Question. How many 1sts is IT worth in the trade market?
Better question: who would be willing to give up assets for him, even remotely think about it?
Sac (maaybe)
Knicks?
Dallas?
Denver = Would the Nuggets trade for IT? They were playing Mudiay at SG for awhile alongside Jameer Nelson at PG. Mudiay is back at PG now but his minutes have dropped to 20mpg over last 3 games. Would Denver be interested? Would they trade Jokic for IT?
Dallas = Surely they would but the only asset they have is their 2017 lotto pick.
Orlando = IT for A.Gordon? Or IT for Ibaka? Could you get Hezonja + Ibaka? Or Ibaka/Gordon + 2017 pick (late lotto)? Surely you could get Vucevic or Biyombo but I am not interested in trading IT for them.
Milwaukee = IT for Middleton or Jabari Parker? Probably not interested in someone who needs the ball as much as IT alongside Giannis. Long shot.
Miami = IT for Whiteside? IT for their 2016 pick? Maybe their 2016 pick + Winslow?
Atlanta = IT for Millsap? If worried Millsap will not resign with them. Or Dwight?
New Orleans = IT for their 2017 pick? Their 2017 pick + Hield?
Minnesota = IT for Zach LaVine?
Utah = IT for Favors?
IT could be a big piece in part of a larger trade for Cousins, Paul George or Jimmy Butler.
