"OKC Thunder Acquire Gordon Hayward in Trade with Hornets: Analysis and Impact"

The Oklahoma City Thunder are acquiring former All-Star Gordon Hayward from the Charlotte Hornets for Tre Mann, Vasilije Micic, and Davis Bertans, providing the Thunder with a veteran presence and shooting ability. The Thunder's acquisition of Hayward is seen as a positive move, as they gave away little from their core rotation and took on no long-term salary. Meanwhile, the Hornets are in asset-collection mode and receive a 2021 first-round pick in Mann, who has potential and was blocked from a consistent role in Oklahoma City. Overall, the trade is considered a win-win for both teams.

"Warriors Explore Major Trade Shake-Up: Murray, Hayward, and Lowry on the Radar"

The Golden State Warriors are open to trade discussions for most players except Stephen Curry, with Andrew Wiggins, Chris Paul, and possibly Klay Thompson among potential trade candidates, while young players like Jonathan Kuminga and Brandin Podziemski are unlikely to be moved. Hawks' Dejounte Murray is a strong trade candidate, but coach Quin Snyder wants to keep him, and the Hornets may explore trading Gordon Hayward and Kyle Lowry, who could become buyout candidates if not traded. The Knicks may consider making a trade to offset the potential loss of Julius Randle due to a shoulder injury, and just 11 NBA teams control 75% of the first-round draft picks available for trading.
