NBA: Two deals are reached, Irving cuts his salary to help the Mavericks strengthen, Lakers ask Wiggins

The offseason transaction came a bit fast, especially the Celtics, which solved the current problems in the team in a quick way. In addition, a three-for-three deal was reached. In addition, the Mavericks also started the subsequent operation, and they could also get room for reinforcement. There was also new news from the Lakers, but the players they were aiming for were a little unexpected. NBA: Two deals were reached, Irving cuts his salary to help the Mavericks strengthen, and the Lakers asked Wiggins for the price.

Let's take a look at the two deals first. First, Poole and CJ McClum swap their bosses. This deal is called the two who left one bad team to the other bad team, which does not help the team's improvement. But for both teams, they still get what they need. First of all, the Pelicans' lineup has become younger and more energetic. They still want to try to make a comeback in the new season. What they should think about Poole is to scrape it to see if there are any unexpected gains. After McClum comes to the Wizards, his future will be able to make more space for the team. The Wizards will have nearly 100 million in salary space in the summer of 26. It facilitates the team to start a new stage in the future.

What attracted much attention was the operation of the Celtics. In less than 24 hours after sending Holiday away, they completed the second transaction, sent Porzingis away from the three-party transaction, and got Nian and a second round pick. For them, the space for further release of this transaction allowed the Celtics to save a total of nearly 238 million. In addition, in these two deals, their lineup was also supplemented, and the young Simmons and Nian were two soon-to-play players. The key was that they did not get the first round pick; the operation of the Celtics' young coach is admirable.

Nets became the big winner in this trade. They took Mann's contract, but also obtained a first-round pick, which allowed them to have more first-round picks to further rebuild and adjust the lineup; for Mann, if Mann plays, they can keep it for themselves or choose a trade. Even if he can't play, it doesn't seem to have much impact on them.

Irving's stay and leave became one of the focus of the Mavericks' attention. In the end, Irving refused to execute the 43 million player option, but chose to cut the salary significantly and reached a three-year, 119 million contract with the team. This contract was a two-way contract for both parties. The Mavericks chose to provide Irving with time to recover from injuries, while Irving chose to reduce his salary to stay in the team, freeing up space for the team to strengthen the backcourt, so that they could use 5.7 million yuan of middle-class special cases to strengthen the backcourt.

The currently disclosed reinforcement targets are Brogdon, Schroeder, Paul and Russell. The team's potential starting lineup for the new season is Irving, Clay, Lefly, Flag and Davis. If this lineup can remain healthy in the later stage of the season, then the Mavericks in the new season may have the strength to stir up the situation in the fiercely competitive West.

The operations of other teams are making rapid progress, either trading or renewal, but the traditional strong teams such as the Lakers, Warriors, and Clippers have not made substantial progress. Earlier, there was news from the Lakers that they currently seem to view Wiggins as a potential target for signings. According to the Lakers, the team has inspected Wiggins and even learned about the trading quotes from the Heat.

Last season, Wiggins averaged 18 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game, shooting 44.8% from the field and 37.4% from three-point shooting. His salary is currently about 58 million in two seasons left. This seems to be the team preparing for the follow-up. The team's primary goal is naturally to strengthen the inside, but there is no substantial news at present that the Lakers will try their best to win any player. It depends on whether they are operating before the draft. There will inevitably be more trades in the offseason, and there will be more drafts coming next. Will there be unexpected deals before this?
