As the 2025 NBA offseason approaches, front offices often present the illusion of an untouchable roster. However, the reality is that most teams would part with nearly any player for the right offer. This analysis identifies the most off-limits player for each team in what could be a dynamic summer filled with trades. Following recent surprising transactions, including Luka Dončić's unexpected trade, it is increasingly clear that no player is entirely secure. Nevertheless, some players are seen as more difficult to acquire than others.

For the Atlanta Hawks, while All-Rookie first-team member and former No. 1 overall pick Zaccharie Risacher and Most Improved Player Dyson Daniels represent valuable, youthful assets, it is acknowledged that they would be included in a trade for a generational talent like Giannis Antetokounmpo. This notion reflects a broader truth: most teams are open to trades if the price is right, although it would take a significant proposal to pry Risacher from the Hawks.

The Boston Celtics' situation is more complicated as they navigate a potentially staggering $500 million payroll. Notable players, including Jrue Holiday, Kristaps Porzingis, Derrick White, and even Jaylen Brown, may be considered for trade to alleviate financial burdens. However, Jayson Tatum remains firmly off the table, as the organization aims to reconfigure its roster ahead of Tatum's anticipated return from injury. If Tatum were to be made available, other teams would likely present substantial offers, considering the financial implications of his contract.
