I heard on the radio that Miami is also gonna make a run at Danilo Gallinari. So yeah Miami is really trying to make Milwaukee sweat.
Edit. @ozwego15 mentioned it above.

Memphis's wing defense just took a big hit
Miami has agreed to trade Justise Winslow, Dion Waiters and James Johnson to Memphis for Andre Iguodala, Solomon Hill and Jae Crowder, league sources tell ESPN. No picks in the deal.

And there's the full deal. Memphis gets a chance to buy low on Winslow but the consequence is that their wing defense in the short term takes a bit hit and they eat a shedload of awful salary
Clippers are trading G Derrick Walton Jr., to the Atlanta Hawks for cash, league sources tell ESPN.

Clippers gearing up for something?
Yahoo Sources: Houston did its due diligence on Cleveland center Tristan Thompson, but are unable to get to his number to make a trade work. If Thompson makes it past deadline, a buyout is not an option.

As suspected, Houston was looking into Tristan Thompson but couldn't get it worked out
Golden State has agreed to trade D'Angelo Russell to Minnesota for a deal that includes Andrew Wiggins, a 2021 protected first-round pick and a 2022 second-round pick, league sources tell ESPN. Warriors will send Jacob Evans and Omari Spellman to Timberwolves too.

WOJ BOMB
Just from my initial reaction, that is a BAD trade for Golden State lol
Houston has traded Jordan Bell to Memphis for Bruno Caboclo, source tells ESPN. Teams exchange second-round picks too.

Because of how they acquired DLo, they essentially did a sign and trade of KD for Wiggins :hihi: and couldn't even get an unprotected pick out of it
Edit; I think it technically gets them under the tax? But if that was their reasoning it's bad reasoning for everyone but the owners lol
I could see it working on offense if they're very careful and Wiggins responds well to he new environment. But the defense is going to be rouuuuugh
If Kabengele is really on the move for Marcus Morris I'd love to swoop in and snag him. Knicks are already pretty invested in multiple frontcourt players
Why even compare him to Jah... he's a rookie. I know he's older for one, but he can potentially play next to both Jax and Zion longterm if his 3 pointer and defense continue to develop. I think he's worth a flier for 2nds/filler or Frank. Especially if they come from this draft. We need his archetype of player eventually.
Honestly Harkless wouldnt be bad either for Darius Miller and like a nothing pick.
Sure, but why be in a rush for it? If he was the absolute perfect candidate then I'd be all in, and it's not like I'd be mad about it, but I don't see any need to do it unless we see it as a clear upgrade in some way, and it's not. In the case of trading Frank for him, it'd be like moving the 12th man on the bench for someone who would be also the 12th man on the bench but taller.
Like I said, there's some mild attraction if you're picking him up for nothing, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get him. I also think that we're likely to retain Favors in the summer due to the shrinking of the market here at the deadline, so I wouldn't be that interested in adding another centre unless they were super high upside.
Knicks are finalizing a deal to send Marcus Morris to the Clippers for Moe Harkless and other assets, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. Sides still working on exact additional players/picks.

Don't really know how to think about this deal.
Morris is undoubtedly a better scorer than Harkless, but Harkless is a much superior defender and Morris' scoring primarily comes with the ball in his hands. Will he fit next to Kawhi and PG13, who are both big fans of the on-ball role? That's less of a concern with PG but for Kawhi it's a big thing, he's a much more on-ball threat than off.
Morris is a decent catch and shoot guy though, and if he can be acceptable defensively than it gives them a little more offensive juice and someone who can get a bucket without relying on Kawhi or PG.
Not a terrible move for NYC either, Harkless is kind of immaterial but they're in a rebuild so picking up another FRP in exchange for a guy they probably weren't interested in long term anyway in Morris is the right idea, imo. That's assuming they are getting that Clips 2020 FRP.
I think I might just be having difficulty accepting that the Knicks did something that makes sense for a rebuilding team to do.
Cleveland is finalizing a trade for Detroit's Andre Drummond, league source tells ESPN.

WOJ BOMB
Drummond moving from one of the worst organisations in the league to an even worse one!
