It’s nearly July and that only means one thing: RJ Barrett trade speculation!
Last year, the New York Knicks entertained a big trade with the Utah Jazz which would have brought Donovan Mitchell home to the Big Apple for, among other moving parts, the former Duke star Barrett, before deciding that the price was too high.
This year?
So far, it looks like a trade with the LA Clippers for Paul George is being discussed and apparently some people with the Clippers really like Barrett.
Barrett has been fortunate in that he was drafted by the team that he pulled for all of his life but the NBA is a business and you have to accept that.
