Using Beasley as a trade piece for Murray
I keep seeing trade proposals centered around DLo and 3 FRP's for Murray, which makes sense from the fact that DLo would likely need a new team if the Wolves were to acquire Murray, but from the Spurs perspective what use would DLo be if they are embracing a rebuild? Based on aggregating several disparate reports, something like this makes much more sense to me:
Timberwolves receive: Dejounte Murray
Celtics receive: Malik Beasley (using the $17.1m Fournier TPE)\*
Spurs receive: Min '23 FRP, Bos '23 FRP, and *one* of the following: Wendell Moore, Walker Kessler, or Min '25 FRP.
\* I think several teams would trade a future lottery-protected first for Beasley, Boston has shown interest in the past and has until July 18 to use the TPE and makes the most sense as a trade partner for San Antonio.
Structuring the trade this way would give San Antonio the three first round picks they covet, as well as open up an additional $16.5m in cap space to either make a run at Miles Bridges or DeAndre Ayton, or be a dumping grounds for bad contracts and accrue more draft picks.
DLo could then be traded for two \~$14m role players (Marcus Morris and Luke Kennard, KCP and Kuzma, etc.). Even if no DLo trade arises, I think Murray could just take Pat Bev's place in the starting lineup and it would work really well.
Maybe I'm wrong about Beasley's value, or SAS would need some sweetners (pick swaps, 2nds, Naz, or Bolmaro) to accept, but if the price really is three first round picks, using one of Minnesota's guards with positive trade value makes more sense than offloading DLo to a team with no need for him.
**Edit**: Clarified the trade. Spurs would get one of Kessler, Moore, or the '25 FRP, not all three of them.
