TOP 5 expected NBA trades in the winter of 2023

by time news

The 2022-2023 NBA season has come to its equator, which means that in January we will see a lot of interesting trades involving basketball players from the best Basketball League in the world. Many clubs will be trying to improve their rosters, and other teams that have no chance of making it to the Playoffs or even the Play-ins are likely to get rid of their players’ expensive contracts to clean up the payroll. All this will definitely affect the situation in the standings and in the quotes of the bookmakers – Mostbet.UZ kirish.

Consider the TOP 5 NBA basketball players who will be the most desirable for the leading clubs in the National Basketball Association.

Bojan Bogdanovic (Detroit Pistons)

In the summer, Bogdanovich moved to Detroit from Utah in the hope that he would add variety and offensive power to the team. As we can see, the expectations were fully justified. Bojan plays great, but the team itself looks very bad and is in last place in the standings. It is unlikely that such prospects are rosy for an age veteran. Given that the club’s main star, Cade Cunningham, was out with an injury until the end of the season, and the team’s lack of prospects for the season, it certainly makes no sense to keep Bogdanovich in the Pistons.
Therefore, for sure, Detroit will listen to proposals for Bogdanovich in the winter and demand a set of draft picks for the veteran. At the moment, several NBA clubs are interested in the Boyan trade. The most likely trade is considered to be a basketball player in the Los Angeles Lakers.

Cam Reddish (New York Knicks)

Despite the fact that the talented basketball player was selected with a high 10 picks in the 2019 NBA draft, in 4 seasons in the best basketball league, he could not become a confident player in the starting lineup. Reddish was traded to the Knicks for a first-round pick but is currently out of the club’s rotation and the player’s agent is actively working to find him a new job.

Among the real contenders for the Cam Reddish trade are the following clubs: Los Angeles Lakers, Detroit Pistons, Dallas Mavericks. Such a high demand for the services of a talented player can only indicate that the NBA still believes in him. Luckily for teams that are interested in the basketball player, the market price for him is low at the moment and the trade can take place in exchange for several picks in the second round of the draft.

John Collins (Altanta Hawks)

At the moment, of all the teams that could potentially trade this talented basketball player, the Washington Wizards can be noted. However, basketball pundits also associate Collins’ name with Indiana, Dallas, Utah, and Brooklyn. The player has a valid contract with Atlanta for 4 years, according to which he should receive 76 million dollars.

They also link John to Finnis, who have Dario Saric and Jay Crowder on short-term contracts that will save Atlanta money in the long run.

Jay Crowder (Phinnix Suns)

Surprisingly, the Finnix forward has not spent a single minute on the court with the Suns this season. The Finnix are actively looking for a new job for the player, who is also looking to find a new team as soon as possible. The 32-year-old basketball player has not played in the NBA for 7 months. However, despite this, Crowder remains a fairly valuable asset and many NBA clubs have become interested in his trade, including: Atlanta, Golden State, Washington, Milwaukee.

It is reported that Atlanta is ready to include John Collins in the trade, but the latter’s contract may become an obstacle to the deal.

Jakub Peltl (San Antonio Spurs)

San Antonio have absolutely no goals for the current season with one caveat, they want Victor Webmaniama in the 2023 draft. Despite the fact that the Spurs have not openly stated their intention to trade their center, many experts believe that the best option for San Antonio would be the trade of Pöltl. At the moment, three NBA teams are associated with Yakub, including the Golden State Warriors, Toronto Raptors and Boston Celtics.

Due to the high demand for the player in the market, there is a high probability that the Spurs will still receive a profitable offer that will suit them 100%. Currently, the team is asking for two weakly defended first-round draft picks for their center. Despite the lack of tasks in the team, Jakub Pöltl is doing quite well this season and is one of the leaders in the current Spurs squad.
