    So there are changes to the CBA that will come into affect that make the trade make more sense. Their trade options become more limited moving forward and splitting Aytons deal now will let them pickup someone at the trade deadline. Waiting could have meant that trading him would be impractical if not impossible, and if the off court issues got bad enough that coaches wanted to bench him they couldn’t really afford to.

    That said this is insanely low value for him. I can’t believe there wasn’t a team willing to give up anything decent for him, but I can’t imagine doing this deal without exhausting other options.

    Hopefully you guys can figure out a way to get a few more quality role players on the team.
