4. Myles Turner, Indiana Pacers

One player who is no stranger to trade rumors is Indiana Pacers big man Myles Turner. A former 2015 first-round pick, Turner has spent the entirety of his career with the Pacers. But, he is entering the final year of his four-year, $80 million contract with the team. As is the case, any team with an impending free agent will see what they can get for them in return.

This past season, Turner played in a total of 42 games averaging 12.9 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 2.8 blocks.

To the surprise of no one, not even Turner himself, he has been subjected to trade rumors this offseason. The most notable surfaced last month, where he and Buddy Hield were linked to a trade to the Los Angeles Lakers, with Westbrook coming over to Indiana. Yet, nothing has come of it.

Given his contract situation, Turner being on the move out of Indiana can be seen as a likely scenario.
