5 players who could be traded before the NBA trade deadline

#3 DeMar DeRozan (San Antonio Spurs)

DeMar DeRozan rises for a three against the New Orleans Pelicans.

DeMar DeRozan is another player for a trade deal before the March deadline this season.

DeRozan is reportedly not happy in his current role with the San Antonio Spurs and could be on his way out of the franchise. He will probably become a free agent next summer and is expected to opt out of his contract with the Spurs.

The 31-year-old guard is not getting any younger and could probably aim to join a title contender as he reigns in on possibly his final long-term contract in the NBA.

DeRozan is still one of the best two guards in the league and has a lot to offer before he enters his twilight years.

#4 Victor Oladipo (Houston Rockets)

The NBA is buzzing with anticipation for Victor Oladipo's next landing spot, as many insiders have claimed that the Houston Rockets got him over as a trade asset.

Oladipo could be looking to get out of Houston, as he won't be the primary point guard in the franchise's lineup and has shown little interest in playing with them.

Oladipo has an impressive resume for suitors lining up to bring him over. There have been several reports that Oladipo wants to take his talents to the Miami Heat. If such a deal works out, the Heat would add one more piece that could help them break out of their early-season rout.

#5 Kevin Love (Cleveland Cavaliers)

Kevin Love has done a magnificent job in his time with the Cleveland Cavaliers, but he is an ageing veteran in a team that needs to be in rebuilding mode for the future. T

here has been a lot of speculation about where the big guy goes next. His fans would love to see him compete at the highest level of the game before it's all set and done.

With this triple, @kevinlove eclipses the 13,000-point mark for his career and becomes just the ninth player in NBA history with 13,000 points, 7,000 rebounds, and 1,000 three-pointers made.#BeTheFight pic.twitter.com/oAa9TTY9k1

Kevin Love has proven his worth as an NBA champion back in 2016 with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

He is still a sharpshooter who can stretch the floor for his teammates. He still has a lot left in his tank and could play good minutes for a team eyeing a deep playoff run this season.
