Trade rumors rankings: Dejounte Murray, Bruce Brown, D’Angelo Russell and more

HoopsHype ranks the 15 NBA players who have appeared most often in trade rumors over the previous week ahead of the Thursday trade deadline.

The 2023-24 NBA trade deadline is upon us. Will we see a flurry of trades? Will any big names be dealt? Or will it just be role players switching teams?

Just today, we saw the Detroit Pistons and Utah Jazz swap Kevin Knox for Simone Fontecchio and the Boston Celtics acquire rugged big man Xavier Tillman from the Memphis Grizzlies. The biggest trade on Wednesday came late in the afternoon when the Minnesota Timberwolves picked up Monte Morris from the Pistons.

But what fans want is to see major players get moved, although the likelihood of that happening by tomorrow seems slim.

Regardless, below are the players who have appeared most often in trade rumors over the previous week, as judged by appearances on our Trade Rumors page.
