Trail Blazers News: Portland Expects to Trade Young Frontcourt Star 'At Some Point'

ClutchPoints

The Golden State Warriors are the top suitors for Lauri Markkanen. Despite their eagerness to acquire the star forward, it seems that they aren't eager enough. In exchange for Markkanen, the Utah Jazz are looking to get Brandin Podziemski as part of a trade package. However, it appears that the Warriors aren't willing to let go of Podziemski and remain firm on keeping him.

The Philadelphia Phillies' final deal on MLB trade deadline day came out of nowhere, but now it makes a whole lot of sense, given all the facts uncovered. After trading for left-handed reliever Tanner Banks from the Chicago White Sox, the Phillies swiftly sent southpaw Gregory Soto to Baltimore to join the growing contingent of other former Phillies who are now Orioles.

Nobody is more of a controversial figure in Atlanta sports than Marcell Ozuna, who has a complicated history, to say the least. On one hand, he's performed like one of the best designated hitters in baseball since May of last season, going from a player who looked like he was going to be DFA'd by the Atlanta Braves to the best player in the lineup.

San Diego, CA

The San Diego Padres are on a roll right now. After taking down the Rockies on Sunday, the Padres find themselves 11-3 since the All-Star break and looking like an extremely dangerous team. The rotation has been great, the offense has been clutch, and their retooled bullpen looks as good as any in all of baseball.

Dallas, TX

The Dallas Cowboys have a lot of things to answer during this upcoming season. They have had some regular-season success but it has not translated to the playoffs. There have been some questions that have risen regarding the team's ability to get over the hump in the playoffs. That mixed in with the looming extensions surrounding the team isn't the kind of offseason Dallas envisioned. But that comes with being America's Team.

Cowboys Already Eyeing the Son of Former Star Player

Or Lauri Markkanen or the Jazz, or both, could decide to hold off on a new deal and set up an extended negotiating period in which Markkanen could be traded at any point through February, sign a new deal with the Jazz or just go through the season and hit unrestricted free agency next July. For the Warriors, this would be the green-light scenario. I also think it’s the most likely — my guess is that if Markkanen won’t sign with Utah on Aug. 6, the deal won’t be there for him on Aug. 7 and beyond. I might be wrong, but that is my presumption. If that’s how it works out, it will be time to see what Utah can get on the trade market. And I think the Warriors would be in the front of the line, just as they were a few weeks ago when they first engaged in talks with the Jazz. By the way, I’m going to go ahead and conclude that Scenario 1 is probably a non-starter. According to The Athletic’s Tony Jones, it’s unlikely that Markkanen will sign the new deal by Tuesday, which makes sense. The 27-year-old Markkanen knows he’s going to get major money either now or next summer. By not signing this week, Markkanen essentially gains a bit of control over his future.

New York City, NY

The New York Knicks left the 2024 NBA Draft with four rookies. Pacome Dadiet (No. 25) signed a standard rookie contract, Tyler Kolek (No. 34) signed a contract that made history for a second-round pick, and Ariel Hukporti (No. 58) signed a two-way contract. All that's left was to sign Kevin McCullar (No. 56) to a contract.

Former NC State star DJ Horne officially landed his first professional basketball contract, signing to play wth MLP Academics Heidelberg of the German Bundesliga. After going undrafted despite speculation he'd sneak into the second round, Horne played in the NBA Summer League with the San Antonio Spurs. He played sparingly but has a proven reputation as a leader and consistent scorer, making him a logical fit for a team overseas.
