Welcome to the OKC Thunder Wire trade week.
Over the next seven days, staff writers will be posting our own trade ideas that the Oklahoma City Thunder could pursue if they are looking to rebuild.
Many of these trade proposals will involve point guard Chris Paul, sixth man Dennis Schroder or center Steven Adams. They are the three most expensive contracts on the team, they don’t fit a rebuild timeline and can be viewed as positive assets for other teams.
The Thunder appear to be entering a rebuilding phase with the departure of Billy Donovan. With the salary cap and luxury tax floor expected to decline and Schroder and Adams both on expiring deals, it makes sense for them to get a head start on the new young corps that can play around Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in the future.
Tune in daily to check out different trade avenues the Thunder could pursue to cut costs and retrieve players for the future.
This post will be updated daily with links to content throughout the week.
