Grizzlies receive:
James Harden - $24.68M (2023)
Al Horford - $12M (2026)
Jeff Green - $0.25M (2027)
$10M covered on James Harden
2024 2nd (IND)
2025 2nd (DEN)
Raptors receive:
Desmond Bane - $3.85M (2023) RFA
Donte DiVincenzo - $6M (2026)
Kyle Anderson - $16M (2025)
Lonnie Walker - $3.5M (2023), $6.5M (2026)
2026 1st (MEM)
Accept.
Liking what I'm seeing from Harden now that he's comfortable in LA - sucks to lose Bane, but Harden's ceiling is still higher. I also like adding Horford to pair with KP. I like Kyle Anderson and Dibitchenzo, but cutting the future cap should be a net positive next year.
Thanks Perk, best of luck.

I accept, when my team got out of the gates slow I felt like I had to get a little younger just in case. (Lonnie to IR). Thanks Royce, best of luck

Approve. Actually like this for Perk, he badly needed a plethora of assets and I think he accomplishes it easy with this deal. Bane is a very nice asset as well and I think DVV and Lonnie can double as valuable members of his team going forward or trade bait for picks. I think this makes Royce’s team this year very nasty but leaves a lot of ? for the future.

Royce is absolutely all in, and while I think that’s great I’m not sure if going all in before the deadline is wise. That being said, he gets best player (for now) and some depth. He better hope Al retires though and doesn’t become a 3rd stringer somewhere. The grizz pick could be nice but I still think Royce is relevant in a few years. Approve.

Love this for perk and think hes finally making moves that make a ton of sense for the direction of his franchise. I legit would have liked this for him even without the 2026 first. But that being in there too is even sweeter! Royce better hope Harden is legit but I get not wanting to resign Bane on an insane contract when he’s playing 30% of the season without Ja and who knows where his usage will go rest of year. Great job Perk! Now go get some more firsts!

Love this for Perk but that doesn't mean it doesn't work for Royce. Think everyone above nailed it. Love the recent deals going up, lets keep it rolling. Approve

Approve.
This is a ballsy deal for Royce which has now just become the norm and I think it cements the Grizz as a top 3 title contender this season.
Really do like this deal for Perk, although I don't see Bane ever getting much higher from an fppg standpoint than he is right now. The '26 first is a great pull and Raps should be able to do some deadline dealing to get more value back for SlowMo, DDV, and Lonnie. If he plays his cards right, there's a real scenario where Perk nets Desmond Bane + 3 or 4 first round picks for an expiring Harden.
