In the absence of bigger deals, this Portland-Atlanta one is interesting.
Atlanta did it for SRP and to open a roster spot, everything clear here.
Portland part is more interesting. They added a rotation wing, which they already have plenty of. They also want to open two roster spots according to several writers. Previously they have been mentioned in some JRue trades, but his large salary is more likely to bring more players in than sending them out.
One path could be Thybulle and R.Williams. Thybulle is injured again and out indefinitely. Would they just cut him to open a roster spot? Williams was in rotation, but also plays less than 20 mpg. I guess these two guys are not in their long term plans.
