The Portland Trail Blazers have a trade idea for Jerami Grant that would send him to the Eastern Conference in exchange for a trio of players. Grant's large contract would be great to offload in exchange for some more talent, but there have been no concrete reports about flipping the 31-year-old.

In other news, there have been some rumors regarding center Donovan Clingan. An insider recently linked the sophomore to a trade with an Eastern Conference team.

Finally, an insider gave a bold take on the Damian Lillard signing. The superstar is back on the team that drafted him after two seasons with the Milwaukee Bucks, but is currently recovering from a torn Achilles this past April.
