Avdija to Memphis
Based on rumours around.
Avdija
for
Clarke
GG Jackson
2 future firsts (top-10 protected)
Memphis get their big wing defender.
Portland get 3 1st rounders for a future flexibility given they are not ready now.

Re: Avdija to Memphis
I don't see Portland trading Avdija for protected picks. They'd have to really, really believe in GG Jackson.

Would need more . I think Portland is close to making the playoffs.

Re: Avdija to Memphis
Maybe...
Deni
for
filler
Jackson
Wells
2028 1st (unprotected)
Or more likely some 3-team deal of Bane + asset for Deni + something.

OP is not close for Deni. What rumors are you referring to?

They probably think since Sharpe + #11 = 2 Top 10 protected 1sts, this is close.

Yeh, even Deni is worth more than this.

Yes but if you are the fans and management , you will believe my statement to be true hence unlikely to actually trade an actual contributor.
There’s probably around 4-5 decent regular season contributor for sure. Just need find 3-4 more.

Re: Avdija to Memphis
It’s simply not anywhere near a serious offer with top 10 protecting those picks. They’d have to assign blue chip value on GG, and he just doesn’t have that. Not right now.

Re: Avdija to Memphis
Why would they trade him for protected picks one year after trading a lottery pick for him? That makes absolutely no sense.

Those rumors don't have any substance of truth.
Makes no sense for Portland...

There's a garbage report circulating.

POR is not taking a lesser package than we gave up for him when he exceeded expectations.

What would be a fair offer that POR at least considers?

I would add Deni to 11 (and maybe more) for #2.
OP is a pointless step backwards.

Start by looking at what we traded for him and assume we want more. The most likely path would be something that gives a swing at a legit star, so highly coveted 1sts, not highly protected 1sts.
