Why The Brooklyn Nets Do The Deal
Well, to be honest, it depends on the situation. If Bridges continues to have 45-point outbursts throughout the season, the Nets won’t trade him for this return.
As a matter of fact, he will probably be one of the cornerstones of their team.
On the other hand, if Bridges is more like a 3-and-D wing who can add a lot of points to the scoresheet on the right night, then this is a very decent return.
There is a lot of value in the pick they are receiving from this aging Lakers squad. This is a good deal for the Nets if it is based on Bridges’ market value, in other words, a fair deal.

They will likely want to keep him even if he exceeds this price – this is only possible if he proves to be little more than a 3-and-D wing at this point.
If that is the case, then should the Lakers even be interested in him?
