Assuming Grant is the first (and most likely) to go instead of RW3, which is a mistake IMO, b\c RW3 is a little bit of a ticking time bomb potentially and if you can get value for him now, they are fools not to capitalize on it

AND

assuming that the recent rumor that POR has lowered its' asking price for Grant to (1) 1st and a young prospect, which is at least more in the realm of reasonable. Here are a few Grant trades that could make sense

TRADE#1
CLE
Max Strus (out 6wks w\injury), Nianng, Tyson & 31' 1st
for
Grant + (1) of Walker\Reath\Banton

WHY?
1) Grant could start alongside Mobley, moving Okoro to bench - 2) They keep Levert, who has been valuable (25min/g) off the bench - 3) Strus has yet to play this season - 4) No playing time for Tyson on CLE right now anyway, and he has been bounced back & forth from CLE to G-league
