Trail Blazers that could be traded: 1. Matisse Thybulle

The final player on this list is Matisse Thybulle. Unlike the other two players, Thybulle is a lot more tradable from a salary perspective due to the fact that he is owed $10.5 million annually over the next three years. Still, Thybulle has a lot less value than the other two players on the list.

Because Thybulle is owed that much money over the next three years, it's hard to find a team that would give even heavily protected first-round pick for the role player. It is great that Thybulle got a three-year deal that gives him financial security and allows him to prove his worth in the NBA foreseeable future. Still, it's hard to find a team that is willing to give mid-level exception money for a player who played his way out of Philly.

While he is a great defender in the league, there are legitmate concerns about his offensive game. Unless he is completely locking down the other team's best player, it's hard to find a basketball legitimate reason to give him top bench minutes. Unless things changes, this is what it makes it hard to find a deal for Thybulle.
