You want a recap of 16 trades?! Fine, but it'll cost you five second-round picks 😂 Starting with the giant blockbuster that kicked things off & finishing with the trades coming in just before the deadline, johnhollinger breaks down a wild few days ⤵️

San Antonio still gets another bite at the apple here, but using that fruit could make for some stale strudel. As the last team left with functional cap space, the Spurs can use their $25 million in room to make deals before July 1. However, in most cases, it’s an irrelevant distinction, as the Spurs would have massive cap room in 2023-24 regardless, and any player traded to them before July 1 would have 2023-24 money due to them.

The Nuggets gave up three seconds and parted with Hyland just to acquire Bryant, a talented offensive player who plays extremely hard, but one whose vulnerability at the defensive end makes it difficult to keep him on the court in a playoff game. He’s an upgrade over what they had, and as with Boston above, maybe this was just the best they could do. It felt like a heavy price to pay for a marginal improvement at center, and they’re a guard short now, but we won’t know for sure until May.
