The New York Knicks have interest in trading for several point guards including Brandon Jennings.

Jennings recently returned to the lineup after rupturing his left Achilles tendon nearly 11 months ago.

Jennings has an expiring contract.

The Detroit Pistons traded for Reggie Jackson and re-signed him to a five-year, $80 million deal after Jennings was injured.

The Milwaukee Bucks have decided not to trade for Caron Butler.

Butler has been promised a new team by the Sacramento Kings.

Butler was previously with the Bucks and is a native of Wisconsin.

The Philadelphia 76ers have agreed to acquire Ish Smith from the New Orleans Pelicans for two future second round picks.

Smith was previously with the 76ers and he will help the team at the point guard position.

The 76ers will release Tony Wroten to make room for Smith.

The Phoenix Suns have suspended Markieff Morris for two games for throwing a towel at Jeff Hornacek.

The incident occurred during Wednesday's loss to the Denver Nuggets.

Morris said he didn't intend to hit Hornacek and was unaware it had connected.

Morris has sought a trade from the Suns since they traded his brother, Marcus Morris, to the Detroit Pistons.

Morris initially had trade value but waiting has cost the Suns any leverage they once had.

The Houston Rockets have attempted to accommodate Ty Lawson with a trade but the market for him as been minimal so far.

The Rockets traded for Lawson in the offseason after several legal issues.

As part of the trade with the Denver Nuggets, Lawson agreed to make his $13.2 million salary for 16-17 fully non-guaranteed.

"The only team that makes sense already has [Rajon] Rondo," an Eastern Conference executive said in reference to the Sacramento Kings. "There's no market."

Lawson previously played for George Karl with the Nuggets.

The Chicago Bulls are reportedly willing to trade Joakim Noah or Taj Gibson for a wing.

The Bulls have been without Mike Dunleavy Jr. all season, while Jimmy Butler has struggled somewhat under Fred Hoiberg.

"Executives around the league, and people have told me, that the Bulls are very determined to add a talented wing player," said Wojnarowski during his podcast. "And I’ve been told that the Bulls are open to…whether it’s Joakim Noah, Taj Gibson…maybe not both of them, but either of them if there’s a deal out there that they can bring in the best possible wing player available, they’re open to it… They need more shooting."

The Boston Celtics have made David Lee available in trade talks.

Lee has an expiring contract and the Celtics have tremendous depth making playing time for him sparse.

The Celtics acquired Lee from the Golden State Warriors in the offseason.

The Detroit Pistons are unlikely to make a significant trade before the deadline unless there is a "clear step up in terms of talent."

Brandon Jennings is nearing a full return and Jodie Meeks is expected back in February.

"Because we like our group," Stan Van Gundy said. "I like the chemistry and character of our group. We won't make lateral moves or marginal moves because continuity is important."

Van Gundy says there's less chatter than in previous seasons.

The Houston Rockets and Phoenix Suns have seriously discussed a trade of Corey Brewer and Terrence Jones for Markieff Morris.

Morris has been seeking a trade from the Suns since the offseason.

But Brewer cannot be traded until January 15th because teams over the cap can't trade players that were signed in the offseason until that date. Players who were acquired or re-signed in the offseason on teams not over the cap can be traded beginning on December 15th.

The complete array of Jan. 15ers follows:

Boston: Jae Crowder

Brooklyn: Brook Lopez

Chicago: Jimmy Butler and Mike Dunleavy

Cleveland: Kevin Love and Iman Shumpert

Detroit: Reggie Jackson

Golden State: Draymond Green

Houston: Patrick Beverley and Brewer

Indiana: Lavoy Allen

Los Angeles Clippers: DeAndre Jordan and Austin Rivers

Memphis: Marc Gasol

Miami: Goran Dragic and Dwyane Wade

Milwaukee: Khris Middleton

New Orleans: Alexis Ajinca and Norris Cole

Oklahoma City: Enes Kanter and Kyle Singler

Orlando: Tobias Harris

Phoenix: Brandon Knight

San Antonio: Danny Green and Kawhi Leonard

Washington: Drew Gooden

The New York Knicks have interest in trading for a young scoring guard or a shooter to improve their backcourt.

But the Knicks don't want to make that type of move while impacting their cap flexibility.

The Knicks are projected to have close to $20 million to spend in free agency this offseason.

According to reports, Jamal Crawford, Kevin Martin and Brandon Jennings, among others, might be available via trade.
