The NBA trade market could erupt this offseason.
The need for roster reinforcements is seen almost everywhere, from championship hopefuls looking for the finishing piece to playoff disappointments deciding they ve had enough of their core. As per usual, there s also a class of bottom-feeders in asset-accumulation mode who have a willingness to deal.
