In a recent article by NBA senior writer Marc Stein, he updated fans on which teams are interested in trading for the 2026 Second Team All-NBA star .
"I will say this much … There is a belief in some corners of the league that Atlanta , Houston , and Portland all have legitimate trade interest in Brown. Which is something to file away if you're looking for participants that might be interested in joining an eventual multi-team Antetokounmpo trade construction."
Stein brings up Antetokounmpo because a potential Brown trade could involve Giannis. The Celtics have been rumored to be interested in Giannis , and these two teams, plus the Hawks , Rockets, and Trail Blazers , could work something out for a potential three-team trade. We are months away from anything like this happening, but it is nice to hear that there are teams looking to acquire a superstar talent.
The Hawks and Rockets being interested in Brown is no surprise. Atlanta is where Brown grew up, and he has always had family come to his games when in Atlanta. Former Celtics head coach Ime Udoka is now in Houston, and he could reunite with his former coach, who led him to an NBA Finals appearance.
