The post shared by Shaq suggested a very unconventional trade suggestion made by the Instagram page, Basketball Forever. The trade proposal included three teams namely, the Los Angeles Lakers, the Golden State Warriors, and the Brooklyn Nets. The Lakers would receive Kevin Durant and Ben Simmons from the Nets, and Draymond Green from the Warriors.
