Trade Deadline Top Assets: Luka Doncic, Jayson Tatum

Bleacher Report refreshed a big board of every team s top three trade assets as the Feb. 5 deadline approaches, labeling squads buyers or sellers and naming the pieces other teams would most covet. The update makes clear that future first round picks and cheap, movable role players are the market s currency, while many stars remain effectively off limits. Notable entries include Derrick White for Boston, Atlanta s valuable New Orleans pick haul, and Pelicans pieces like Murphy and Zion. The Rockets even call Reed Sheppard "Untouchable" while still treating draft equity as the true bargaining chip. Merlin sees the trade winds gathering. Buyers will chase shooting and perimeter defense, sellers will dangle expirings and controllable young pieces, and swaps and distant picks will headline deals more than marquee players. Expect rosters to shuffle after injury news or sudden front office shifts. Keep watching cap room and health reports; they will steer the market.
