The pre-season games for the 2016-2017 NBA Season have started but the NBA trade rumors are still rampant. The latest rumor involves three players namely Kevin Love, Goran Dragic, and Kris Dunn being linked to Miami Heat, Cleveland Cavaliers and Philadelphia 76ers.
The three names and teams aforementioned have been on the trading block and rumor mill since the start of the offseason before the 2016-2017 NBA Season started. Christian Post reported that the latest NBA trade rumors is about Dragic moving to Cleveland Cavaliers, Love to Miami Heat, and Dunn to Philadelphia 76ers.
According to the report, Dragic, together with Justise Winslow will be heading over to Cleveland Cavaliers in exchange for Love. Chatt Sports Net shared that Miami Heat is eyeing Love due to Chris Bosh still not being allowed to play in court due to his health concerns. Love has been on the rumor mill since many are saying that he does not play well alongside LeBron James and Kyrie Irving.
Aside from Bosh, Miami Heat really wants to get Love because of losing Dwayne Wade. Wade left Miami Heat during this year's offseason because of free agency. Although they have Dragic on their team, Miami Heat reportedly believes that his skills are limited.
For Cleveland Cavaliers acquiring Winslow, he will reportedly be a good backup small forward for James. However, acquiring Dragic will not make any sense as per other basketball analysts.
For Dunn moving to Philadelphia 76ers, the Minnesota Timberwolves will reportedly be traded in exchange for Dario Saric and Nerlens Noel. Noel is also one of the frequent players surrounded by trade rumors and removing him as well as Saric from Philadelphia 76ers will somehow fix the front court log jam of the team. Noel possibly joining Minnesota Timberwolves can be beneficial to the team because the two can play alongside each other and achieve great scores.
Do you think any of these trade rumors will take place anytime soon? Let us know what you think!
