As the NBA Finals are heading into Game 3 on Wednesday, the other 28 teams in the league are already planning for offseason moves in efforts to play their way into June next season.
For the Charlotte Hornets, they’re first priority this summer, outside of finalizing their next head coach, is to resign restricted free agent Miles Bridges, who is coming off a borderline All-Star caliber season. Alongside retaining Bridges, an upgrade in the middle is a must for Mitch Kupchak and company.
Eric Waldon of the Salt Lake Tribune came up with a Utah Jazz trade with every NBA team, and for the Hornets, that proposed trade landed them a three-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year in a blockbuster deal.
