Myles Turner might also feel the same way:
I'm sure these are rumors, but what do you think? If they really want to leave what should the Pacers do? What teams might trade for them?

Wow!
I wonder if Sabonis also wants out if these reports are true.

He is an expiring contract so teams would not have to trade the farm for him. Especially with his injury and him not bouncing back so far seemed to drop his value too. I believe he will make a comeback next year but still.

Why would Sabas do that ?
He already was a focal point of Pacers offense.
If Dipo and Turner leave he becomes even more important and can truly be a franchise player until pacers find a new young star.

I always thought they would eventually have to pick between Brogdon or Oladipo and also Sabonis or Turner.

The Bucks and really any good-great team trying to get to champ level should be all over this. Even if he wants to be elsewhere, take the risk and go for it. The price can’t be high given his health & contract situation.
Anyways I don’t see why he wants out, surely it has to be contract related? Indiana seems like a really good situation for him, team on the come up and I actually had them as one of my dark horse finals picks for next season. If Oladipo could get back to even 90% of his pre injury form Oladipo, Brogdon, Sabonis, Turner, Warren, Holiday, Lamb with a good coach is a really nice squad.

Raps dont really have the trade assets while remaining competitive. Remove OG/Siakam and how are they gonna get him? Powell and 2 1st rounders doesnt sound that enticing.

Ya, Bucks should be throwing everything at the wall for him.

He's the type of piece that would make contenders favorites

wishful thinking on my part. HE would solve lots of Celtics issues.

Well Indiana will likely want the best SG or SF player back they can find.
Would the Bucks move Middleton for Dipo and Turner?

Dipo on the Bucks would be a crazy duo imo

Treadmill playoff team. That’s why. Losing gets old if you getting bounced early in the playoffs. Turner and Sabonis are not a good fit. Oladipo probably doesn’t want to waste his next contract on a treadmill team either.
I just don’t see any team paying Oladipo more than a 2 year contract and they probably want a TEAM OPTION for the 2nd year if he wants 20 million plus a season. No way I would commit to a 3 or 4 year deal with Oladipo. He’s coming off a major injury and still doesn’t look like his old explosive self. He’s always been streaky in terms of shooting. But that motor has always had coming into the league. I just don’t see that motor anymore.

I would love to see Domas in green but I am not sure that it will make most sense for him.
His numbers will drop significantly if he joins Celtics.
He would of course have a chance to win a ring but he’s still young and loves Indy so I don’t expect that to happen....
Turner on the other hand joining Celts is a possibility...
