> Myles Turner, to this point, has rebuffed Indiana’s contract extension offers, league sources say. Ditto for Jordan Clarkson in Utah, where sources say the Jazz came into the season hopeful of securing a new long-term deal with Clarkson before he becomes a free agent this summer. There are teams out there naturally hoping that Turner or Clarkson (or both) will be in play for trades before the deadline. I don’t see the Jazz trading Clarkson; Turner’s situation continues to be harder to read.
Bonus Oubre Content:
> Cleveland, Phoenix and Toronto had been circulating as teams that had trade interest in the Hornets’ Kelly Oubre Jr. until Oubre was forced to undergo left hand surgery this week expected to sideline him for four-to-six weeks.

Fire up those trade machines boys!
He wants out of there.
Pacers have been good and I don’t think he’s gonna find a better pg halibuton
Good for Turner. Wouldn’t be surprised if he wants out there for anything short of a big overpay. Career year and has always been on the trade block. Now he gets to decide his destiny.
If turner refuses to extend then pacers literally have to trade him
20 points, 4 rebounds, and close to 5 assists. He’s improved at getting assists, and is a good shot creator. He will easily get a first, maybe 2 protected firsts
Collin should start, and Ochai recent game shows he’s a good defender, and good at making three’s, so he deserves more minutes
What head from a Gary lot lizard does
I highly doubt the pacers trade him becuz of their playoff contention
this is after Jazz fans were calling Mitchell is a traitor while JC is loyal to Utah and is one of the good ones cause he doesn’t mind the racism
Poor Stein. Feels like he only reports rumors these days and just minor news/details. He used to be such a big news breaker.
What teams are in on Myles Turner besides the most obvious one?
They supposedly offered him a bonus of $500 for every half court shot he hit during the season.
This guy had an interview with Woj listing why the Lakers should trade for him and they’ve tried to trade him for years. Time to pack it up.
We could REALLY use either rn. Like, really bad
I feel like Myles is just trying to see what he can get in FA. I think he will be back on the Pacers next year.
Guess he didn’t learn from his own ex teammate oladipo
Wouldn’t mind getting okoro for Oubre, unless the suns or raptors would give us a first but that seems unlikely
After being in the trade rumours for literally every season he does not want to extend with the team. Call me shocked
I don’t remember him buffing them in the first place
Turner would look real good in a Raptors jersey 👀👀👀
Turner for Dwight Powell and 2027 first round pick
Pacers might do it without the pick. Rick Carlisle LOVES Dwight Powell.
I think that Clarkson would really fit the Bucks team. He brings the 3s, high rate shooting and that is honestly something Bucks really need with Middleton with no clear timetable to return.
I’d miss JC but I don’t blame him for wanting to see what kinda offers are out there. He might be trying to win a chip too and we won’t be contenders for quite a while
I would trade Turner because he is a piece that many teams needs to win and Pacers probably won’t win any time soon.
I wouldn’t mind trading Turner depending on what we could get back, he is having a career offensive season (16.7/7.9/2.2 on 54/38/78) but I would not be surprised if he is using this as leverage to get a better deal in the off-season from us.
Unless it’s an insulting offer, Myles would be foolish to leave Hali’s side. A true PG like that makes his life so much easier.
i don’t want either but if Monte can get in on that action and steal a wing and a backup center
Damn it!
I bought Clarkson’s jersey last year.
Dude crushes it.
What is Turner’s max extension? Feel like that’s a bad move on his part..
pls Jon we need Clarkson
Hopefully they can get some value for him, and start slipping in the standing. I know they are good and should at least make the play in but they would be better off being a lottery team at least for one more year.
There has to be some teams out there not named the Lakers that have interest in him, hes having a great year. I guess maybe teams are worried about him not sticking around or something.
LAKER
I guess they’re all betting that this cap spike will be very kind to them in free agency.
If the Lakers are just sitting on picks while these dudes are on expiring contracts for non-contending teams, LeBron should fucking rock bottom Pelinka.
Fuck that, he should rock bottom him anyway bc it’s f that dude
myles pls
Lakers fans in this thread can fuck off. We don’t want Westbrook and 2nd round picks.
Clarkson is not a good player, he’s the D’Lo of shooting guards
I don’t blame ’em. There are much better places for a wealthy young man to live than Indiana or Utah.
