SAN FRANCISCO - Stephen Curry scored a season-high 47 points, knocking down seven 3-pointers, and the Golden State Warriors beat the Sacramento Kings 116-113 on Monday night to snap a five-game losing streak. It will be interesting to see what moves they make, and if those are enough to build a contender in a very deep West and keep Lillard happy. There are a lot of trade rumors floating around a very active Trail Blazers team this offseason. Collins would provide rim protection and athleticism up front for the Trail Blazers. “He’s definitely been mentioned as a Portland trade candidate,” Fischer said on the podcast. Collins was mentioned in several trade rumors at the deadline last February, but the Hawks asking price was too steep for teams. Like Anunoby in Toronto, John Collins was frustrated with his role in Atlanta. Lillard, Simons and Ayton make an athletic perimeter in Portland, but is that a big enough role to make Anunoby happy? “I’m pretty aware from my conversations that Portland definitely is targeting OG (Anunoby), definitely someone that Lillard wants to pair with.” Rumblings about Anunoby wanting a larger role in Toronto - and feeling squeezed by Rookie of the Year Scottie Barnes - have been floating around the league for a while. Toronto gets mentioned a lot around the league as a potential Ayton landing spot. More concerning, he’s not a defensive stopper in the paint, which Portland may need with Lillard at the point.Īyton to Portland - or, really anywhere except Detroit - would have to be a sign-and-trade, which would help the Suns recoup some value for losing their starting center. Is Ayton a fit with Lillard and the Blazers? He put up good numbers - 17.2 points and 10.2 rebounds a game this season - but he was not consistent, especially in the playoffs. The Suns are hesitant to pay that much, but other teams are expected to make Ayton a max offer - Portland could be one because “it seems like he’s another guy that Dame has interest in playing with,” Fischer said. On the Dunc’d on Podcast with Nate Duncan, Bleacher Reports’ Jake Fischer threw out three players that Lillard wants to play with and the Trail Blazers are looking at: Deandre Ayton, OG Anunoby, and John Collins ( hat tip HoopsHype).Īyton wants max money. Big changes are coming to the Pacific Northwest. They are expected to pay up and re-sign Anfernee Simons this offseason, but the door is wide open after that. Tucker.The Portland Trail Blazers remain committed to retooling on the fly around Damian Lillard. The Sixers had seven players listed in the starting caliber category in Joel Embiid, James Harden, Tyrese Maxey, Tobias Harris, De’Anthony Melton, Matisse Thybulle, and P.J. The article broke the Sixers roster down into three categories- starting-caliber players, rotation-caliber players, and deep bench players. In the most recent Bleacher Report rankings article, which was written by Greg Swartz, the Sixers were listed as the fourth-deepest roster in the NBA heading into the 2022-23 season. This added depth has drawn attention from the rest of the NBA as well. Montrezl Harrell, De’Anthony Melton, PJ Tucker, and Danuel House are all expected to play notable roles in the team’s production this season. To address this, Morey added some key pieces to the bench unit in free agency and through a trade. This was a major point of emphasis for the Sixers as they had the third-fewest bench points per game last season as the second unit added just 27.2 points per game. The Philadelphia 76ers made some notable addition to their bench unit this offseason. Joel Embiid #21 of the Philadelphia 76ers celebrates from the bench during the second half of an NBA basketball game against the Houston Rockets, at the ESPN Wide World Of Sports Complex.
