SMALL – 2018 2nd round pick (via Toronto) for Luc Richard Mbah a Moute

The Suns get a defensive minded stretch forward that would be a good mentor for Marquese Chriss. Chriss has more potential that Luc displayed in his career but Luc has been on 6 teams and knows what it’s like to have obstacles.

BIG – Troy Daniels, Alex Len and a 2018 1st round pick (via Miami) for Clint Capela

Houston gets a solid center they could probably pay less this summer that would give them similar numbers and productivity along with a 3 point shooter to help their style of play and a 1st round pick. Phoenix gets the rights to match any offer for Capela (a top 10 rebounder and shot blocker and arguably the best finisher in the league) this summer.
