The 2023-24 NBA trade deadline is on Feb. 8 and FOX Sports is keeping you up to date with the latest rumors from around the league.

Pacers closing in on Siakam

The Toronto Raptors are engaged in trade talks with the Indiana Pacers over two-time All-Star Pascal Siakam, according to The Athletic. The Pacers’ package would include Bruce Brown, three first-round picks and other salaries to make the trade work, per The Athletic.

Siakam has 22.2 points, 6.3 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game in 39 starts for Toronto this season.

Lakers monitoring Murray

The Los Angeles Lakers are “very interested” in Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray, according to a report from Bleacher Report.

“Los Angeles has a first-round pick it can send to Atlanta in 2029 or 2030, along with a potential willingness to take on one or two of Capela, Hunter or Bogdanović,” the report said.

The Hawks have made Murray “widely available” in trade talks, according to Yahoo Sports. The New York Knicks, Brooklyn Nets and San Antonio Spurs also have interested in Murray, per Bleacher Report.

LaVine staying in Chicago?

The Chicago Bulls aren’t expected to move Zach LaVine before the trade deadline, according to Bleacher Report.

“Thus far, the buzz has been nearly silent,” the report said. “Outside of speculation that the Lakers will eventually make a play (perhaps if they miss out on Murray), most believe LaVine will stick around Chicago through the year or even longer.”

Yahoo Sports previously reported that the market for LaVine is “quiet” as a result of his contract. The Lakers, who have been linked to LaVine all season, are among the teams that are reportedly “reluctant” to take on LaVine’s contract.

Warriors cleaning house

The Golden State Warriors are expected to go into the deadline with everyone but Steph Curry “on the table,” according to The Athletic.

The Warriors, in particular, have been “increasingly open” to trading No. 1 overall pick Andrew Wiggins, according to Marc Stein. Wiggins, through 32 games this season, has averaged a career-low 11.9 points per game on 42.2% shooting from the field and 29.7% shooting from the field, which is also a career-low.

Wiggins signed a four-year, $109 million contract extension with the Warriors in 2022.

This story will be updated through the trade deadline on Feb. 8.
