NBA Trade Rumors: 9 big names who should be traded and possible deals

Myles Turner

Potential deal: 

Indiana Pacers get: Ish Smith, P.J. Washington, Nick Richards, Kai Jones, 2023 first-round pick (top 10 protected)

Charlotte Hornets get: Myles Turner 

Of course, the initial reaction would be that the Charlotte Hornets would likely have to involve a third team to make it all work (roster number wise) but this is a deal that could benefit both teams heading to the deadline.

The Hornets need a center and Turner would be an ideal fit. The Pacers would get two quality young players in P.J. Washington and Kai Jones, and an additional draft pick that could help them acquire another young talent.

I’d be interested to see how Turner would look playing next to a point guard as talented as LaMelo Ball. And he’d be a valued defensive addition for the Hornets, who have struggled all season on that end of the floor.
