Shocking Napheesa Collier Trade Rumor Emerges

The Athletic reports the Lynx may trade Napheesa Collier due to her expiring contract and Olivia Miles' emergence. This would be a seismic shift for the championship favorites. A pro/con analysis has been published. A new article (July 29) analyzes four potential trade destinations (including specific teams). A new mock trade (July 30) proposes sending Collier to the Sparks for Hamby and Brink. Another trade deadline article (July 30) addresses a fan's question, suggesting promoting Hamzova and trying Coffey at the 3. The trade deadline is approaching, and the team is 'open for business'. Despite the rumor, the team continues winning, adding complexity. Collier's seamless reintegration and the 8-game streak make the decision even more difficult.
