5 Players who are most likely to be traded before the NBA Trade Deadline

#2 Danilo Gallinari - Oklahoma City Thunder

Danilo Gallinari

Danilo Gallinari was viewed as a future All-Star when he was drafted 6th overall in 2008 by the New York Knicks, but the Italian's first decade in the league was marred by injuries. That said, Gallinari played 68 times for the LA Clippers last season, and he was perhaps unfortunate to miss out on his first All-Star appearance after averaging 19.8 points on 43 percent from beyond the arc.

Gallinari was sent to the OKC Thunder during the summer as part of the trade for Paul George and the forward has continued to perform well, averaging 18.1 points and 5.8 rebounds. However, the 31-year-old has less than six months remaining on his current deal, and he is expected to be traded to a contending team that needs a reliable perimeter shooter.
