OKC is in a talent overspill situation, they can't pay everyone so they need to consolidate their assets
the Spurs are probably fine to stay put
I'd rank it in order of likeliness 1) Rockets 2) Thunder 3) Spurs
You may be right about the Lakers or Knicks. The Lakers have nothing to lose trying to pair Giannis with Luka this summer.
But the Rockets have better assets to offer the Bucks in a trade. Including 2027 and 2029 unprotected first-round picks.
Rockets have Phoenix's 2027 and 2029 unprotected first. With option to swap Suns 2029 pick for Mavericks unprotected first.
