Speculation of a potential Michael Porter Jr. trade to the Golden State Warriors has been surging on social media, perhaps sparked by Draymond Green's intriguing comments on the Brooklyn Nets forward recently on his podcast.
The Athletic's John Hollinger certainly hasn't quietened optimism among Warrior fans by reporting on Saturday that Porter is a 'lock' to be moved by the deadline. Now, the Nets have only added to the trade chatter themselves by making the curious move to rest Porter from Sunday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies.
