Several suitors interested in trading first-round pick for Tyler Herro

Through creative negotiating, an NBA source said that the Blazers should be able to net four first-round picks and players with manageable contracts, maybe even a young star that fits better than Herro, if they play their hand correctly. -via Oregonian / July 6, 2023

Portland doesn’t want guard Tyler Herro and the four years and $120 million owed on his extension, but there are teams that have told ESPN they would surrender a good first-round pick to the Blazers — maybe something more — to become a facilitator by taking on Herro in a three-way deal. -via ESPN / July 6, 2023

NBA guru Brian Windhorst of ESPN has dropped a crucial update on this whole trade saga. According to Windy, the Nets could be in the mix for Herro: “It’s been reported that the Nets would have interest in Herro, and I have heard that as well,” Windhorst said. They offloaded three contracts in the last few days… They’re actually a candidate to make a trade where they bring in more salary than they send out.” -via Clutch Points / July 6, 2023
