Three-team pitch sends Keldon Johnson to Lakers, Fox to Dallas

A hypothetical three-team trade would send Keldon Johnson and John Poulakidas to the Lakers. Dallas would land De'Aaron Fox, David Jones-Garcia, AK Okereke and two draft picks from San Antonio.

The Spurs would get back PJ Washington, Daniel Gafford, Caleb Martin and Jarred Vanderbilt. The idea has Johnson sliding into LA's starting small forward spot while the Spurs clear Fox's remaining money and hand the point guard job to Dylan Harper.

Fox SAS → DAL | Washington DAL → SAS | Johnson SAS → LAL
