Dennis Schroder is believed to be among the players that the Thunder are open to trading for this summer, and Dan Favale of Bleacher Report believes OKC would be interested in swapping the 25-year-old for Jeff Teague:

Jeff Teague is on the books for $3.5 million more than Dennis Schroder next season, but he's a free agent in 2020 and a better off-ball fit beside George and Russell Westbrook.

A trade for Teague would be a short term fix, and the primary aim of the deal would be to get Dennis Schroder's contract off the books a year early.

On the court, Teague would take up a similar role to the German, primarily appearing from the bench but also having the chance to close out games alongside the Thunder's starters. While Teague has been a starter for each of the past seven seasons, the veteran may be motivated to play on a contending team.
