Amongst everything written about the need for a Blazers’ trade, it looks like we have our first real rumor. Philadelphia’s Nerlens Noel has been linked to the Trail Blazers, with Allen Crabbe rumored to be the asking price per Sam Amico of Amico Hoops.
The 76ers have a log jam of their own in the post. They have a rising star in “rookie” Joel Embiid and then a solid counterpart in Jahlil Okafor. Embiid has impressed this season with his range and shot blocking ability. While Okafor has been impressive with his college fundamentals translating well to the NBA.
