With the NBA tip-off night happening just around the corner, a possible big trade could happen even before the season begins, as three elite guards are involved in the trade rumors.
Washington Wizards' slashing point guard, John Wall, Boston Celtics' scoring leader, Isaiah Thomas and Minnesota Timberwolves' sneaky-passer, Ricky Rubio are big names that are involved in the rumors according to a report posted in Inquisitr.com
In the same article, the trade deal proposal will bring Wall to Beantown with the Wizards receiving Rubio alongside a trio of first-round draft picks (2018, additional choices on 2019). The Wolves' will then have Thomas and power forward, Jonas Jerebko from the Celtics.'
All three teams that are involved are looking for a good run for the playoffs this year. With the Wizards' locking in their other All-star guard, Bradley Beal for a multi-year deal, they have a big chance to make it as one of the top teams in the East. On the other hand, the Celtics' pulled off one of the biggest player moves in the off-season as they got All-star forward, Al Horford from the Atlanta Hawks. In the West coast, the Wolves' have higher expectations from their young core with The Big Kat, Karl Anthony-Towns, high-flyer, Zach Lavine, former number one top rookie pick, Andrew Wiggins, and their newly acquired defensive-mindset coach leading the team.
The potential trade rumor including the high-quality point guards will be very interesting. However, money and salary cap space could be a barrier for this trade to happen.
These trade discussions going around the Internet is not considered valid, according to league guidelines. However, if these rumors will come true, trade proposals will possibly have its version of tweaks here and there.
There have been no concrete talks discussions happening around the league yet but in case this comes true, all teams are hopeful that they will benefit from it as they are all looking to take their teams to another level this season.
