5 Potential NBA Trade Deadline Moves
Knicks Send Porzingis to the Mavericks
Jan 31 |
|
DALLAS ACQUIRES Kristaps Porzingis ($5,697,054) Courtney Lee ($12,253,780) Tim Hardaway Jr. ($19,200,127) Trey Burke ($1,795,015) |
NEW YORK ACQUIRES Dennis Smith Jr. ($3,819,960) Wesley Matthews ($18,622,513) DeAndre Jordan ($22,897,200) 2021 1st round pick 2023 1st round pick (top-10 protected) |
Kristaps Porzingis (PF, 23): Holds a $4.4M restricted qualifying offer for 2019-20. He's eligible for a maximum 5 year, $158M extension, but early signs point to a "prove it" year in Dallas before the 23-year-old gets locked in.
Courtney Lee (SG, 33): The 33-year-old carries a $12.75M salary for 2019-20, and has seen limited action thus far in 2018. This was a successful salary dump for the Knicks.
Tim Hardaway Jr. (SG, 26): Will actually be a nice piece to complement Luka Doncic & Porzingis. Hardaway has an $18.1M salary in 2019, then an $18.9M player option in 2020. The 26-year-old should be a factor in Dallas.
Trey Burke (PG, 26): Was a late addition to this trade, and will head to free agency after the year.
Dennis Smith Jr. (PG 21): Holds a $4.4M salary in 2019-20, then a $5.6M team option in 2020-21, & his restricted offer of $7.7M in 2021-2022. The 21-year-old has a chance to be a key piece going forward.
Wesley Matthews (SG, 32): Brings over an expiring contract and will likely test free agency after the year.
DeAndre Jordan (C, 30): Brings over an expiring contract and will likely hit the open market, though a small extension is possible.
The Knicks actually wind up adding $8.26M of tax cap to 2018-19 in this deal, but clear $30.9M of 2019-20 tax space, which should prove very useful this July.
Portland Acquires Rodney Hood from the Cavs
Feb 4 |
|
CLEVELAND ACQUIRES Nik Stauskas ($1,512,601) Wade Baldwin ($1,544,951) 2021 2nd round pick 2023 2nd round pick |
PORTLAND ACQUIRES Rodney Hood ($3,472,887) |
Rodney Hood (SG, 26): Hood holds an expiring contract on his $3.4M qualifying offer and is a solid rental piece for Portland's playoff run.
Nik Stauskas (SG, 25): Brings over a near minimum $1.6M salary on an expiring contract. He'll hit the open market in July.
Wade Baldwin (PG, 22): The former Grizzlies first round pick is on a near minimum expiring contract and will hit the open market in July.
The Cavaliers clear around $415,000 of 2018-19 tax cap with this deal, picking up a few solid draft picks along the way. There are no future financial ramifications.
Bucks Acquire Stanley Johnson from the Pistons
Feb 6 |
|
DETROIT ACQUIRES Thon Maker ($2,799,720) |
MILWAUKEE ACQUIRES Stanley Johnson ($3,940,402) |
Stanley Johnson (SF, 22): The #8 overall selection back in 2015 has underachieved in his short time in Detroit, but will join a strong, young core in Milwaukee. He holds a $4.4M qualifying offer in 2019-20 as a restricted free agent.
Thon Maker (C, 21): Wanted out of Milwaukee as his playing time was dipping mightily. He can play inside and out when right, and should get a chance at more minutes in Detroit. He carries a $3.5M salary in 2019-20, then a $4.8M restricted offer in 2020-21.
Bucks add $1.14M of 2018-19 tax cap, clearing $3.5M in 2019-20.
Lakers Acquire Reggie Bullock from the Pistons
Feb 6 |
|
DETROIT ACQUIRES Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk ($1,487,694) 2021 2nd round pick |
LOS ANGELES ACQUIRES Reggie Bullock ($2,500,000) |
Reggie Bullock (SG, 27): Has had a strong year in Detroit (12 PPG, 3 RB, 2.5 Ast) and will be a depth rental piece, with a potentially larger role should the Lakers ship out their kids. He's on an expiring contract.
Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk (SG, 21): Was a non-factor in LA, and probably won't be much more in Detroit. He holds a non-guaranteed $1.4M salary in 2019-20, then a few club options thereafter.
Lakers add $1.01M of 2018-19 tax cap, clearing $1.4M in 2019-20.
76ers Acquire Tobias Harris from the Clippers
Feb 6 |
|
LOS ANGELES ACQUIRES 2023 2nd round pick 2021 2nd round pick 2021 1st round pick ((MIA unprotected 1st)) 2020 1st round pick Mike Muscala ($5,000,000) Wilson Chandler ($12,800,562) Landry Shamet ($1,703,640) |
PHILADELPHIA ACQUIRES Mike Scott ($4,320,500) Boban Marjanovic ($7,000,000) Tobias Harris ($14,800,000) |
Tobias Harris (SF, 26): Brings over an expiring contract as a very solid rental piece for the postseason, plus bird rights with the ability to be extended thereafter. This was a big get for Philly.
Boban Marjanovic (C, 30): Carries an expiring contract as a salary dump and likely won't be a factor in PHI.
Mike Scott (PF, 30): Brings over an expiring contract as a salary dump and likely won't be a factor in PHI.
Mike Muscala (PF, 27): Adds a decent rental depth piece on an expiring contract and will hit the open market after the year.
Wilson Chandler (SF, 31): Wasn't getting many looks in Philly, but should fill-in nicely in LA once he returns from a quad injury. He's on an expiring contract.
Landry Shamet (PG, 21): A late first round pick this past draft, Shamet was one of the better bench players in Philly, and will have a chance to breakout a bit in LA. He holds a $1.9M salary in 2019-20, then 3 straight club options.
The Sixers added $6.6M of 2018-19 tax cap in this deal, clearing just $1.9M of 2019-20 space going forward.
Suns Acquire Johnson, Ellington from the Heat
Feb 6 |
|
MIAMI ACQUIRES Ryan Anderson ($20,421,546) |
PHOENIX ACQUIRES Tyler Johnson ($19,245,370) Wayne Ellington ($6,270,000) |
Tyler Johnson (SG, 25): Holds a $19.2M player option next year that's likely to opt-in to. He's been a double digit scorer in Miami.
Wayne Ellington (SG, 31): Holds an expiring contract and will likely be bought out to afford him a chance to join a contending team.
Ryan Anderson (PF, 30): $15.6M of his 2019-20 salary is fully guaranteed, though he's a waive candidate.
The Heat clear $5.09M of 2018-19 tax space (but still remain over the threshold), while also adding $2M of 2019-20 cap.
Bulls Take Otto Porter Jr.'s Max from the Wizards
Feb 6 2019 |

WASHINGTON ACQUIRES Bobby Portis ($2,494,346) Jabari Parker ($20,000,000) 2023 2nd round pick |
Otto Porter Jr. (SF, 25): Brings over salaries of $27.25M next year, and a $28.4M player option in 2020-21. He's overpaid, but should have more room to produce in Chicago.
Bobby Portis (PF, 23): Holds a $3.6M restricted offer for 2019-20 and is averaging 14 points & 7 rebounds per game. He holds a $7.5M cap hold next year until a new deal is put in place (somewhere).
Jabari Parker (PF, 23): Is averaging 14 points, 6 boards & 2 assists this year, and holds a $20M club option for 2019-20. The option must be exercised by June 29th.
Washington clears $3.5M of 2018-19 tax cap, while shedding Porter's $27.25M next season.

Marquese Chriss (PF, 21): The #8 overall pick in 2016 had his option for 2019 declined, setting him up for free agency after this year.
The Rockets clear $3.8M of 2018-19 tax space with this move, and another $15.6M for 2019-20. The Kings add $250,000 to this year's cap, while the Cavs added $3.5M in 2018-19, $15.6M in 2019-20.

Markieff Morris (PF, 29): Brings double digit production to the Pelicans who might need to fill a big-man role sooner than later. He's on an expiring contract.
Wesley Johnson (SF, 31): Has had better days on the court, and will be a bench body in Washington through the remainder of the 2018-19 season.
