As the new NBA season begins, the NBA trade rumors remain to be one of the favorite topics this season and this will be the case until February when the trade will be over. According to recent NBA trade buzz, Boston Celtics, LA Clippers and Sixers are in a three-way trade talk involving Nerlens Noel, DeAndre Jordan and Marcus Smart.
Nerlens Noel is a regular in the NBA trade rumor mills and many believe that the Sixers' center will eventually be wearing a new jersey. Well, that could be possible.
According to NBA Trade Rumors, a potential trade is in talks among LA Clippers, Philadelphia 76ers and Boston Celtics. The trade will involve Nerlens Noel, DeAndre Jordan, Marcus Smart and more players.
Per Inquistr, if the trade will be pushed, DeAndre Jordan will be heading to Boston Celtics. Meanwhile, Marcus Smart and the second-round draft pick from Clippers will join Julius Randle and D'Angelo Russell in Philadelphia 76ers. On the other hand, LA Clippers will receive a package including Nerlens Noel, Jae Crowder, Amir Johnson and a future first-round draft choice from Boston.
Although most NBA trade rumors sound unbelievable, the publication thinks that this trade is possible as it is a legal trade. The players involved here from Celtics and Clippers have almost the same salary, which is between $21 million to $22 million.
On the other hand, Sixers is swapping one player for another asset with the same trade value market. The structure in this potential NBA trade is interesting and plausible.
Boston Celtics needs a big man and DeAndre Jordan will be great in filling that void. After all, he is one of the best centers in the NBA league today.
Meanwhile, Marcus Smart will be a great guard in Sixers. On the other hand, Nerlens Noel and Jae Crowder have the potential to excel in their craft and would make a great addition to LA Clippers.
