Portland Trail Blazers Receive: Nikola Vucevic

Orlando Magic Receive: Jusuf Nurkic, Robert Covington, Zach Collins, 2022 1st Round Pick, 2024 1st Round Pick

Nikola Vucevic is one of the most underrated big men in the league and is extremely valuable because of his skill-set. He can step out and shoot a three or dominate down low. Having that type of skill-set alongside Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum would go a long way.

This dynamic would work well in Portland because of their style of play. Not having Jusuf Nurkic in the lineup has become a recurring issue for Portland and his presence is missed. The Trail Blazers would have some assets to send Orlando in return for a star player.

Jusuf Nurkic would be the replacement big man being sent back to Orlando. He would have a chance to start and play an extended role with the Magic. Robert covington and Zach Collins, along with two first-round picks, would finish the return for Orlando.

Let’s take a closer look and see how this deal would benefit both sides right away.
