NVM. He can't be traded until Jan 15 even if he consents to it. He has a no-trade clause until July, 2017.
Neither Moe nor Meyers can be moved until Jan 15.
ET and Ezeli can be moved from Dec 15 onwards.
God, we have 0 trade chips. What semblance of value can we muster for a combo of Aminu/Davis/Plums/Noah/2 first rounders?
I spelled it all out in my
The Great Who can be Traded When Thread, but it seems to bear repeating here:
OK, I finally found the definitive source for who can be traded when (along with a lot of other great info on team salaries, drafts pick - including swaps, pick we owe other teams and picks other teams owe us, dates contracts become guaranteed, qualifying offer dates, etc.).
It's the
BasketballInsiders Salary Page for the Blazers.
Most relevant to this discussion:
- 12/15/16 — No-trade restrictions lift on Festus Ezeli, Tim Quarterman and Evan Turner.
- 1/10/17 — Tim Quarterman’s $543,471 guarantees for 2016-17.
- 1/15/17 — No-trade restrictions lift on Allen Crabbe, Mo Harkless and Meyers Leonard.
- 1/27/16 — No-trade restriction lifts on C.J. McCollum.
I'd pretty much figured out the trade restriction dates for Ezeli, Turner, Crabbe, Harkless and Leonard, but this is the first place I've seen the trade restriction date listed for C.J. Could be relative with all the C.J. for Cousins discussions flying around this board.
Here's some future dates of note:
- 6/30/17 — Qualifying offer deadline for Mason Plumlee.
- 6/30/17 — Festus Ezeli’s $7,733,000 guarantees for 2017/18.
- 7/25/17 — Pat Connaughton’s $1.0 million guarantees for 2017-18.
- 10/31/17 — Extension deadlines for Noah Vonleh and Shabazz Napier.
- 1/10/18 — Tim Quarterman’s $905,249 guarantees for 2017-18.
- 6/30/18 — Qualifying offer deadlines for Noah Vonleh, Shabazz Napier, Tim Quarterman and Pat Connaughton.
- 6/30/18 — Jake Layman’s $1,050,262 guarantees for 2018-19.
- 6/29/19 — Estimated player option deadline for Allen Crabbe.
- 6/30/19 — Qualifying offer deadline for Jake Layman.
