NBA Trade Rumors: Nerlens Noel, Brandon Knight Involved In A 76ers-Rockets-Suns Trade?

Recent development regarding a three-team trade involving the Philadelphia 76ers, Houston Rockets and Phoenix Suns are brewing. Reports are indicating that Nerlens Noel will end up with Houston while Brandon Knight will go to Philadelphia. Phoenix will have two draft picks this year.

According to Fox Sports' Andrew Lynch the trade idea would make a significant difference in possibly ending the Warrior's supremacy. While the 76ers have already acquired Brandon Knight and Archie Goodwin, their projected win-loss record for the upcoming season is not that high since their rookies Ben Simmons, Joel Embiid, Jahlil and Dario Saric will need more developments.

The Houston Rockets on the other hand, was not able to retain Clint Capela and K.K McDaniels but already has Nerlens Noel in their lineup. While Nerlens Noel may not bring a threat to the Warriors at this time but the Rockets will be able to take advantage of this new line up in the long-term. The combination of Patrick Beverly, James Harden and Noel would eventually lead to bringing down the Golden State's dynasty later on.

The Phoenix Sun which was able to get Capela and McDaniels may also not be able to get more from this team as just like the 76ers, the team's projected development for its players is for the long-term. The two young players also still need more developments but will definitely complement the Sun's main players such as Devin Booker, Alex Len and Eric Bledsoe.

While this outside-the-box trades may not yet be set in placed but these trades would definitely be valuable to the three teams especially if they want to make a good foundation in ending the reign of the Warriors. This would also give us something new to talk about as we find further developments in each team. But for now, we just have to wait for the NBA trade and what they have in store for us.
