The NBA trade deadline has come and gone.
While a few smaller trades still will be reported as paperwork clears the league office, the run of blockbusters and headline-grabbing surprise deals are over.
The Cavaliers, who are leading the Eastern Conference, picked up guard De’Andre Hunter from the Hawks on Thursday to pad their backcourt as they hope for a dominant playoff run.
And the Sixers, mired in another disappointing season with Joel Embiid suffering a rash of injuries and Paul George having a subpar year, added guard Jared Butler from the Wizards.
Late Wednesday, the trading block heated up again with Golden State getting Jimmy Butler from Miami, Toronto dealing for Brandon Ingram and the Los Angeles Lakers picking up Mark Williams. That was on the heels of a wild weekend that saw the biggest trade in NBA history – a shocking development that had 2024 NBA finalist Dallas sending Luka Doncic packing for L.A.
The trades that have happened since the start of the 2024-25 NBA season:
