#3 Paul George
In a move that grabbed headlines, Paul George joined hands with 2-time NBA champion Kawhi Leonard to force an NBA trade to the LA Clippers from the OKC Thunder.
However, the move didn't work out as the Clippers fans and George would have expected to as the team crashed out of the Western Conference Finals after taking a 3-1 lead against the Denver Nuggets.

George has since received considerable criticism and backlash for joining the LA Clippers, which means that a change of scenery could work wonders for the prolific swingman.
With a coaching change that has already taken place in LA, it won't be a surprise if Paul George is a part of NBA trade rumors in the next few days.
#4 Victor Oladipo
Victor Oladipo's talent is widely renowned as he is a former Most Improved Player award winner and also made the All-NBA third team in the 2017-18 season. However, there are doubts about whether he could rediscover that form as a ruptured quad tendon in his right knee has kept him out of action for large swathes since 2019.
As per multiple NBA trade rumors, Oladipo could seek a move out of the Indiana Pacers. In this regard, a move to a contender like the Miami Heat or the Milwaukee Bucks could help him revive his career.
#5 Kevin Love
A championship winner, Kevin Love has the ability to improve any championship contender in the league.
Love, who is a brilliant rebounder, has an exemplary outside shot, which makes him a very unique player for his skillset. With the league evolving towards positionless basketball, Love's ability to play the stretch 4 position is an invaluable attribute.
Already a part of a bevy of NBA trade rumors, Kevin Love could look to join a team who is a contender for the championship. However, it might be difficult for him to move from the Cleveland Cavaliers, considering his hefty salary demands.
