The Brooklyn Nets are starting to find their footing after some rough moments early in the season and drama surrounding Kyrie Irving. Kevin Durant remains as efficient as ever but his health has been in question over the last few seasons. Could the Nets swing a deal for another star? Here's some moves Brooklyn could explore this trade season.
Trade 1
Collins is a huge boost in the frontcourt for the Nets, who will gladly sacrifice the future asset for immediate help. Losing Harris' shooting and Sharpe's potential is the price of business here. The Hawks get some point guard depth, wing shooting and a young big in addition to a draft asset for a player they're trying to move on from.
Trade 2
The draft pick doesn't really help Charlotte immediately but getting out of Rozier's long-term deal provides some benefit. Harris might actually be a better fit next to LaMelo Ball. As for the Nets, they get another scorer offensively who can also carry a second unit effectively. If Rozier weren't so inefficient, the price point would be a lot higher.
Trade 3
This is similar to the rumored Lakers deal but with better players going back to Indiana. Harris, O'Neale and Thomas all have long-term value for Indiana. The future draft picks are nice. Turner adds some much-needed help on the interior for Brooklyn, while Hield provides some more defensive chops than Harris. If Turner keeps playing the way he is, the deal would vault Brooklyn into the upper realm of the East.
