Recently, the former best sixth man in the league Jamal Crawford said when participating in "The Carter Show": " The Cavaliers are now Garland's team, no matter what happens to the team Build a team that is more suitable for him. This team is already Garland's team. If Sexton can adapt, then the two parties can continue to cooperate, but if he cannot adapt, the Cavaliers will choose to send him. Let's go." Sexton's contract expires this season, and the Cavaliers have provided him with a qualifying offer, making him a restricted free agent. But unfortunately, when most free agents in the league have their names, Sexton's contract issue is still unresolved. According to Cavaliers reporter Chris Fedor, Sexton wanted a contract with an annual salary of US$20 million in the free market, but the Cavaliers were only willing to provide him with a maximum offer of US$51 million over three years.

In stark contrast, the Cavaliers have just provided Garland with a five-year, $193 million maximum salary extension contract. If he can trigger the designated rookie clause or Rose clause , the maximum amount can reach 231 million. Dollar. Not only that, the Cavaliers also signed back veteran point guard Rubio with a three-year, $18.4 million contract. There are various signs that Sexton's hope of staying with the Cavaliers is becoming increasingly slim. Sexton only played 11 regular season games for the Cavaliers due to injury last season, averaging 16 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game. As the No. 8 pick in the 2018 draft, Sexton, who has just turned 23, still has tremendous potential. The potential remains to be tapped.

Recently, Rockets reporter McMahon revealed when participating in Zach Lowe’s podcast: “Porter Jr.’s agent wanted to secure an early contract extension of tens of millions of dollars for his client this summer, but both parties Only the most preliminary talks were held, and there is still no consensus within Rockets on whether to renew Porter's contract. What I know is that Rockets is not willing to renew his contract. "This is actually not difficult to understand. , Porter Jr. has not made significant progress in the two seasons since he joined the Rockets. His assist-to-turnover ratio has always been high. From time to time, there have been reports of bad behavior causing trouble in the Rockets locker room. If the Rockets management hadn't tried their best to cover it up, I'm afraid. He has long been notorious in the league. But this is not the main reason. Porter did not establish any chemical reaction when partnering with Jaylen Green in the backcourt, and Porter's excessive ball-sticking style will limit Jaylen Green's performance.

McMahon finally concluded that the tactics of Porter Jr. and Jaylen Green are difficult to be compatible. He suggested that the Rockets use Eric Gordon as a bargaining chip to complete a 1-for-1 sign-and-trade deal with the Cavaliers to obtain "spiritual guy" Colin Sexton. Sexton is a scoring point guard with strong physical fitness. He is very aggressive in breaking through with the ball. He is proactive on the defensive end. He is good at protecting rebounds and can drive his teammates around him. He plays harder than Porter Jr., has a more comprehensive performance on both offense and defense, and has a brighter future development prospect. In addition, after the Rockets bought out Wall , the team freed up 30 million US dollars in salary space. General Manager Stone can directly make an offer for Sexton. Sexton is worth It's a trough period, and the Rockets don't have to pay a big price to get him at this time. Stone can use this to suppress Porter Jr.'s worth, and at the same time continue to operate Gordon transactions in exchange for more valuable chips.
