The NBA's All-No-Trade Team for 2023-24
Phoenix's Bradley Beal still holds the league's only full no-trade clause. But as always there is a handful of players that, for fine-print reasons, can veto or avoid trades this season
First ICYMI … my late Thursday night story on the start of the NBA Trade Season and some unexpected Lauri Markkanen buzz:
A new team joins NBA Trade Watch
The Utah Jazz were a wholly unexpected .500 team as late as Feb. 25 last season ... even after trading away Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell. This season? The Jazz entered Thursday night’s road date with Portland sporting a better record than only six teams in the league and, as a result, have emerged as a team to monitor as the Feb. 8 trade deadline dribbles closer.
Next … onto an annual tradition for us here this time of year.
Regular readers surely know that, once Dec. 15 hits and NBA Trade Season starts to churn in earnest, we like to publish our All-No-Trade Team … just so you know exactly who cannot be moved without their consent between now and the league’s Feb. 8 trade deadline.
