The New York Knicks and Miami Heat have been linked with Victor Oladipo, but neither team appears to have the appetite to send a significant trade package to the Houston Rockets at the deadline for him.
Both teams could sign Oladipo outright in the offseason and the Knicks may not even have any interest in doing so.
"I don't sense the interest in a future partnership with Oladipo is significant with the Knicks," said Adrian Wojnarowski.
The Rockets may find themselves having to trade Oladipo to a team that views him as a possible rental.
