NBA Trade Rumors: 5 teams that should pursue Caris LeVert on the trade market.
When it was reported that the Indiana Pacers had hired Rick Carlisle to be the team’s next head coach, there was always a chance that a retooling of some sort was going to take place at some point this season.
Turns out, all it took was a bad quarter of the season for the front office to come around to that idea. According to a report, the Pacers are ready to give their roster a facelift and are willing to hear trade offers for Caris LeVert and Domantas Sabonis, or Myles Turner.
LeVert is an interesting player to hit the trade block. So far this season, he’s averaging 15 points, three rebounds, and three assists on 42 percent shooting from the field. He’s a 6-foot-6 guard that has shown the ability to play both on-and-off the ball – he averaged six assists per game for the Brooklyn Nets during the first part of the 2020-21 season, before he was traded to the Pacers.
He’s a name that will gain some traction if he is indeed on the trade market. So, which teams should be in on the LeVert sweepstakes? We explore.
