NBA Trade Rumors: Nerlens Noel Might Land In Cleveland Cavaliers

NBA trade rumors has often seen Nerlens Noel being talked about. This offseason NBA trade rumors has been particularly interesting. We have seen that Kevin Durant has joined the Warriors. Similarly, many teams are grabbing players to make their roster better. Now, NBA rumors are ablaze that Nerlens Noel is all set to take a place in Cleveland Cavaliers if the Cavs and Sixers are able to manage a huge trade.

The Philadelphia 76ers has not been in shape from a long time. This is due to the fact that the General Manager of the team is now using a "tanking" strategy, according to NBA rumors. The team is pitched to lose on purpose. This will enable them to get high draft picks with whom the team can be rebuilt and made strong for future games. In the process, they have been a very bad team for the past several years. We can see the results of this strategy materialize when the Sixers drafted Ben Simmons with the first pick in this year's NBA Draft reported the Inquisitr.

Simmons is often compared to the superstar of Cleveland, LeBron James. The Philadelphia fans were elated when Simmons was picked by the team. NBA rumors suggest that this pick, however, has created confusion as to who will take the forward spot. This is the reason that is pushing Sixers to take the decision to trade Nerlens Noel or Jahlil Okafor before the next season starts, reported The Bitbag.

If Nerlens Noel is being traded, the one place that he might join would be the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is an interesting NBA trade rumor that is doing rounds now. If Noel joins the Cavs, it will instantly make the other champions in the team better. This is because Noel is a young defensive forward and he has the ability to rebound and also block the shots. The Cavs lost Timofey Mozgov in free agency and the NBA trade rumors suggest that they would be trading Kevin Love.

To take Noel into the team, the Cleveland Cavaliers should forgo Iman Shumpert or J.R. Smith. Kevin Love might not be picked by the Philadelphia 76ers as his addition will crowd their frontcourt. If the Sixers take in Kevin Love, then they will have to wait for a third team to pick him and trade a guard or draft picks in return.

Though the NBA trade rumors suggest the Noel-Cavs trade, we should wait to see if it were to actually happen. The Cavaliers fans wait for things to unveil. Stay tuned to Parent Herald for more NBA trade rumors.
