Teams with pressure to win and “win now” in the playoffs could make a play for Dillon Brooks and that’s exactly what we have in this three-team scenario.

The Memphis Grizzlies could look to acquire reclamation project Mo Bamba.

Bamba is a 23-year-old center from the University of Texas who has yet to find his footing in the NBA since being drafted sixth overall in the 2018 NBA Draft. He has a career average of 6.4 points per game and 5.2 rebounds per game thus far.

Gary Harris would come over in the trade to help match salaries in this three-team deal. Harris only played 39 games last season after being traded from the Denver Nuggets.

The Orlando Magic would take on the huge contract of Al Horford, but in exchange for doing so, could get a couple of young prospects in Brandon Clarke from the Memphis Grizzlies and Romeo Langford from the Boston Celtics.

The Celtics, in turn, would be receiving two playoff-tested players in Dillon Brooks and Tyus Jones. The two players would give depth and the ability to have a “small ball” line-up to keep up with teams like the Brooklyn Nets in the playoffs.
