Blazers Trade Rumors: Anthony Davis Could Be Next to Go After Giannis Antetokounmpo Deal

The Portland Trail Blazers trade rumors are shifting toward acquiring a star as they sit out of the 2026 NBA draft. The article says Portland has no pick in the 2026 draft, but has assets to use in trades, and that NBA insider Jake Fischer reports the team could pivot from Giannis Antetokounmpo discussions to Washington Wizards big man Anthony Davis if Davis becomes available. It also mentions Portland has interest in Jaylen Brown. The piece argues that adding a proven star could fit Portland’s current context, coming off a 42-40 season under new ownership. The main obstacle is deal structure: Washington reportedly signed point guard Trae Young to a four-year agreement worth about $53 million per season and is set to make the No. 1 overall pick, reducing flexibility for Portland.
