The trade deadline is a couple of hours away and we’re already watching big moves taking place around the league. Several teams are trying to bolster their ranks and four squads have made some interesting moves to face the remainder of the season.
The Sacramento Kings already moved Tyrese Haliburton to the Indiana Pacers and now are parting ways with another young player. The Los Angeles Clippers already dealt a veteran in Eric Bledsoe and now added another one. The Milwaukee Bucks parted with a player that was very important to them.
According to reports, the Kings, Clippers, Bucks and Pistons are involved in a 4-team trade.

This is a wild move, but one that could benefit all of these teams. Bagley needed a change of air after struggling to make an impact on Sacramento, DiVincenzo has proven his worth in the league and Ibaka is a solid veteran that can help the Bucks.
The day started very quietly, as many people waited for an announcement on James Harden. Meanwhile, these four teams worked to get a deal done and it’s a big one. Who will win the trade? Time will tell.
