A potential Collin Sexton trade to the New York Knicks requires careful analysis of both teams' assets and needs. The rumored offer of Kevin Knox, Obi Toppin, and a 2021 first-round pick is significantly undervalued for Sexton's talents.

The Knicks' Available Assets:

• RJ Barrett (potential centerpiece)
• Obi Toppin
• Kevin Knox
• Mitchell Robinson
• Draft picks (#19 in current draft)

Untouchable Players:

• Knicks: Julius Randle, Immanuel Quickley
• Cavs: Darius Garland, 2021 #3 pick

Ideal Trade Package Should Include:

• RJ Barrett (40% three-point shooter, strong defender)
• Obi Toppin (young prospect with development potential)
• 2021 #19 pick
• Additional future draft capital (2023 first-round pick or multiple seconds)
• Cedi Osman (for salary matching)

Key Considerations:

• Barrett's improved shooting and defensive abilities make him essential to any deal
• Toppin's age (23) raises questions about development ceiling
• Additional draft compensation needed to balance trade value
• Salary matching requirements must be addressed

Moving forward, the Cavaliers should only consider deals that properly value Sexton as a cornerstone player. The current rumored offer falls well short of acceptable compensation for Cleveland's young scoring guard.
