Fournier could handle bench scoring if we could swing a deal for him. I don’t think the numbers work. I think Paul and Booker will stagger which will help bench scoring as well.

I do think it would be wise for Paul to load manage this year as well. Maybe rest once every 5 or 6 games to decrease his injury risk.

We don't have the salaries/contracts to match to acquire Fournier.

That's been rumored about but I don't know if it has legs.

I'm not sure what Phoenix could trade for Evan Fournier.

Unlike Hayward, Orlando Magic guard Evan Fournier has decided to exercise his player option for this season. However, this doesn't necessarily mean that he'll remain with the Magic. According to The Athletic's Zach Harper, Fournier "is trying to find his way" to a potential contender in the Western Conference.

Harper mentions the Phoenix Suns, Los Angeles Clippers and Denver Nuggets as teams that Fournier could be interested in joining.

Basically we can't do it, unless they would take Baynes, Dario, and okobo.

Then we would have no money for a backup big. It's just not going to happen.

Giannis reportedly recruited Bogdan. Apparently that wasn't enough.

Giannis Antetokounmpo was active in recruiting Bogdan Bogdanovic to join the Milwaukee Bucks in a now infamous proposed sign-and-trade that all parties have walked away from, according to a report from Sam Amick and Eric Nehm of The Athletic.

I agree it's unlikely to get Evan Fournier but it's worth noting.

Westbrook for Wall trade may get traction.

Celtics get their sign and trade for Gordon Hayward. Mainly they get a trade exception.
