Rumor: Three-Way Trade Involving Sixers, Celtics, Warriors Brewing?
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Nerlens Noel trade rumors are back.
Brian Scalabrine of Yahoo! reports that the Golden State warriors are listening to offers involving Klay Thompson, as they are seeking a rim protector.
"I heard this weekend that Klay Thompson may be available, I heard that rumor going around involved w/ a team that wears green" @Scalabrine

According to Scalabrine, the Warriors would acquire Avery Bradley, Jae Crowder and the right to swap first-round picks with the Brooklyn Nets for Thompson.

So where do the Sixers come in?
The Warriors would then flip the Nets' first-round pick for Noel, something that Scalabrine mentioned on a Facebook Live segment per CSNNE. Potentially, the Sixers could acquire one of Bradley or Crowder along with the pick, as well.
Granted, it still seems pretty unlikely that the Warriors would trade Thompson, one of the best two-way players in the NBA.
