Trail Blazers and 76ers Eye Key Trades

The Philadelphia 76ers, despite a slow season start without key players, are considering trading for Sacramento Kings' Keegan Murray to strengthen their roster, particularly on wing defense. Meanwhile, the Portland Trail Blazers are expected to be active in the trade market as they focus on rebuilding, with players like Jerami Grant and Anfernee Simons being potential trade candidates. Grant could be a particularly valuable asset for teams like the Minnesota Timberwolves looking for defensive upgrades. The Blazers are also considering trading Duop Reath to teams like the New Orleans Pelicans due to their depth in the frontcourt. The Boston Celtics, maintaining their strong performance, might trade young guard Jaden Springer due to limited playing opportunities, despite his potential. As the trade deadline approaches, these teams are strategizing to either reinforce for a playoff push or rebuild for future success.
