? The Knicks want to use Evan Fournier in a bigger trade.
With his contract (18 million a year), Fournier would be the perfect piece to complete a package in exchange for an All-Star this summer, or in exchange for a big expiring contract.

? Cam Reddish will definitely be transferred in 10 days.
The Knicks want to get a Rui Hachimura-style package, they will try to get 2 second rounds of the Draft until the buzzer and consider other scenarios without it.

? The Suns and Jazz are struggling to get John Collins.
Utah has been working on it for a few months, Phoenix has been working on some 2-3 team situations with Jae Crowder.

? Rob Pelinka is not done yet, the Lakers still have a trade that must be completed within 10 days.
The door is not closed on a transfer of Russell Westbrook, whose rating has changed since last September.

— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? The Lakers and Mavs are the teams in pole position in the Zach LaVine file.
It’s difficult – but not impossible – to consider a trade at the deadline. However, the Mavs and Lakers are already preparing the ground to resume talks this summer to reacquire LaVine. pic.twitter.com/DCMyilHqUR
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Rui Hachimura should have gone to Phoenix.
The Suns, Bucks and Wizards are close to a trade that would send Rui to the Suns, Jae Crowder to the Bucks, and Kris Dunn + picks to Washington.

— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Jae Crowder will have a 100% chance of being moved at the deadline.
Milwaukee in pole position with George Hill, Serge Ibaka and Jordan Nwora in the deal. Phoenix not interested in Grayson Allen, will be looking for a 3rd team to make a deal.

? Several teams will contact the Heat to weigh in on Kyle Lowry, with no comment at this time.
Miami wants to give this group a chance in the second half of the season, before taking a serious look at the Lowry case this summer.
Unlikely to see a trade from Kyle. pic.twitter.com/gukSwH77ja
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Available for transfer Dario Saric.
There is a lot of intrigue around the League about the new owner of the Suns, which could prompt some movement once he arrives before the deadline.
If impossible / too short: see you this summer for changes. pic.twitter.com/otWfZQ2F1K
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Matisse Thybulle is available.
Discussions have been heating up for 1 month, the Sixers have not given any indication of wanting to extend it and Thybulle’s rating remains very high in the League.
Watch for: Competitive team looking for defense and a little focus. pic.twitter.com/o1weiimIZe
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Josh Hart is the hottest name in transfer talk right now.
Multiple executives say Portland won’t be able to extend Hart and Jerami Grant this summer.

— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? There are no rumors about Jusuf Nurkic at the moment.
Rumors, but nothing concrete at an exact time. What can and should change in the next 10 days, Joe Cronin can fix (1) the Hart case first and then (2) the Nurkic case.
To follow carefully. pic.twitter.com/bqdR7Ep3a6
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Blazers, Knicks and Suns in pole position at OG Anunoby.

— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Gary Trent Jr. has the best chance to be transferred to the Raptors side at the deadline.
There are some rumors of a possible extension, but the principle does not seem to have changed so far: it is GTJ, ahead of VanVleet, who can be transferred. pic.twitter.com/MmfQeraF6j
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Stephen Curry internalized his desire to win the title this season.
The recent public report on the Bob Meyers-Warriors relationship will destabilize the situation 10 days from the deadline.

— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? The Wizards are very clear to the rest of the NBA teams: no Kyle Kuzma trades are coming.
The recent transfer of Rui Hachimura confirmed this position in discussions with other franchises.

— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? More and more teams are thinking that Bojan Bogdanovic will not be moved at the deadline.
Detroit is in no rush, discussions can continue before the 2023 Draft, with the precise order of the Draft following the lottery, to better utilize Bojan in the trade. pic.twitter.com/Yi7w1Q8DIh
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Dallas remains committed to finding a co-star for Luka Doncic.
Hard to find and even harder to ride an exciting Mavs coast package. Dorian Finney-Smith was added to the potential transferable players, along with Hardaway Jr or Powell.
Josh Green: unavailable. pic.twitter.com/CN63RWhit8
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Watch Monte McNair, a trade could come Sacramento’s way.
Nothing major, the holders will not move but the bench should be strengthened, especially defensively.

? Brad Stevens continues to explore his options to bolster Boston’s racket.
There have been plenty of links to Jakob Poeltl, but Spurs remain determined to get expensive in return. In addition to having to extend Poeltl this summer, it’s not certain the Celtics will make a move on him. pic.twitter.com/wOhuYAsVJz
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Bones Hyland available, Nuggets discussing a potential move regarding him.
To be extended as soon as possible, like Bruce Brown, the scorer can be moved at the deadline to avoid putting Denver in a complicated financial situation. pic.twitter.com/6OoCirtjbQ
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? D’Angelo Russell should not be moved at the deadline.
Naz Reid and Jaylen Nowell have already been mentioned, but Minnesota really wants to keep Naz and let Nowell go this summer instead.
Regarding D-Lo: will be discussed again this summer, but complicated file to predict. pic.twitter.com/sY9J0GZXdG
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Alex Caruso is in 10 teams, but the Bulls don’t seem to want to move him.

? The Clippers want to strengthen their leadership position as a priority.
Terance Mann is unavailable at the moment, management highly values him and has used him in this position as a backup.
Backup still pivots on priorities, but leads to watch until Feb. 9. pic.twitter.com/4DIf3uBTwq
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
? Houston doesn’t want to move KJ Martin for the 2nd round of the Draft only.
The Rockets believe they will get more in return.
Regarding Eric Gordon, the move is almost inevitable, the counterpart has less importance in the 10 days of the trade deadline. pic.twitter.com/FOrr3XAXC4
