The winter trade deadline is in ten days now! Discussions will intensify between franchises, like the latest big rumors reported by Shams Charania. TrashTalk took the opportunity to give you a whole plethora of information… and it’s worth taking stock.
As usual during trade deadlines, TrashTalk cross-checks public sources and its “inside” sources to bring you the latest NBA transfer news and trends. Here is the information as of January 30, 2023.
Alright, it’s time for the news load. Trade deadline 2023, only 10 days left, we’re talking regarding it in detail tonight on Twitch but I’ll send the recap in the following tweets!

???? The Knicks would like to use Evan Fournier in a larger scale trade.
With his contract (18 million a year), Fournier would be the ideal piece to complete a package in exchange for an All-Star this summer, or in exchange for a large expiring contract.

???? Cam Reddish would be sure to transfer within 10 days.
The Knicks would like to obtain a Rui Hachimura-style package, they will try to obtain 2 second rounds of the Draft until the buzzer and will consider other scenarios if this one does not exist.

???? The Suns and Jazz are pushing hard to get John Collins.
Utah has been working on it for months, Phoenix has worked on several 2-3 team scenarios including Jae Crowder.
For the moment, Atlanta does not want to trade Collins at a discount, that might change within 10 days. pic.twitter.com/SNfl9uNbdW

???? Rob Pelinka is not done, the Lakers still have a trade to complete within 10 days.
The door is not closed on a transfer of Russell Westbrook, whose rating has changed since last September.
Pelinka will watch the market until the buzzer, watch out for the next trade. pic.twitter.com/co1MMmqR3s

???? The Lakers and Mavs are the teams in pole position on the Zach LaVine file.
Difficult – but not impossible – to consider a trade at the deadline. However, Mavs and Lakers are already preparing the ground to resume talks this summer to get LaVine back. pic.twitter.com/DCMyilHqUR
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Rui Hachimura should have ended up in Phoenix.
The Suns, Bucks and Wizards were close to a trade that would have sent Rui to the Suns, Jae Crowder to the Bucks, and Kris Dunn + picks to Washington.
There was a problem between Suns and Bucks, the Lakers dealt with Washington. pic.twitter.com/GATxLCZYcT
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Jae Crowder would have a 100% chance of being transferred by the deadline.
Milwaukee in pole position with George Hill, Serge Ibaka and Jordan Nwora in the deal. Phoenix not interested in Grayson Allen, would seek a 3rd team to make a deal.
Miami and Atlanta on Crowder. pic.twitter.com/CRUoDdwIeC

???? Several teams would contact the Heat to gauge Kyle Lowry, without comment at this time.
Miami would like to give this group a chance in the second half of the season, before seriously looking into the Lowry case this summer.
Unlikely to see a trade from Kyle. pic.twitter.com/gukSwH77ja
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Dario Saric is available for transfer.
Big intrigue in the League concerning the new owner of the Suns, which might incite some movements as soon as he arrives before the deadline.
If impossible / too short: see you this summer for changes. pic.twitter.com/otWfZQ2F1K
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Matisse Thybulle is available.
The discussions have been intensifying for 1 month, the Sixers have not given any indication of wanting to extend it and Thybulle’s rating remains very high in the League.
Keep an eye on: Competitive team looking for defense and a bit of focus. pic.twitter.com/o1weiimIZe
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Josh Hart is the hottest name in transfer talks right now.
Multiple executives say Portland won’t be able to extend Hart and Jerami Grant this summer.
A highly desired player, Portland has made several players available on the market (package). pic.twitter.com/pQs4HuC590
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? No rumors regarding Jusuf Nurkic currently.
Murmurs, but nothing concrete at the precise time. What might and should change in the next 10 days, Joe Cronin might settle (1) the Hart case first and then (2) the Nurkic case.
To be followed closely. pic.twitter.com/bqdR7Ep3a6
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Blazers, Knicks et Suns a pole position sur AND Anunoby.
Toronto would hope to obtain a package at Dejounte Murray, but difficult to see it looming at the deadline.
Option (and very likely scenario): see you this summer to resume these deadline discussions. pic.twitter.com/fygd2cIX7F
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Gary Trent Jr has the best chance of being transferred to the Raptors side at the deadline.
There have been some rumors of a possible extension, but the guideline does not seem to have changed at the moment: it is GTJ, ahead of VanVleet, who might be transferred. pic.twitter.com/MmfQeraF6j
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Stephen Curry has reminded internally of his desire to win the title this season.
The recent public report on the Bob Meyers-Warriors relationship would weaken the situation 10 days from the deadline.
For the moment: JaMychal Green transferable + buyout market. To monitor. pic.twitter.com/NhufHkQPZ6
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? The Wizards are extremely clear with other NBA teams: no upcoming Kyle Kuzma trades.
The recent transfer of Rui Hachimura was confirmed by this position in discussions with other franchises.

— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? More and more teams think that Bojan Bogdanovic will not be transferred by the deadline.
Detroit is in no rush, discussions can resume ahead of the 2023 Draft, with the precise order of the Draft following the lottery, to better use Bojan in trade. pic.twitter.com/Yi7w1Q8DIh
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Dallas remains committed to finding a co-star for Luka Doncic.
Hard to find and especially hard to ride an exciting Mavs coast package. Dorian Finney-Smith was added to the potentially transferable players, along with Hardaway Jr or Powell.
Josh Green : indisponible. pic.twitter.com/CN63RWhit8
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Watch Monte McNair, a trade might come Sacramento side.
Nothing major, the holders will not move but the bench must be reinforced, especially defensively.
Inside and on the wings Terence Davis was mentioned, there were whispers regarding Thybulle. pic.twitter.com/JRDKvUJb04— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Brad Stevens continues to observe his options to strengthen the Boston racquet.
Still so many links with Jakob Poeltl, but the Spurs remain determined to obtain expensive in exchange. In addition to having to extend Poeltl this summer, not sure that the Celtics will pounce on him. pic.twitter.com/wOhuYAsVJz
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Bones Hyland would be available, the Nuggets are discussing a potential transfer concerning him.
To be extended soon, like Bruce Brown, the scorer might be transferred to the deadline to avoid putting Denver in a complicated financial situation. pic.twitter.com/6OoCirtjbQ
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? D’Angelo Russell should not be transferred at the deadline.
Naz Reid and Jaylen Nowell have been mentioned, but Minnesota would really like to keep Naz and let Nowell go this summer instead.
Regarding D-Lo: to be discussed once more this summer, but complicated file to predict. pic.twitter.com/sY9J0GZXdG
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Alex Caruso is in the sights of around 10 teams, but the Bulls don’t seem to want to transfer him.
There would have been more reflection around Andre Drummond, but therefore nothing concrete around the LaVine – DeRozan – Vucevic trio.
See you at Draft 2023? pic.twitter.com/QpugwxGo44
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? The Hornets would like to extend PJ Washington.
While he was not extended this fall, PJ had a solid season and Charlotte would like to count on him for the long term.

???? Utah should decide at the finish and raise the stakes until February 9th.
In order: Jared Vanderbilt, Malik Beasley then transferable Mike Conley.

— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? The Clippers would like to strengthen their leadership position as a priority.
Terance Mann is unavailable at the moment, management appreciates him too much and he has been used in this position as a backup.
Backup still pivots in priorities, but leads to watch until Feb. 9. pic.twitter.com/4DIf3uBTwq
— TrashTalk (@TrashTalk_fr) January 30, 2023
???? Houston does not want to transfer KJ Martin for a 2nd round of Draft only.
The Rockets believe they can get more in return.
Concerning Eric Gordon, transfer almost inevitable, the counterpart has less and less importance with 10 days of the trade deadline. pic.twitter.com/FOrr3XAXC4
