A number of noteworthy players are garnering interest on the NBA trade market—and it’s only December!

Roughly 25 percent of the 2015-16 NBA regular season has been completed. Every team has played upwards of 20 games, which has thus offered general managers a large enough sample size to identify the holes in their respective rosters.
Thus, the rumor mill has begun to run wild.
A number of underutilized players are generating interest around the NBA. Many coaches and general managers feel that their environment is the one that would enable said athletes to live up to the potential they’re currently being impeded from reaching.
Other players have the opportunity to contribute, but have reason to be targeted in potential trade talks. An expiring contract and a versatile skill set generally adds up to teams testing the waters, and that’s been the case early in 2015-16.
The question is, which noteworthy players are currently on the trade market?
