Knicks Trade Rumors: Fournier, Toppin for Beasley, Vanderbilt ... (Bleacher Report)

The New York Knicks have held "exploratory conversations" to acquire Malik Beasley and Jarred Vanderbilt from the Utah Jazz, according to.

He's averaging 6.7 points and 3.3 rebounds off the bench this year and is unlikely to see more minutes while Julius Randle remains healthy. The 30-year-old, who has only played two of the last 12 games, is owed $18 million this year and $18.9 million next year. Dealing Toppin would be a bigger loss for New York, but the 2020 No. Beasley is only two years removed from averaging 19.5 points per game while shooting 39.9 percent from three-point range with the Minnesota Timberwolves in 2020-21. New York entered Saturday seventh in the Eastern Conference with a 28-25 record.

Beasley is a poor defender, so he couldn’t be on the floor at the same time as Jalen Brunson. It just seems like they’re capping their versatility, which is a thing that happens often with Thibs-coached teams. Vanderbilt is a rugged, defense-minded big man who can play both power forward and center, though under Tom Thibodeau, the 6’9” Vanderbilt would probably exclusively play at the 4.

New York Knicks and Utah Jazz reportedly in talks for blockbuster ... (Yardbarker)

While this year's NBA trade deadline could be quieter than years past, the New York Knicks and Utah Jazz are reportedly in talks for a potential deal that ...

The 49ers had the first pick in that draft and there was a ton of speculation that Rodgers was worthy of the No. With less than a week until the deadline, the Sixers have many decisions to make, including the recent rumors surrounding Jarred Vanderbilt and the fate of Matisse Thybulle. Siakam is the Raptors leading scorer (24.8 points) and is hot on the heels of VanFleet for the team lead in assists per game (6.2). Only one of those teams finished a season in the top 10 in yards gained, while only four finished in the top 10 in points scored. UFC president, Dana White has just announced that Conor McGregor will take part in The Ultimate Fighter show as a coach against Michael Chandler and then once the season ends, they will face off inside the octagon. Still, the "discarded coaches dumpster" is full of great coordinators who couldn't cut it as head coaches and even more solid position coaches who couldn't cut it as coordinators. Ryans was introduced by the Texans and was asked how difficult it was for him to reject the Broncos to take the Houston job. It seems that New York could package the duo, and possibly more, in a trade to Utah in the coming day. The pair were a part of the blockbuster trade that brought Rudy Gobert to Minnesota from Utah in the summer. As for the rest of Toronto's likely trade candidates, Fred VanVleet has continued to move up the odds chart and now sits at -280 to be dealt, implying a 74% probability. As for the top of the chart, Jae Crowder and Irving are listed at -500, the most likely players to be dealt. A story on the Knicks and Jazz making a trade is likely to bring New York fans some bad memories.

Report: Knicks, Jazz discuss Obi Toppin trade (Empire Sports Media)

The Knicks and the Jazz have had exploratory discussions surrounding Toppin, Evan Fournier, and a future draft pick for Malik Beasley and Jarred Vanderbilt, ...

Fournier is owed around $36 million guaranteed money until next season before his contract essentially becomes expiring with the $19 million team option in the final year (2024-25). Both players were part of the Rudy Gobert haul which the Jazz wanted to flip as they rebuild around first-time All-Star Lauri Markkanen. “Utah is seeking the equivalent of a first-round pick to acquire each player. But he’s shot 43.3 percent from downtown in his limited time on the court. Thus far, New York has been reluctant to attach a first-round pick to move off Fournier’s salary.” [Mike Scotto via HoopsHype] Toppin is extension-eligible this summer, but the 2020 No.

Knicks, Jazz discussing blockbuster trade involving multiple players ... (Yardbarker)

The specific draft assets going from the Knicks to the Jazz presumably represent the sticking point in the talks between the two teams.

Burrow and Chase are going to be the priorities, and they are going to take up the most significant portion of the team's salary cap space. Given the presence of Chase, Boyd and tight end Hayden Hurst, as well as the probability that they end up losing Higgins in a year anyway, a trade for a first-round pick might be the best course of action this offseason. That is going to cost the Bengals some good players around the rest of the roster. That is why losing the Super Bowl a year ago and losing the AFC Championship game this year is so disappointing for the Bengals. For as much as he struggled during the 2022 season, and for as bad as he looked at times, they still made a huge investment in him, and he has still only played a handful of games in the NFL. On the flip side of the deal, the Packers would be able to get an elite young piece with the No. Higgins is entering the final year of his contract, and is scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent after the 2023 season. 2 overall pick from the 2021 draft, with the hopes that he can continue to learn and develop as a backup. The Broncos made Wilson the centerpiece of their team in 2021 and the quarterback simply failed to deliver. Still, the "discarded coaches dumpster" is full of great coordinators who couldn't cut it as head coaches and even more solid position coaches who couldn't cut it as coordinators. The Knicks also have the ability to add protections to their own first-rounders if they’re willing to trade one or more of them. Of those selections, only Milwaukee’s has a chance to ultimately land in the top eight.
