NBA Seasonal Trade Tracker: Kristaps Porzingis headed to Atlanta


Although the 2024-25 season did not officially end until Oklahoma City took care of Indiana in the 7th of the NBA finals on Sunday night, the news cycle has already happened in the 2025-26 season. Houston acquired Kevin during From the time before game 7, and there have been three more offers in the two days since the NBA finals concluded.

New Orleans acquires: Jordan Poole, Saddiq Bey, 40th General Selection of 2025 NBA Draft

Washington acquires: CJ McCollum, Kelly Olynyk, future second round selection

The Pelicans executive, in the first year, Joe Dumars, was his first significant transaction Tuesday, sending McCollum, Olynyk and the 40th Global Choice in Washington. While CJ enters the final season of his current contract, Poole is two years old and almost $ 66 million in his agreement. With Deajouunte Murray he was still recovering from a broken Achilles tendon he suffered in January, Poole should not have opportunities to play ball in New Orleans. His second season in Washington was better than his first, and Hope in New Orleans is that Poole can take this progress next season. Bey’s acquisition may not much affect fantasy basketball, as he left an ACL torn that he left him aside throughout the 2024-25 season.

The addition of McCollum provides the magicians another “adult in the room” next to Marcus Smart and Khris Middleton. All three have struggled with injuries in recent years, without having hit the 60 games played in the mark by 2024-25. McCollum can provide reliable average round round in standard leagues. That said, veterans are no risk of reconstructing situations, as some teams are too willing to throw the cap and “tank”. Olynyk’s path to fantasy relevance is not as simple as McCollum’s, but experienced directors have seen him make waves, especially at the end of the year when they play teams.

Atlanta acquires: Kristaps Porzingis

Boston acquires: Georges Niang, future second round selection

Brooklyn acquires: TERANCE MANN, 22nd Global Selection at 2025 NBA Draft

Less than 24 hours after the holiday negotiation, the Celtics meant saying goodbye to Porzingis as part of a three-team trade. Since he enters the final season of his contract, KP’s departure is not surprising. Going to Atlanta offers a little intrigue, as a alignment of Tree Young, Dyson Daniels, Jalen Johnson, Porzingis and Onyeka Okongwu would have the length and defensive capacity needed to compensate Young’s shortcomings at the end of the flat. However, Porzingis has played 60 games or more once since he started his ACL during the 2017-18 season. Add the disease that limited its effectiveness in this section this season and fantasy managers will have to be cautious. In addition, the Hawks still have a commercial exception of $ 25 million due to Deajounte Murray’s trade, so they could be extremely active this summer.

The Celtics add a solid veteran to Niang, who grew up in the Boston area and played his high school basketball at New Hampshire Tilton School. While its fantasy impact has been limited for most of his career, “The Minivan” can have more consistent opportunities in Boston next season, especially if Stevens does not move. The shops in Porzingis and Holiday have won the Celtics below the second apron.

As for Brooklyn, adding another choice to its first round to its coffers is the one that causes a significant intrigue. The Net now have five elections in the first round in the Wednesday project, which probably means that the main executive Sean Marks has not done movements. The draft can “start” with Philadelphia in the third election, but the networks keep cards that will significantly affect the way things play in Barclays Center. Add Mann gives Brooklyn a versatile wing, but it does not yet have to go out as a reliable fantasy option. Whether or not the changes with the networks depend on what the team moves this summer.

Portland acquires: JRUE HOLiday

Boston acquires: Anfernee Simons, two selections of the second round

After losing Jayson Tatum to a Achilles tendon broken during the second round of the playoffs and the franchise that faces a strong luxury tax bill, the Celtics have begun to break things. At this point, it is unknown to what extent it is unknown, the main executive, but has exchanged two players of key rotation in the two days since the conclusion of the season. On Monday evening, it was a vacation who was moving, with Boston sending him to Portland. Interestingly, Trail Blazers acquired it from Milwaukee as part of Damian Lillard’s trade a few years ago, finally moving the veteran guard to Boston.

Unlike two years ago, Holiday adaptation with Portland is better now, especially after the improvement of the team during the second half of the season. According to reports, the plan is to retain vacation, as it can provide a constant defense and leadership to the young group. For Portland, trade also releases more opportunities for Scoot Henderson and Shaedon Sharpe, even with Holiday, which is expected to occupy a place in the beginning line. It’s time for Portland to really learn what henderson and Sharpe has, and if these two can be key gears in a rotation with playoff ambitions.

Boston’s decision to market the holidays saves the franchise in the short term and there is the potential to save more next summer. Simons, a perimeter scorer more than capable of covering a need in Boston with Tatum Out, goes to the final season of his current contract. Celtics can sign it at an extension this summer, but they can also wait until 2026, in case things do not work. With Boston who made another significant measure on Tuesday, Simons should have a solid fantasy roof next season. Operations also increase the value of Payton Pritchard, as he reaches the best season of his NBA career.
