Potential trade: Luol Deng and Chris Andersen for Terrence Jones, Corey Brewer and K.J. McDaniels

With Josh Smith back in Houston and Clint Capela as an other young, growing power forward, Terrence Jones’ time with the Rockets is likely coming to an end. ESPN reported a couple months ago that the Rockets were in “serious” discussions to move Jones and Brewer, whose minutes have dropped significantly.

While Jones would most likely walk in the offseason, the Heat would have to hold onto Brewer and McDaniels. The silver lining in this trade is McDaniels, the 22-year-old shooting guard with tremendous potential on a friendly three-year/10 million dollar contract. McDaniels has had little use in Houston’s crowded rotation so a change in scenery might fare well for the sophomore in Miami.
