Unlike many of Oklahoma City's other high earners, Danilo Gallinari will hit free agency in the summer. Since joining the Thunder as part of the trade that sent Paul George to the LA Clippers, the Italian has excelled - and Kevin O'Connor of The Ringer is reporting that Gallinari is attracting plenty of interest ahead of the trade deadline:

Danilo Gallinari stands out as an option. Multiple playoff teams have expressed interest in the Thunder forward, including the Mavericks and Sixers, according to league sources. Dallas may not have enough assets to acquire Gallinari if OKC decides to trade him, but he’s a dynamic player whom the team should pursue.

Gallinari enjoyed a career-season during his final campaign with the Clippers, and the veteran has continued his form with the Thunder. Over 42 appearances, the 31-year-old has averaged 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 2.3 assists. He is also shooting 41 percent from beyond the arc.
