2024-25 Trade Rumors Thread

Nico has now traded Grimes for Caleb Martin? Grimes has been great this year. They don’t want to pay anyone lol.
Yeah but at least they gave a second rounder to do it.
 
Will they give us Naji for Clarkson? As long as the player the Mavs are getting back is older it doesn’t matter that they aren’t better.
Uhhh you do know PJ Tucker is 50 right... might even get a first for that.
 
Actually love that trade for the Mavs. Having the security knowing Martin is at a set price for the next 2 years is really good and he's a proven playoff performer. It's a decent 2nd round pick too given the Sixers arent very good this year.
 
I think we'll trade Collins.

Clarkson... that's a tough ask.
Actually think Clarkson is the most likely to get dealt at this point. He's having a great year and he's on a decent contract that is easy to trade for.

Collins just makes too much money to make enough trades work and he has a player option, so there isnt even complete security he will be with whatever team that trades for him more than a half season.

He’s not opting out unless it’s to sign an extension. Look around the league at cap space who’s paying him more than 27M next year?

Probably right, but I guess the potential is still there he leaves. Maybe San Antonio tells him they will give him a nice contract (do they have space to offer a 20 per year type deal, I do not know).

Clarkson... that's a tough ask.
Why? He basically makes the MLE and because he’s a microwave/bench scorer he can fit a ton of places.

Collins’ market is rather constrained due to his salary and some fit issues.

As far as the assets they can return, yeah, Clarkson almost certainly returns less.
 
I wonder if the Hawks/Mavs would swap Okongwu/Gafford.

Gafford is a better fit on Atlanta than Okongwu. Okongwu has an two more years on his deal that might be appealing to the Mavs (would give them security in case Lively's next contract is too expensive for them). Okongwu has a bit more overall versatility that might be appealing next to AD since they arent as concerned with 48 minutes of lob threat rim running 5's since Luka isnt there anymore.

Hawks would include a 2nd rounder?
