NBA

The Trail Blazers are looking ahead at Thursday’s trade deadline, no doubt fielding offers for a few players. Malcolm Brogdon is the most likely candidate. Several teams are reportedly interested in the services of the reigning sixth man of the year including Orlando, Houston, and the Lakers…who are all looking to make a second half push into the playoffs. Other names popping up are Jerami Grant and Anfernee Simons. Simons has one year left on his deal. Grant just signed a 5-year contract. Miami has apparently shown interest in acquiring the forward.

Portland’s roster could look a lot different when they tip-off again on Thursday against the Pistons.
