Then again, he has that awful 5/160 contract for a guy who is a fairly mediocre rebounder and defender. Sure, he can put up 22ppg on decent shooting, but 3.8rpg is amongst the worst in the entire NBA from a frontcourt spot.He is a lot like Wood with higher BBIQ and we all know how Wood worked out-- not imagine having him on a 5/160 contract.

My vote would be to target defense/rebounding-- in that way, DFS is kind of perfect as a junk yard dog who can rebound. He doesn't need the ball, but he shoot the three when open. When not shooting, he hustles, rebounds, and defends.

I'm only for a DFS reunion if no 1st rounder is involved. He's not worth that.

Kuzma would likely require a 1st be included. Still wish the Hawks would be interested in trading Capela. Think he would crush it here.
