Trade Rating:

Trailblazer: B

Sent: Nikir-Alexander-Walker, Thomas Satoransky,

Got: Joe Ingles, Elijah Hughes, 2027 Jazz second-round picks

The Trail Blazers have a large group of defenders, Alexander Walker is not suitable for the team system, and Thomas Satoransky's contract is about to expire, with a certain deal value. Joe Ingles played well last season, with the Best Sixth Man selection second only to teammate Jordan Clarkson. On January 31 of this year, he suffered a season reimbursement from ACL.

Ingles' contract expires on June 30 and he will make $14 million this season. If Ingles renews his contract with the Blazers, as the league's top three-point shooter and good organizer, he can provide diverse needs to match different lineups. If Ingles chooses to leave the team, the Blazers will continue to free up salary space, and the team can find suitable replacements in the free market.

Overall, with the last three deals, the Blazers have been able to secure a luxury tax this season, and the offseason is expected to clear up huge salary space. The transaction served management's intended purpose. Josh Hart is a great addition to the team.

If the Pelicans fail to win the lotto draw or make it to the playoffs, the Blazers will have two lotto picks in the draft, and the prospects for rebuilding next season are very good.

Spurs: A

Sent out: Juan Jo Hernangomez

Got: Thomas Satoransky and 2022 second-round pick (from the Grizzlies)

Neither Hernangomez nor Satoransky is in spurs' future team building plans. From the perspective of immediate combat strength, the Spurs do not need to add a defender at present, and the Spurs need to strengthen the depth of the interior line. Satoransky, as a high guard, does not make up for the current Spurs' weaknesses. After all, on the guard line, the Spurs have new All-Star Dejuntai Murray, and Derek White and Lonnie Walker can carry the ball. Satoransky's salary is $3 million higher than Hernangomez's, but both men are on expiring contracts, a difference that doesn't exist until the offseason. The Spurs are equivalent to a net second-round pick, which should also be the spurs' most important thing in this deal.

It is not known whether the Spurs will continue to trade with Satoransky or choose to cut him, no matter what the follow-up operation, with a marginal rotation player for future assets is earned.

Jazz: B-

Sent out: Joe Ingles, Elijah Hughes and two second-round picks

Received: Nikir-Alexander-Walker, Juancho-Hernangomez

It was a good deal for the Jazz. The Jazz sent Ingles, who was reimbursed for the season, and Hughes, who was outside the rotation, in exchange for Alexander Walker, who could immediately enter the rotation and had some potential. Hernangomez is also a great addition to the Jazz's outside line. After the trade, the Jazz's immediate combat power has improved.

Alexander Walker's performance this season has indeed been less efficient, but when he leaves the Pelicans' youthful and chaotic environment and moves to the more mature Jazz, the performance may improve. Walker is a good ball-holding point and he's able to create his own chances. His shooting is not good, but from past experience, the outside players will improve after coming to Schneider's team. Under the Jazz's mature tactical system, Walker will have a good improvement. If developed well, he could move in the direction of the off-the-bench ball-holding core, and if development didn't go as expected, Walker could also be a no-ball wing player. The Jazz bench, driven by both Walker and Clarkson, will be more impactful. Walker is still on a rookie contract, and the Jazz have a variety of options for him in the future.

Even if Walker eventually had difficulty integrating into the Jazz immediately, the price paid by the Jazz was not large. Considering that Ingles has been reimbursed for the injury season and the value of the transaction has been damaged, Hernangomez's contract next year is not guaranteed, and the Jazz really pay only two second-round picks. This is a temporary combat power increase that is not too costly. (NBA official website)
