    All of those players are legitimate NBA proven rotation players. Cam is not. Zero chance cam gets traded for those guys without multiple picks.

    They would all take one good pick and some Braun, Daniels would take 2.

    These guys are way out of the Rockets league for trading Cam. Someone like Ayo Dosunmu from the Bulls is much more realistic.

    No, he won't, he hasn't got the IQ of those players. He is score first and always will be

    It would take more than that to get Daniels and Braun.

    Then you pass. They aren’t worth more.

    If I were running the Pacers, I would get Cam with Hali done for the season, inflate his value, and move him for assets later. Are they really going to want to pay the money Neismith is going to command? They might as well get off of him now and develop another prospect.

    Rockets need to aim for a 2028 pick back.

    Braun would be elite on this team. 3&D SG with finishing ability.
    Daniels would be redundant but Ime would love him

    Can't see Denver being interested in giving up Braun unless they're getting a rotation upgrade out of it. He's great though.

    Dosunmu is a good young guard but can’t shoot.. The bulls have to get rid of someone with Coby White, Giddy, Ayo and a newly resigned Tre Jones

    Yeah, it’s not realistic at all.

    Super unlikely Cam gets traded for a player of value back. A huge part of Whitmore's appeal as an asset is that he is so cheap, so he is very desirable to teams that have few financial avenues to get players of his talent level.

    Those teams aren't going to send us back a different cheap player who can actually play.... they need those guys.

    We're going to get back an empty roster spot and some kind of future draft capital. And we'll fill that roster spot with a minimum signing who is happy to be a 10th man.

    Cam is about to get Kuminga’d, if they don’t find a trade. For Cams sake, I hope he lands in a good situation. Dude is too talented for that bs.

    The Hawks would hang up the phone instantly and die laughing if you offered Whitmore, one first-round pick and Nate Williams for Dyson Daniels. That’s a garbage offer for one of the league’s best defenders.
