NBA Mock Trades

🚨MOCK TRADE🚨 #Heat are in complete WIN NOW mode after acquiring superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo earlier this month, and have even more picks to make a move for a star-caliber PG This trade allows Memphis to rebuild and gain pick value to offload Morant. Thoughts? 🤔

🚨MOCK TRADE PT. 2🚨 We got ANOTHER Jaylen Brown mock trade to Charlotte, this time with the #Celtics returning all-star center Jalen Duren 👀 Charlotte is forced to give up multiple picks and young star Brandon Miller while Detroit gets rid of Duren. Thoughts? 🤔

@TylerHenry_ Celtics will NEED a lot to trade him, what would your point mock be?

@DeadlineMocks This is so fucking bad

🚨MOCK TRADE🚨 #Hornets are ACTIVELY trying to acquire Jaylen Brown per multiple reports. They flip formerly acquired Naz Reid, who would be a great center option for Boston while getting their new star alongside Miller and Kneuppel. Who says no? 🤔

The Pelicans should be viewed as one of the more realistic suitors for Jaylen Brown. If Boston continues to engage teams, New Orleans could offer multiple starting-level impact players, including Trey Murphy III, and first-round draft compensation for the Celtics star.

🚨MOCK TRADE🚨 #Warriors have expressed major interest in Sacramento’s DeMar Derozan and Domantas Sabonis while looking to get rid of Jimmy Butler’s contract 👀 This mock trade includes all and helps rebuild Sacramento while giving Curry assets for a final push.

NEW ORLEANS #PELICANS ROSTER RETOOL After releasing two mock trades, here is an updated New Orleans roster retool 👀

🚨MOCK TRADE🚨 #Pelicans clear another guard, this time Herb Jones in our mock trade sending the forward to Los Angeles in exchange for a first round pick and more! Who says no? 🤔

🚨MOCK TRADE🚨 #Celtics are looking for a potential suitor for Jaylen Brown while looking to get a center as well. #Pelicans offload Murphy and get all-NBA guard Jaylen Brown. Who says no? 🤔

BREAKING: The Charlotte Hornets are trading star guard LaMelo Ball and Josh Green to the Minnesota Timberwolves for Naz Reid, a 2033 unprotected first-round pick, three first-round pick swaps (2028, 2029, 2030) and three second-round picks (2029, 2032, 2033), sources tell ESPN.

The Raptors potential trade packages for a LaMelo Ball deal: • Barrett + Gradey + Picks (Raptors take on $5M in salary) • Quickley + Gradey + Picks (Almost perfect salary match) • Ingram + Picks (Once the league calender flips) The Raptors still have all their 1st-round picks, with an additional 6 2nd-round picks at their disposal, per @JustEsBaraheni.

@Fullcourtpass @TheSteinLine The main Melo mock we came up with

The Timberwolves are making Jaden McDaniels off limits in trade discussions for LaMelo Ball while also preferring to keep Donte DiVincenzo and Naz Reid, per @TheSteinLine Minnesota interest in LaMelo is “undeniably serious” (open.substack.com/pub/marcstein/…)

in order, here are the best trades: 1. #raptors-#hornets 2. #bucks-#raptors-#hornets 3. #timberwolves-#hornets 4. #bucks-#hornets

MOCK TRADES: LaMelo Ball looks to be on the move very soon with Milwaukee, Toronto, and Minnesota being potential suitors for the all-star guard 👀 We got FOUR mock trades, including a 3-team deal where Ball gets dealt. Which one works best, and which is awful? 🤔

@DortNowitzki @esidery And they shed $4M, you can’t expect Chicago to want to accept a deal without giving off a similar player

@DeadlineMocks @esidery The whole point of trading joe would be to shed salary bruh

The Thunder are actively shopping Isaiah Joe in trade talks after drafting Bennett Stirtz. Stirtz will step into Joe’s role as a sharpshooter while saving OKC millions in tax bills.

MOCK TRADE: @esidery reports the #Thunder are actively trying to shop Isaiah Joe after drafting Bennett Stirtz. Chicago would be a great destination for the up and coming wing, while OKC frees up some cap space.

@esidery Hmmmm
