Covington, McLemore Interest Rising on NBA Trade Market

The NBA trade deadline is eight days away and the Portland Trail Blazers are rumored to be active participants on the market. While many names from the roster have been mentioned as likely trade candidates, according to Bleacher Report’s Jake Fischer, one Trail Blazer is the most likely to be moved.

The Blazers front court pair of Jusuf Nurkic and Robert Covington are both on the final years of expiring contracts and have come up heavily in trade speculation. Fischer said all signs indicate Covington will be the player Portland moves before the deadline.
