Before the NBA trade deadline, all teams are in a hurry, this is the last opportunity to strengthen this season, in just a few hours, it is also a number of deals, including Harden and Simmons swapping blockbuster deals, but also the unexpected Dinwiddie and Porzingis swap. The Lakers, who have been interested in multiple players before, have not gained much.
The Kings, Pistons, Bucks and Clippers make a four-way deal
The King sent Bagley, getting Josh Jackson, Lyles and DiVinzenzo;
The Pistons sent Josh Jackson, Lyles and 2 second-round picks, as well as some cash, to Get Bagley;
The Bucks sent Di Ventenzo, Hood and Ojele to Ibaka and two future second-round picks;
The Clippers sent Ibaka out and got Hood and Ojele.
The Spurs struck a 3-for-2 deal with the Raptors
The Spurs sent Thaddeus Young, Drew Ubanks, a 2022 second-round pick (from the Pistons), Dragic from the Raptors and a 2022 protection first-round pick (lotto protection). After the deal, the Raptors reduced their total salary to $3.75 million below the luxury tax threshold, and the Spurs hoarded nine first-round picks over the next seven years. In addition, the Spurs may discuss a buyout with Dragic, but this will not happen immediately.
The Spurs then struck a deal to send Derrick White away, with Josh Richardson, Longford, a protected 2022 first-round pick (protected with the top 4 picks) and a 2028 first-round pick swap.
The Sun completed 2 consecutive trades
The league's number one Suns are not idle, continuing to improve the lineup, using Jaylen Smith and a second-round pick in exchange for the Pacers' Craig, who played for the Suns last season.
The Suns then used Saric's injury exception and some cash to trade directly with Wizards guard Aaron Holliday.
The Wizards have changed dramatically
After sending Aaron Holliday away, Harrell was traded to the Hornets in exchange for Vernon Carey and Ismail Smith. And that wasn't all, a deal was then made with the Lone Rangers, sending Dinwiddie and Bertans to Porzingis and a second-round pick.
The Nets traded heavily with the 76ers
The most concerned is Harden, who eventually joined the 76ers as he wished, and the two sides reached a 2-for-5 deal. The Nets sent Harden and Millsap to get Simmons, Curry Jr., Drummond, as well as an unprotected 2022 first-round pick and a protected 2027 first-round pick from the 76ers.
The rocket sent Tess away
The last deal came from the Rockets, who were in the process of rebuilding and did not make any big moves, and Gordon and Wood, who had been rumored to be trading, also stayed in the lineup. In the final moments, veteran Theis was sent away in exchange for Schroeder and Fernando.
There was also a trade between Dozier and Pol Boll that were traded to magic.
Continuous transactions have occurred, but the Lakers have not made a single one, and it seems that it is really just an intentional team. In fact, from the perspective of their salary space, the operations that can be carried out are very limited, and at present, they are also focusing on the buyout market so that they can gain something, which will also be their last opportunity to reinforce.
