Do you believe the OKC Thunder should make a major trade by the deadline? If you believe so, who? If not, why?

They have the assets to bring anybody. Should they go for a guy like Caruso/Levine, or potentially Siakam/Anunoby?

Or should they stick with Cason Wallace at the 5? What do you think?

I think they should make a play for Lauri. Ainge would love some draft picks, they have the Bertans contract which matches Lauris salary. Lauri is a great front court player for the team

This is probably the Thunder fandom’s dream player, but I just can’t see Ainge letting Markkanen go. The Jazz already got 7 firsts and 3 swaps from the Mitchell and Gobert trades. Will getting even more really move the needle that much? I thought OKC should try to get Lauri and Olynyk, but I just can’t see Utah letting Lauri go.

Ainge loves draft picks, it's possible. Cavs and wolves picks may be just mid. Thunder have some that could be valuable
