Indiana Pacers: Jarace Walker 

Are there going to be enough developmental minutes for Jarace Walker with both Pascal Siakam and Obi Toppin on board and the Pacers trying to win now? 

If not, the Pistons should be all over it, as he’s a big, tough forward who can defend all over and shoot the 3-ball. He’s very young and may not fit Indiana’s current timeline, so who knows what will happen before the trade deadline if he isn’t getting many minutes. 

Orlando Magic: Jalen Suggs 

This is a longshot at best, as Suggs is the heart of the Magic and very good on both ends. That said, they haven’t extended him yet and will have some tough financial decisions to make. 

Do they want to go all in on the trio of Suggs, Banchero and Wagner? Will Suggs be the odd man out? 

If the Magic don’t want to give him a max or near max deal, the Pistons could potentially swoop in. An All-Defensive player who can shoot 3’s is the ideal fit with Cade Cunningham. 

This one is a pipe dream but until that contract is signed, nothing is certain.
