Thinking of targeting both Mirotic and OPJ from an owner who may be willing to trade one or both. Thoughts on outlooks for both ROS?

Whom should I offer in an attempt to buy low?
Thinking of offering possible Bledsoe, or Gary Harris (worried about lingering injuries) or Dunn or JJJ.

Many thanks!

Problem is Bledsoe and Harris are also buy-low guys right now so they might not be seen as terribly appealing assets (I'd prefer holding on to Bledsoe anyway). Dunn probably has the most trade value right now. I might even try offering Dunn for both Mirotic and Porter as a 1 for 2, just to see how worried the owner is about those two guys. If you can get both guys in a swap like that, then you only need one of them to come back and produce for it to be worth it, and if both do, then you've hit the lottery. In any case, I'd at least start there, and then see how much you'd have to sweeten the deal to land both guys.

Good points David J.
I could alternately include other players on my roster as potential trade options, however I do not want to over pay, including: JJJ, Horford, BroLo.
I sent the 2/2 offer you mentioned but it is highly unlikely he accepts.
I know this owner covets Siakam, anyway to work that knowledge to my advantage through a trade?

I think I might do Siakam for either of those dudes straight up (once Niko shows he's healthy again). OPJ could be an insanely great asset the rest of the way with no John Wall to ace him out.

Ok, since the owner covets Siakam, I would first try offering Siakam for both guys as a 1 for 2. Gotta test those waters and see exactly how badly they want Siakam and how down they are on Mirotic and Otto. If that gets rejected then try adding a second player onto the deal.
