He can be traded straight up for one player right now. 30 days need to pass before he can be traded with another player/draft picks. After the deadline.
The Pistons likely already tried for days to find a taker to send an asset to the Clips but couldn't.
Thunder interested in Avery Bradley In the wake of losing Andre Roberson to a ruptured left patellar tendon for the season, the Oklahoma City Thunder have considered one possibility as a replacement: Avery Bradley. Sources say the Thunder have expressed interest in Bradley, who was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers Monday by the Pistons in the blockbuster deal that sent Blake Griffin to Detroit. Ever since that deal took place, there have been rumblings that the Clippers were considering moving on from the 27-year-old guard, who is in the final year of his contract and doesn’t seem likely to fit into their long-term plans. While Bradley has played below the standard he’d set for himself as a Boston Celtic, he could, in theory, give the Thunder much of what Roberson provided before he got injured. Bradley doesn’t have the same size and strength as Roberson, but has been considered a strong man-to-man defender throughout his career, able to handle either point guards or shooting guards. With the Thunder, that would leave Paul George to guard the opponent’s best bigger wing player each night. In addition, Bradley would give Oklahoma City far more offense than Roberson did; he’s shot 38 percent from three-point range this season and is a career 36.8 percent shooter from deep. Making a move for him to strengthen this year’s team would be another way for the Thunder to prove its commitment to winning to George, who will be an unrestricted free agent this summer. It also wouldn’t be the first time Bradley was considered by the Thunder. Last summer, Fred Katz of The Norman Transcript reported that if the Thunder hadn’t traded its first round pick to the Los Angeles Clippers in 2010, it would have taken Bradley with the No. 18 pick in that draft. There are multiple things, however, that could potentially stand in the way of such a deal. The first is Bradley’s health since he’s dealt with groin issues this season. He’s slated to make his debut for the Clippers Saturday against the Chicago Bulls, health permitting. The other possible complication is Oklahoma City’s lack of assets. The Thunder have no interest in trading its intriguing rookie guard Terrance Ferguson, and has already sent out first-round picks in both 2018 and 2020. That means the first time Oklahoma City could trade a first-round pick would be 2022, a long way out for a team trying to make a deal today, and a long way out for a team as methodical in its planning as the Thunder.
If they're not willing to trade Ferguson might be a problem to find a deal, and i get why they don't want to...i mean, if George stays there next season they just cannot pay Bradley, if George bolts they can but yeah, they don't know yet so, Bradley on paper would be a rental so, giving up Ferguson if they like him that much doesn't sound so great for a three months rental.
I am sure they are interested. But I don't see the assets to get the deal done that would satisfy the Clippers.
http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/...eadline-preview-cavaliers-deandre-jordan-more The Warriors are trying to beef up their bench given wobbly play from Andre Iguodala, Patrick McCaw, Omri Casspi, and Nick Young. They inquired about Avery Bradley, but got nowhere, league sources say. That's not surprising; the Warriors have little to deal beyond minimum-salaried players, second-round picks starting in 2020, and first-rounders they obviously won't flip for bench guys. Could they coax Brooklyn into a Patrick McCaw-Joe Harris swap? Both teams would probably demand a second-round pick as sweetener, leading to a stalemate. Harris is better now, but McCaw is four years younger. The deal would add about $200,000 to Golden State's salary bill -- plus tax -- and believe it or not, the owners actually care. Harris will be an unrestricted free agent this summer; McCaw will be restricted. McCaw has been so uneven, the monster offer sheet Golden State feared may not be coming. The Warriors could just keep him. None of Golden State's other expendable minimum guys have any value.
