Top NBA Trade Destinations for Wiggins, Brogdan, and More!

What’s going on everyone welcome to a trade Talk video here on Blazers uprise I’m Eric brand in today’s video we are going to be going through some next team if traded odds for uh certain players in the NBA this will be brought to you by

Bet us which I’ll get to in a moment Unfortunately they do not H currently have odds for Malcolm Brogden Jeremy Grant or any Trailblazers but the Blazers themselves do appear on a few of these in the odds so we’ll talk about that and then we’ll also talk how if

Some of these players are traded to other teams how it affects the Blazers trade market and all that but before I get started this video like I mentioned is brought to you by bet us bet us is your best sports book for uh having a variety of betting options they’re

Coming up next weekend uh so you definitely want to get in on that there’s all kinds of fun prop bets for the Super Bowl and of course you can bet on the game itself and then we have uh these trade odds everything I’m going to

Mention in this video is on BET us that you can bet on yourself whether you agree with my analysis or you see a team that you are interested in and you think have really good odds and you can win some money on that um I I strongly

Suggest uh using bet us for all your gambling needs all right the first player we’re going to talk about is Andrew Wiggins of the Golden State Warriors now uh he’s had a very down year it’s rumored that golden state is looking to possibly move on from him and

Get someone that’s could be a little more reliable or that they can um you know get something more out of uh Wiggins also has a a long-term contract so they’re looking to get out of a little bit of long-term salary as well so let’s take a look at the odds for

Andrew Wiggins as we bring this up here uh the Toronto Raptors um are plus 300 uh to land them so the lower the number if it’s a negative number that means they’re like a heavy favorite if it’s a plus number uh the lower the number the the closer

They are to the favorite so if you look down second from the bottom Atlanta Hawks have plus 200 so that means they are the favorites to land Andrew Wiggins and then you got a couple of teams like the Pacers and the Raptors like I mentioned at plus 300 Cavs at plus 400

Um all those teams uh potentially could be looking for a small forward like Andrew Wiggins maybe a chains of scenery they think will will do well for him uh but yeah the Raptors maybe it’s just a a Canada thing um I’m not sure why they would really trade for him um or what

They would give up the Cavs uh are still looking to solidify that three spot um but they’re going to have trouble trading salary to to match that um we see the Portland Trailblazers there at plus 900 and I believe this only shows up because the Blazers are in a spot where in a

Rebuild they might be taking on bad contracts for assets so if uh there’s another team involved that the the Warriors like a player from but they don’t want Wiggins maybe they break they call the Blazers and see if they can get something done there because maybe

There’s a player in the Blazers they do want uh for this year though the Blazers do have quite a bit of salary they’re they’re not really pushing the luxury tax but they’re close enough to not be able to like take on a ton of salary in a trade

Uh so I think um the Blazers for Wiggins it’s I I’m not sure that that plus 900 is a good value bet um a team like the Memphis Grizzlies maybe um pushing their chips into next year wouldn’t really care how Wiggins did this year um yeah

Other than that uh oh I I forgot to mention earli Mavericks are also plus 200 so right there with the favorites of the Hawks and they’re the Mavericks are a team that has been often mentioned with uh the uh wigin sweep Stakes if you want to call it that um Atlanta has a

Lot of players um bdon B donovic Clint capella DeAndre Hunter they have a lot of contracts Deonte Murray um so I I think they’re listed pretty highly because of that so um I don’t I don’t really have a good feel for where Wiggins would be traded um so I’m not

Really sure where to go with this one uh but there’s lots of teams um some decent odds there if you see a you like all right next up we got Zack LaVine of the Chicago Bulls now it was just announced that he will be out for the rest of the

Year so I think this is going to drastically change the odds but there might be some teams out there that don’t care that he’s hurt because they’re out of the playoff race Allah the Detroit Piston so let’s take at the take a look at the odds here for LaVine and see

What’s uh cooking there so it’s a long list here uh your Portland Tre Blazers are actually plus 7,000 to land him uh I I don’t think that’s a good bet I I would be absolutely shocked if the Blazers traded for LaVine but you always hear those rumors so it’s kind of funny

Uh so if you want a long shot bet there you go the Detroit Pistons are there at plus 300 uh that’s because rumors came out today that the Pistons were very interested in him and for me I’m thinking that the Pistons are a team that could still trade for him anyway

Because they’re not making the playoffs this year and they might actually get LaVine for cheaper than they would have had they had he not been injured out for the year so his value is already seemingly pretty low if the Pistons can get him for even lower uh I think they

Might pull the trigger I I think the Pistons are going to do something a little dumb and crazy at this deadline and uh I think trading for LaVine might be one of those things uh so it’s not great money with the plus 300 so I would

Maybe shy away from it as you can see at the top the Lakers were minus 110 so bet us heavily favored the Lakers as Landing LaVine um before the injury news I would be shocked now if the Lakers traded for him given uh that that news the heat uh like I

Don’t think the heat are going to trade for him uh but I mean they could I guess I’d be I’d be surprised if the heat did it too just cuz like a lot of these teams if they trade for him they’re giving up on this year so I don’t really

Know if Joan bead’s out for the year maybe the 76ers uh acquire him for cheap uh I think that might be a good value bet there um but if embiid’s going to back this year at all I I don’t think they they risk trading for him and taking up

Their uh salary for next year yeah I don’t I don’t really know Memphis is another team on there that um could possibly uh see value in trading for someone for cheap this year and then um having him next year when Jaws jaw should be back and all that but they

Have Bane and jaw already so I don’t know if they would be looking to add another guard to that a lot of the other teams might have trouble matching salary and all that I don’t think the Knicks are going to trade for him yeah I mean

Rockets are a wild card I guess Anything could happen but I’d also be surprised if they traded for him maybe a long shot like the Brooklyn Nets they might at some point realize that they’re not doing anything this year and go for uh next year but um yeah I don’t know maybe

Maybe he doesn’t even get traded now so yeah I that’s where I feel about Zack LaVine let’s move on to Jordan Clarkson um now he’s rumored to be on the move from uh Utah and I mean Utah is a is a you know it’s a rebuilding team but

They’ve now for the second straight year had periods where they’ve looked really good and kind of outperformed expectations I still think they move some of their vets this year and Go full rebuild um not I don’t think they’re going to move Markin in or anything like that but uh players like Clarkson and

And oen and stuff like that I think should probably get moved if you’re if they’re being smart uh so Clarkson is uh a guy who could mess with the Brogden value or the teams that would want Brogden um it’s rumored that Clarkson um and the New York Knicks could uh strike

A deal I just don’t think that’s a great fit for New York uh I feel like Brockton fits a lot better so I’m I’m interested to see the odds here for Clarks to New York and it’s even money so bet us is saying that the New York Knicks are the

Favorite to Lan Clarkson and to me that’s even though that seems bad for Portland I think that’s really good for them because that means that they think the the Knicks are definitely trading for a guard and I think Brogden is just so much smoother of a fit and I think he

Can score you know maybe not quite as good as as Clarkson but everything else he does better he’s a better passer he’s a better Defender he’s he fits better within the team concept and it’s also a little bigger so you don’t have to worry about him playing next to Brunson as

Much as you would with Clarkson uh so i’ I’d be surprised if the Knicks traded for Clarkson over Brunson or over Brogden sorry um but the thing is if Portland doesn’t trade Brogden the Knicks might or yeah the Knicks might have to do something so I don’t know if

Even money is a good bet there I would probably stay away from that I don’t really like a lot of these other odds maybe the Lakers down at plus 700 the heat just traded for roir so that’s that’s probably out Mavericks still have Kyrie and Luca so I I don’t know if

They’re going to be trading for him 76ers could probably use some some guard scoring uh so that’s not a Bad Bet um but yeah other than that I mean maybe the Timberwolves good long shot bet really seeing anything that sticks out for me but still interesting odds there

On Clarkson next up we have Demar de R rozan another Chicago Bull now he’s in the last year of his contract so it opens up a lot of possibilities there um I I think a team like uh the Philadelphia 76ers to me uh they’re sitting there at plus 250 which uh is

Tied with the Knicks uh for the second best odds behind Miami uh Miami just gave up a first for rir like we talked about I could still see them trading for D rozan but I would put my money right now on the 76ers because it gives them

An opportunity to uh still use cap space this summer if they want to move on for d rozan I don’t think the asking price is going to be super high but then again the odds plus 250 aren’t great but uh I if out of all these teams I would say

That Philly is is the best bet there yeah there’s some other fits but yeah I don’t I don’t think Memphis would trade for him Sacramento could be a wild card in some of these now that uh LaVine is off the table cuz that was another team that was heavily rumored to be

Interested in LaVine but now they might have to switch to something else if they’re looking to add another piece for their playoff push yeah Phoenix Suns don’t have many picks or anything to trade so I don’t think they would get D rozen nuggets same thing they don’t have

A lot of of trade pieces to acquire a player like that uh so yeah I’m looking um pretty much at the Philadelphia 76ers are really the only one that makes a ton of sense these been rumored for years to go to the Los Angeles Lakers so that’s always a possibility I guess uh

Especially now that lavine’s out of the equation so yeah Lakers might be a decent value bet as well all right next up we got bojan bonovich of the Detroit Pistons let’s take a look at his odds uh he’s got a a pretty decent contract uh to trade and the Pistons have been

Rumored to have passed on two first round picks for him last year just absolutely crazy for a team that’s that bad to pass up on that kind of value for bogdanovich but um he’s still he’s still a good player and could still help a lot

Of teams so I I think he getss moved and a lot of these teams are interesting for him uh Minnesota timberwol is at plus 200 is the favorite yeah I think it’d be a pretty good fit with Minnesota although you know if you play goar in

Carlon towns a lot it doesn’t provide a lot of minutes at the four Philly is another team that we just talked about uh I I think he’s a good fit for them um not sure if they pull the trigger on him or not Lakers like we just mentioned

Also uh always come into play here I think Golden State Warriors are a sneaky team that I think he would fit really well on the Warriors but I’m not sure if the Pistons would want anything I don’t think they’re going to trade kaminga for bogdanovich so probably not a great

Trade partner but that’s probably why the odds are so high on Andrew Wiggins going to uh going to Detroit because Golden State might do that so you maybe um you can play double odds so like if you really think bonovich is going to be a Golden State Warrior then you trade uh

You also bet on the Wiggins odds for Detroit and you could win a lot of money doing it that way because if Golden State and Detroit make a trade then you get the payout for both bogdanovich and for Wan so I would look for something

Like that um as well uh but I really think um a team that stands out the most to me here and it’s kind of sneaky is Orlando Magic I think they’re looking for shooting they have a glad of guards and could possibly move one of them and

So at plus 800 I kind of like them as an an outside chance I I don’t know I haven’t heard anything tied to them but uh it seems like they’re kind of itching to make a a small move or something and this could be it and then like we talked

About the Kings they’ve been rumored on a lot of these teams so I think the Kings could possibly sneak in there as well plus 600 uh kings are going to be great odds cuz that’s us is is also thinking the same thing that the kings

Are going to uh trade some but plus 600 isn’t bad that means so if you bet $100 you win $600 if it happens finally this isn’t a trade one but I saw this on there and I thought it would be fun to talk about a little bit and that is

Bronny James he’s a freshman at USC they actually have odds on which team will draft Brony and I I wanted to include this because because down near the bottom we have the Portland Trailblazers at plus 4,000 now I don’t think they have dreams of luring Brawn to LeBron his dad to to

Portland or anything but with two early second round picks teams that have bets in that range it just seems like a good opportunity it’s not it’s probably not going to happen but you know like if you have a team with multiple early second round picks they could take a chance on

One of those being bronny and and and coming with that whole LeBron thing so I would look for a team in that range to maybe take advantage of one of their picks and and hope that LeBron comes but like I said I don’t know if that’s

Portland I just know they have a couple High second round picks at the moment uh the team I’m looking at here uh well there’s a couple I think the Thunder uh there that would be really crazy if you had LeBron end up an OKC playing with Brony um and there was a

Rumor today or not a rumor but uh came out today LeBron refused to answer or clarify whether he be uh picking up his player option for the Lakers next year so I think he’s going to keep his options open as well so OKC is a team that man if they added LeBron they’re

Already looking pretty scary this year and LeBron could you know win a a title with another team at the end of his career that would be that would be insane uh but for me even though the Lakers are plus 200 and yeah that makes a ton of sense the Lakers uh they

Probably will find a way to get Brony If he if he comes out of the draft this year but you know it’s not fun to just bet on the favorite at plus 200 so my scenario the New York Knicks there at plus 800 uh there’s LeBron got massive

Ovation at Madison Square Garden when he played there over the weekend and uh yeah so I think I think the the Knicks uh are definitely interesting LeBron’s make comments about how he would always thought about maybe playing for the Knicks so so yeah definitely interesting but my favorite here and this would be

An awesome story if Alex Wolf is watching this he he’d love that I’m mentioning it here and that’s the Cleveland cbers at plus 900 man they have the 23rd pick currently uh I don’t think that’s too big of a reach to use that on on Bron I have a far a hard time

Seeing a team above 22 uh or above 23 going after Bron so that that to me is Great Value right there can you imagine Cleveland drafting LeBron’s son and then him turning for one last run at a title at 40 years old or however he’d be however old he’d be

When he finally comes over uh so I could definitely see Brony going to Cleveland in the draft and that would be really cool story uh so I I put my money on the plus 900 there for bronny all right that’s going to do it for my look at the

  1. I think that the Warriors just need to trade Wiggins for expiring contracts. Because if they can do that a LOT of salary comes off their books this offseason. Klay will be a free agent. CP3 is non-guaranteed. Between the three of those guys its like 100 million dollars off the books. They'll have some flexibility to reshape their roster one last time around Steph. And it shouldn't matter much who the expiring contracts they get back are. If they help and you make a run, great! If not then that's okay too. They need to prioritize next year over this year at this point IMO.

  2. Brogdan is the best player. The rest of the players are on the downside and on their way out of the league with injuries. Portland really don't need to move anybody, developing season, and picking up somebody in the draft are a better move. Portland is in the best shape for the future than majority of league. Portland beating the Bucks was the biggest turnaround for the team. If Portland goes .500 in the second half of the season, then the team is well ahead of schedule of development. Its worth keeping the team into next year.

  3. My trade idea: Brogdon to the Thunder for Betrans(filler), and Aaron Wiggins.

    Why for OKC? The Thunder are good enough to be making a title run, and having a good backup guard like Brogdon could push them over the top.

    Why for Portland? Wiggins is young (25), and has been incredibily efficient from the field this year (70 TS%) He can play SF or SG, he might be on the cusp of "breaking out".
