Which five teams make the most sense for Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Reggie Jackson if they do end up trading him?
Reggie Jackson is one of the most talented young point guards in the NBA, but the Oklahoma City Thunder likely won’t be able to re-sign him at the price that he wants. That has led them to begin listening to trade offers for him, and there is a possibility that Jackson will end up getting moved before tomorrow’s trade deadline.
That being said, there are plenty of teams that are already showing interest in acquiring him.
All four of those teams would be very nice fits for him, but there are other teams that could use point guards around the league as well.

Jackson has averaged 12.8 points, 4.2 assists, and 4.0 rebounds per game so far this season. He has shot 43.2 percent from the field overall and 27.8 percent from behind the three-point arc. Those numbers aren’t bad at all, but he still has some work to do on his game before he reaches the full “star potential” that he possesses.
At 24 years old, Jackson has already gained quite a bit of experience from playing with the Thunder. He would see a major increase of his numbers with a trade to any team that gives him a starting job, and he has shown in the past that he is more than capable of being a starting NBA point guard.
