Oklahoma City Thunder strongly interested in Arron Afflalo trade with Denver Nuggets.
On Monday news broke suggesting the Oklahoma City Thunder had interest in an Arron Afflalo trade. Of course, they were just one of many teams intrigued with the Denver Nuggets swingman who could very well be changing zip codes in the next few days before the NBA trade deadline passes.
Now there is more news linking Afflalo to OKC as according to Michael Scotto, the Thunder have ‘strong interest’ in trading for Arron Afflalo.
Sources: Thunder continue to target Nuggets guard Arron Afflalo as the trade deadline nears and have “strong interest” as one source said.

Could Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook have a new teammate in the near future? It certainly sounds possible, though what would the Denver Nuggets be asking for in return? It’s been stated previously that their demands for an Arron Afflalo trade were relatively high and given his interest around the NBA, it’s fair to ask for such.
Of course, getting such a return is a completely different subject. Might the Thunder offer up Reggie Jackson? You’d think they’d hold onto their point guard for a better return, but if there’s nothing out there perhaps Arron Afflalo could make sense.
