the trade, and in addition to making up for the weaknesses in the inside, they can also stabilize Doncic. However, if the Lakers want to strive for the championship in the 25-26 season, it is not enough to introduce Goverd just, and they also need a shooter. The five starting points of the Lakers in the 25-26 season will be Doncic + Vincent + James + Hachimura + Gafford.
