NBA Trade Rumors: Predicting where the top 20 deadline candidates will land

12. Malik Beasley, Utah Jazz

Much as we discussed earlier with the Utah Jazz, I believe that this team will be open to making a move at the deadline but will also be careful about what they end up pulling the trigger on. Nevertheless, I fully expect the Jazz to make a move.

And part of making that move will be to send Malik Beasley to the Atlanta Hawks. This will be part of a bigger move that we will discuss later, but Beasley would be a solid addition to the Hawks. Especially if they’re looking to make a move up to the East standings during the second half of the season.

She may not be a star at this point of his career but he’s extremely productive and would give the Hawks an additional 3-point shooter. With how much the Hawks have struggled overall this season, adding a couple of pieces at the trade deadline could go a long way in sparking this team toward a rebound during the second half of the season.

Prediction: He’s traded to the Atlanta Hawks.
