NBA Trade Deadline Tracker 2023: Full details on every deal (Updating Live)
By Josh Hill
It’s finally here, the NBA Trade Deadline has arrived and with it a furious fury of trade chaos.
Fans love and hate the kind of deadline we’re seeing this year, where the league shifts significantly and superstar players move around in blockbuster deals. This year saw superstar players like Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and Russell Westbrook traded while teams like the Jazz continued to compile a war chest of future assets to make moves down the road.
Beyond the deadline, there’s the buyout market to keep an eye on. Some players who got moved at the deadline will not play a single minute for their new team and will instead negotiate a buyout in order to sign with a playoff contender. We see it every year, and this season there should be some prime veteran candidates looking to find potential championship landing spots.
Here’s a look at every deal that went down ahead of this year’s NBA Trade Deadline and everything you need to know.
