Brooklyn Nets forward Michael Porter Jr. Has been mentioned in trade talks this month.
Bleacher Report's Zach Buckley proposed a massive trade Thursday involving the forward.
Brooklyn would send Porter and Haywood Highsmith to the Golden State Warriors for Jonathan Kuminga, Moses Moody and Buddy Hield. The Nets would also land Golden State's 2028 first-round pick (top-five protected) and 2030 first-round pick swap (21-30 protected).
"The Nets already had Porter and Highsmith salary-dumped onto their laps. Being able to now flip them for additional assets would be the kind of great basketball business that every rebuilder should try to broker," Buckley said.
The most important part of the trade for Brooklyn might be the future picks.
"The real prizes would be the pick and the swap, though, which would rocket in value if Curry doesn't extend his Golden State stay beyond his current contract, which expires after next season," he said.

Hield has been considered one of the NBA's top shooters since entering the league, while Moody is shooting 38.2% this season. Kuminga might be an enticing young piece for the Nets.
"After loading up on playmakers at the draft, Brooklyn could squeeze plenty of juice out of play-finishers like Kuminga, Moody and even Hield (who'd stick around as long as needed to attract a shooting-starved shopper)."
Porter has had an excellent start to this season, averaging a career-best 25.7 points per game on 49.1% shooting.
The Nets sent Cam Johnson to the Denver Nuggets for Porter and a 2032 first-round pick last offseason. The Bucks and Pistons have also been mentioned as potential suitors for him.
