Idk probably a good amount of teams. He just became available a week ago.

Yet so far the list of teams that their beat writers have said they're not trading for Kyrie far outweighs those that have said they'd be interested in him.

They’d get a better return waiting till the deadline to trade him to a desperate contender looking for one last piece. The lakers aren’t getting him for Westbrook. That’s just not happening. And the nets said they’re not accommodating kyries wants.

According to the dude that was the first with the KD leaks...

• The Nets want Bam Adebayo in a KD trade but the Nets would have to find a third team to take Ben Simmons. The Heat tried to find a third team but couldn't as everyone wants picks to take on his deal so the Nets are currently calling teams about him.

Sources say the Cavs are still hopeful and optimistic about a Collin Sexton deal. Both sides want a deal — at the right price. There’s not only been positive recent dialogue but potential Sexton suitors continue to dwindle, with few cap-space teams capable of giving him the lucrative offer he covets and one the Cavs wouldn’t want to match. In many ways, Sexton’s situation has played out exactly how the Cavs anticipated, validating their belief about restricted free agency being advantageous and the market being in their favor, especially with Sexton coming off an 11-game season and significant meniscus tear. ‘He has no market,’ an opposing executive told cleveland.com.

Posturing posturing posturing. They ain't getting BI or Barnes and will eventually realize everyone else sees KD's value as lower than they do. The length on his contract means nothing to him clearly so why should teams care about that? Outside of that he's injury prone and 34. He's still an incredible player and will get a good return but teams like the Raps or Pels have no reason to give up their young stars for him.

The Raptors kind of do because they can potentially win it next season. The Pelicans just paid Zion though and investing that much into him and KD would be risky business. They already have one of the best young cores in basketball, just need to be patient.

ZIon's deal has no player option like normal and has incentives for injuries like Embiid's max with Philly. Pels got 6 years of Zion locked in, no option, and protections. Great contract from our side. BI is also on a deal with no player option for 5 more years. CJ looking to sign an extension. Pels locked in.
