Team | Who They Get | Who They Traded | Analysis |
Houston Rockets | Robert Covington, Jordan Bell | Clint Capela, Nene, Gerald Green, 1st Round Pick | Covington will see a lot of starter minutes and a similar role to the one he had in Minnesota and P.J. Tucker will continue to play Center as the Rockets flipped Jordan Bell prior to the deadline. |
Atlanta Hawks | Clint Capela, Nene | Evan Turner, 1st Round Pick | Capela will be the third scoring option for the Hawks once he's at full health and he doesn't have a lot of competition for minutes. His role should be the same as it was in Houston. |
Minnesota Timberwolves | Malik Beasley, Juancho Hernangomez, Evan Turner, Jordan Vanderbilt, 1st Round Pick | Robert Covington, Jordan Bell, Shabazz Napier, Noah Vonleh | Juan Hernangomez will be able to find forward minutes as their were too many forwards in Denver. Expect his minutes to go up. Malik Beasley will compete for minutes vs. Josh Okogie. |
Denver Nuggets | Shabazz Napier, Gerald Green, Keita Bates-Diop, Noah Vonleh 1st Round Pick | Malik Beasley, Juancho Hernangomez. Jarred Vanderbilt | Monte Morris back up minutes are safe because Napier was traded again prior to the deadline. Green won't be back likely until the playoffs and Bates-Diop will have a tough time finding minutes. |
Minnesota Timberwolves | D'Angelo Russell, Omari Spellman, Jacob Evans | Andrew Wiggins, 1 1st Rd Draft Pick 1 2nd Rd Draft Pick | After seeing other PG's get traded, Russell will take full command of the Timberwolves offense and will serve as the team's second scoring option behind Karl-Anthony Towns. Spellman will back up Towns. |
Golden State Warriors | Andrew Wiggins, 1 1st Round Draft Pick, 1 2nd Round Draft Pick | D'Angelo Russell, Omari Spellman, Jacob Evans | Wiggins will be the Warriors prioritized scorer until Stephen Curry comes back in March. The Warriors have moved quite a few mid-court players and Wiggins will see no shortage of time with the ball. |
Miami Heat | Andre Iguodala, Jae Crowder, Solomon Hill | Justise Winslow, Dion Waiters, James Johnson | The arrival and contract extension for Iguodala could mean that Derrick Jones Jr. could see minutes taken away from him. Crowder being there will limit Duncan Robinson. |
Memphis Grizzlies | Justise Winslow, Dion Waiters, Gorgui Dieng | Andre Iguodala, Jae Crowder, Solomon Hill | Winslow has been battling Back issues for the last couple of months, but once he's active, he should be able to start. Dieng will battle Brandon Clarke and Jordan Bell for back up minutes. |
Minnesota Timberwolves | James Johnson | Gorgui Dieng | Johnson will be able to help run the point and that could put him on the floor more as he competes against Juancho Hernangomez for PT. Omari Spellman will likely back up Karl-Anthony Towns at Center. |
Sacramento Kings | Jabari Parker, Alex Len | Dewayne Dedmon, 2 2nd Rd Draft Picks | The last thing the Kings needed to add was another forward. Parker will be in a dogfight for minutes going up against Harrison Barnes. Once Len is healthy, he can see a few minutes. |
Atlanta Hawks | Dewayne Dedmon, 2 2nd Round Picks | Jabari Parker, Alex Len | We've come full circle as Dedmon returns to the Hawks and he will back up Clint Capela. Bruno Fernando and Damian Jones will likely see their minutes drop unless an injury occurs. |
Philadelphia 76ers | Alec Burks, Glenn Robinson III | 3 2nd Rd. Draft Picks | Burks and Robinson were brought in to hit three-pointers and play perimeter defense. Shake Milton, Trey Burke and Furkan Korkmaz will lose minutes. We'll have to see if Josh Richardson loses shots once he's healthy. |
Golden State Warriors | 3 2nd Round Picks | Alec Burks, Glenn Robinson III | The Warriors have a few openings in their mid-court and it looks like Jordan Poole and Damion Lee will be seeing more minutes. Eric Paschall should be able to steal a few minutes and shots as well. |
Houston Rockets | Bruno Caboclo, 1 2nd Rd. Draft Pick | Jordan Bell, 1 2nd Rd. Draft Pick | Caboclo could grab a few minutes in the Rockets rotation behind Robert Covington and P.J. Tucker once he is recovered from his Knee injury. He has never been given a true rotation commitment in the league. |
Memphis Grizzlies | Jordan Bell, 1 2nd Rd. Draft Pick | Bruno Caboclo, 1 2nd Rd. Draft Pick | It's a little surprising seeing the Rockets trade another big man considering they are planning on starting P.J. Tucker at Center. Bell will battle Brandon Clarke and James Johnson for back up minutes in Memphis. |
Atlanta Hawks | Skal Labissiere | Cash Considerations | Labissiere has been out of action with a Knee injury, but, once he's ready to return, he'll battle Dewayne Dedmon for back up minutes at Center. If John Collins needs a few minutes of rest, he can sub in at PF. |
Portland Trail Blazers | Cash Considerations | Skal Labissiere | Eventually, the Blazers will get Jusuf Nurkic and Zach Collins back in the lineup to help out Hassan Whiteside. They currently have Caleb Swanigan to provide relief in the post if needed. |
Atlanta Hawks | Derrick Walton Jr. | Cash Considerations | Walton won't be an impactful fantasy option unless multiple Guards get hurt. He's sitting behind Trae Young and Jeff Teague, and other combo-guards and will be hard for him to steal minutes. |
Los Angeles Clippers | Cash Considerations | Derrick Walton Jr. | The Clippers have a lot of guards already. A lot of players bring up the ball and Walton wasn't even logging 10 minutes per game with the Clippers. |
Cleveland Cavaliers | Andre Drummond | Brandon Knight, John Henson, 1 2nd Rd. Pick | We'll have to see what this trade means for Tristan Thompson. He could get bought out in the next few days. Drummond will be starting and Larry Nance Jr's minutes are safe once Thompson is out of the way. |
Detroit Pistons | Brandon Knight, John Henson, 1 2nd Rd. Pick | Andre Drummond | The departure of Drummond means that Thon Maker, Christian Wood and newly-acquired John Henson will have to fill the huge void the Pistons have at Center. Knight will get limited minutes. |
Los Angeles Clippers | Marcus Morris, Isaiah Thomas | Maurice Harkless, Jerome Robinson, 1 1st Rd. Pick | The Clippers solidify their frontcourt by getting Morris and he'll be especially beneficial on night's that Kawhi Leonard sits. His scoring will drop a bit, but he'll log a lot of minutes. Thomas will be battling for minutes. |
New York Knicks | Maurice Harkless, 1 1st Rd. Pick, Draft rights to Issuf Sanon | Marcus Morris | With Morris off the team, Harkless should see at least 25 minutes per game in the Knicks rotation and he'll serve as a bailout scorer from the arc. All of the Knicks offensive weapons benefit from Morris being gone. |
Washington Wizards | Jerome Robinson | Isaiah Thomas, Draft Rights to Issuf Sanon | Shabazz Napier and Ish Smith will split minutes at PG to start with Thomas off the team. Robinson will back up Bradley Beal and we'll have to see if he grab 15 minutes per game in the Wizards rotation. |
Washington Wizards | Shabazz Napier | Jordan McRae | Napier will battle Ish Smith for the starting job and he should be able to take it over once he's fully comfortable in the Wizards offense. Troy Brown Jr. should see more shots for the rest of the way with McRae gone. |
Denver Nuggets | Jordan McRae | Shabazz Napier | McRae is now part of one of the deepest teams in the league and it will be very hard for him to get minutes. He'll be filling the Malik Beasley role for the team and it will be a constant battle to get any time in the rotation. |
Orlando Magic | James Ennis | 1 2nd Rd. Pick | With Jonathan Isaac still out, the Magic could use a bit of help defensively off the bench and Ennis could find himself being a bigger part of the Magic's rotation in he can shut down the perimeter a little bit. |
Philadelphia 76ers | 1 2nd Rd. Pick | James Ennis | The 76ers needed to get players off of their roster in order to be able to fit Glenn Robinson III and Alec Burks. Ennis was getting 15 minutes per game in the Sixers rotation. |
