I tried for a fun trade where the Phoenix Suns acquired Ben Simmons, but it wasn’t possible without a third team and that too was getting far too too complicated for a trade post who’s goal was at least being as realistic as possible.

So, again, James Jones is looking for draft picks while helping a playoff team strengthen themselves, by trading Aron Baynes for Kyle O’Quinn, Raul Neto and Oklahoma City’s 2020 1-20 protected first round pick.

The pick would probably be kept by Phoenix, although it could be packaged with their own (presumably if they are making this trade) lottery pick to move up.

Aron Baynes is an improvement over O’Quinn, and Neto just helps with the contracts and would likely be immediately waived.
