Brook Lopez – Brooklyn Nets to the Oklahoma City Thunder
It appeared as though Lopez was heading to OKC last month as talks intensified regarding a three-team trade deal with the Hornets also involved.
However, those negotiations broke down as the Nets didn’t see anything that they liked and so Lopez remains in Brooklyn for the team being.
It is no secret that the Nets management are looking to rebuild and shed the salary currently on their books which puts them in luxury tax hell, and Lopez is one of the most obvious choices to offload.
The Denver Nuggets have also been mentioned in this conversation, but I just don’t see what they have in return to make this deal happen while you could argue that Lopez is not a good fit for the team given the improvement of rookie center Jusuf Nurkic.
