2017 NBA Trade Deadline Recap

The 2017 NBA trade deadline itself turned out to be a little underwhelming, with no big-name players moved in the last few minutes before 2:00pm CT, and teams like the Celtics, Cavaliers, Pacers, and Pistons standing pat. However, a couple notable players were on the move today, and a few interesting names – including one All-NBA center – were traded in the days leading up to February 23.

Here’s a recap of 2017’s deadline deals, starting with the moves completed today…

(Note: The Rockets’ acquisition of Lou Williams, which wasn’t made official until today, will be considered a February 23 trade. Additionally, not all the deals below have been officially finalized yet, so for now our recap is based on what has been reported.)
