Phoenix Suns Receive: Damian Lillard

Portland Trail Blazers Receive: Ricky Rubio, Kelly Oubre Jr., Cameron Johnson, 2020 1st Round Pick (No. 10 Pick), 2022 1st Round Pick, 2023 1st Round Pick (Swap More Valuable), 2024 1st Round Pick

Reminiscent of the trade between the Los Angeles Clippers and Oklahoma City Thunder centered around Paul George, this particular trade package would involve four 1st round selections.

The primary objective for the Suns is to take the next step in the Western Conference— no better way to do so than to trade for a superstar like Damian Lillard. However, emphasizing more on draft compensation is the best approach to maximize immediate results.

With a backcourt duo of Damian Lillard and Devin Booker along with key standouts like Mikal Bridges and Deandre Ayton, the Suns would be ready to compete at a high-level. Meanwhile, the Portland Trail Blazers would have what they need to undergo a long-term rebuild.
