Depends on….
1. Price
2. Context

If he comes at discount and doesn’t destroy our ability to add anyone else, maybe….but would have to be pretty cheap. Also, what is going on with him anyway? Why is he losing playing time? Why is he asking for trade in November? If it comes out that he is a problem / locker room cancer, do we want that here? What I f he arrives and starts demanding top-4 minutes?

Stylistically he does not seem like a fit at all. And it doesn’t seem like he would be the type Fitzy would target (Lindy would probably like him more).

I believe this is typical Fitzy smokescreen.
