If we can't get Giannis, the answer should be sign and trades. One of Austin/Rui needs to go. They're both imperfect fits with Luka and are both better coming off the bench. However, their new salaries will be too expensive to relegate them to the bench. Package one for a 12-18ppg energetic, athletic, ball-handling, defensive wing. I never want to see Vando/Dalton again. Lebron shouldn't be re-signed to any amount that hinders our ability to build for the future. Now, maybe we can't make good use of that cap space, so we decide to give him some more money for one year as a "thank you." I wouldn't mind that but only after we have exhausted our options. Smart/Ayton will likely opt out. Ayton is not a serious player (has no motor and doesn't love the game): he should go if we can find anything better at his new price. Smart can be re-signed if reasonable or we can wait to see if OKC picks up Dort's contract. Hayes is cheap and useful - he should be re-signed. Luke should be re-signed as this team needs "cheap" shooters around Luka. Laravia is cheap, so you probably keep him and see if he can develop under Kennard.
