Grading the trade proposal between the San Antonio Spurs and Cleveland Cavaliers.
With point guards in mind, Bleacher Report NBA writer Greg Swartz recently proposed a mock deal to bring Darius Garland from Cleveland to San Antonio.

In exchange for the star guard, the Spurs would package three players—Keldon Johnson, Tre Jones, and Malaki Branham and a pick to take on Garland and his $39.4 million average salary. Would it be a worthwhile trade for Victor Wembanyama's development? Let's break it down and give a grade to each team involved.
