NBA trade rumors are swirling once again as Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons is reportedly being targeted by the Orlando Magic and Miami Heat. According to multiple reports, the $100 million guard has drawn interest from a plethora of teams.
Simons, 25, leads the Trail Blazers with 17.1 points, 4.5 assists and 2.6 rebounds per game. While his shooting has been less consistent this season, shooting 40.8% and 32.5% from beyond the arc, he is a career 38.2% 3-point shooter capable of delivering instant offense for teams.
As per odds shared by NBA Central on X (formerly Twitter) from the sportsbook Bovada, the Orlando Magic (+400) and Miami Heat (+500) are leading the race to acquire the guard, who is in the third year of a four-year, $100 million contract.
