NBA big-names most likely to be traded: Victor Oladipo

The Houston Rockets may have just acquired Victor Oladipo but I have this sense that they aren’t going to sign him to a big extension this offseason and assuming that is the case, it would be wise of them to try and ship him off and get all they could get for him at the NBA Trade Deadline.

The Rockets have quickly fallen off playoff pace in the Western Conference and are now four games out of the 8th seed. With Christian Wood still out of the lineup due to injury, they’re only going to fall further away from playoff contention over the next few weeks.

Oladipo has been good for the Rockets and is proving that perhaps he might be worth a max extension this offseason. Would a struggling playoff contender take a big swing by making a move for Oladipo – *cough* Miami Heat *cough*?
