NBA Rumors: Top 7 'Most Likely To Be Traded' By Thursday Deadline
Now that the Kyrie Irving bombshell has dropped, there are still several other prominent names on the trade market that will move back to center stage. According to NBA Insider Marc Stein, the following names are now atop the 'Most Likely To Be Traded' list.
The Cavaliers are among the teams expressing strong trade interest in Portland's Josh Hart, league sources say. Hart has joined the likes of Bones Hyland, Cam Reddish, various veterans in Utah and John Wall on the Most Likely To Be Traded list at this deadline, per @TheSteinLine. pic.twitter.com/6G1kblFd7Z

- Bones Hyland, Denver Nuggets
- Cam Reddish, New York Knicks
- John Wall, Los Angeles Clippers
- Josh Hart, Portland Trail Blazers
- Malik Beasley/Jarred Vanderbilt/Mike Conley, Utah Jazz
As for Hyland, it certainly appears that his days in Denver are numbered. He's received a couple of DNP-CDs in a row now, and he seems to have "checked out" on the team since being put on the block.
But Hyland's woes are nothing compared to Reddish, who's received more than two straight months of DNP-CDs from Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau. He can be had for a second-rounder, despite the Knicks trading Kevin Knox and a first-rounder for him a year ago.
We learned this weekend that Wall's days in Clipper-land are numbered, and that Josh Hart is heavily in demand too out of Portland.
The Jazz veterans have been mentioned in a multitude of possible deals, including a 4-player scenario with the Knicks, and they are all expected to move as well.
