2025 Off-Season Trade Ideas Thread

[Tremendous Upside]

I love how we should just "get rid of" Lauri, Clarkson, Sexton and Collins, as if that's somehow easy.

With Lauri's ridiculous deal, role player image and the terrible year he had, there's very few possible landing spots. Maybe none.

The rest of the guys have zero market.

The Ainge tag team needs to be prepared to take some massive L's if they intend to part ways with these four. Just a fact.

Even if Jazz can only get second round picks that may be OK
Look at what Austin has done already for second round picks and free agents
He may have found some roster talent in free agents

WTF LoPo is back! Sup bro!

Yeah!! Hope you stick around a while @LoPo

In light of drafting Ace and him (desperately) needing people around him that might be able to provide real positive influence/mentorship, we should go get Dame, even if the compensation to take on his contract is slight or maybe even non-existent.

I’ve scoured the contracts and situations, but I just don’t see an obvious trading partner.

Phoenix would probably love to part with Beal, but they wouldn’t need more backcourt players like Sexton and Clarkson with their recent trades.

I don’t think Milwaukee can dump Lillard for his contract because they have to keep Giannis happy.

The Lakers will be active with their expirings (Kleber, and maybe Vincent) and possibly Knecht and/or Milton.

Paul George will be a situation to watch but I think Philly is stubborn enough to keep him and his terrible contract.
