Less than 20 days left to the trade deadline, and Malcom Brogdon, the all-around point guard of Portland Trail Blazers, has become one of this winter market's most prized players. Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints reported that the Philadelphia 76ers, Orlando Magic, New York Knicks and Los Angeles Lakers have put their eyes on the 31-year talented player.

Brogdon's situation comes at a crucial time for the Blazers, who are looking to fine-tune their roster in the midst of a difficult season with a 12-30 record.

The possibility of trading Brogdon for draft picks appears to be a logical option for the Portland team as they look to build for the future.

The potential trade scenario is clear: Magic, Lakers, Knicks and Sixers are determined to strengthen their positions in the race for the NBA ring, while the Blazers are looking to move forward in their rebuilding process. However, the price for such trades will have to be transparent and well-defined for all the teams involved, as they will have to sacrifice long-term assets.

This season, Malcolm Brogdon is averaging 15.5 points, 3.6 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game having played in 33 games so far, 19 of them as a starter for the Blazers.
