Josh Hart got traded literally minutes before tipoff tonight in Portland and the KD news dropped right when Donte DiVincenzo was finishing his postgame press conference.
What a night. Still wrapping my head around this one – 3:10 AM
Aaron J. Fentress @AaronJFentress
We shall see what happens tomorrow.
But…
Suns get Durant
Dallas gets Kyrie
Lakers get Russell, Vanderbilt, Rui and Beasley.
Blazers get Cam Reddish.
Sounds about right. – 2:54 AM
Sean Highkin @highkin
The Blazers’ night started with Josh Hart being pulled off the floor 10 minutes before tip and being traded to the Knicks. It ended with a much-needed win over the Warriors.

“You have to trust the process and that we’re positioning ourselves to be able to do something that really helps us.” – Damian Lillard on the trade that sent Josh Hart to the NY Knicks for Cam Reddish and a lottery-protected first-round pick. #RipCity pic.twitter.com/VqK5scaFT62:00 AM

Mikal Bridges, Josh Hart and Jalen Brunson can all hang out in NYC now… – 1:37 AM

The best 1st Rd Pick to trade away as a franchise if you’re trying to keep the maximum # of 1sts available for future trades is the upcoming draft pick & then have it turn into a 2nd if not conveyed.
This is what NYK did today in their trade for Josh Hart. – 12:08 AM

Running file of trade grades is now updated with the deal sending Josh Hart to the Knicks: es.pn/3XlOos0 (ESPN+) – 11:39 PM

HART/REDDISH TRADE BREAKDOWN:
NYK: Josh Hart
POR: Reddish, Mykhailiuk, Arcidiacono*, ’23 1st (top-14 protected that turns into 4 2nds if not conveyed)
POR creates a $7M TPE
*Arcidiacono must approve trade – 11:22 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
The protected first-rounder the Knicks are sending to Portland in the Josh Hart trade is their 2023 one, league sources said. It’s lottery protected in 2023 and turns into four second-rounders if it doesn’t convey this year. @wojespn first with the pick/protection details. – 11:14 PM
Stefan Bondy @SBondyNYDN
As Jalen Brunson was getting his jersey retired at his alma mater, the Knicks negotiated a trade for his former Wildcats teammate, Josh Hart, by sending Cam Reddish and a first-round pick to the Blazers.

In February, Josh Hart and Larry Nance Jr. swapped houses after they were traded to the opposite teams.
Larry just tweeted this after Hart was traded to the Knicks 😂 pic.twitter.com/A0ZABq9JWE10:45 PM

Ian Begley @IanBegley
To make money work in Josh Hart deal, Knicks are sending Ryan Arcidiacono and Svi Mykhailiuk to POR. NYK was just short of threshold for deal so needed to include Arcidiacono, per source. ESPN first on players. – 10:43 PM
Yossi Gozlan @YossiGozlan
New York Knicks are $4.4M below the luxury tax after acquiring Josh Hart, but are effectively $2.5M below with Julius Randle earning his All-Star bonus & Isaiah Hartenstein on track to earn some bonuses as well.
Factor in their playoff bonuses and Knicks are just $971,090 below. – 10:41 PM

Marc Berman @NYPost_Berman
Josh Hart trade is all Thibs. Removes a player he never liked in Cam Reddish for one he long coveted. – 10:36 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
If my off-the-cuff math is correct — Josh Hart for Cam Reddish, Svi Mykhailiuk and Ryan Arcidiacono means the Knicks will be operating as if they are approximately $1.2M short of the luxury tax. – 10:31 PM

Jalen Brunson’s reaction to finding out his former college teammate, Josh Hart, is reportedly headed to the Knicks is great 🙌

NBA source confirms that Trail Blazers have traded Josh Hart to the New York Knicks for Cam Reddish
First reported by @Adrian Wojnarowski

Yossi Gozlan @YossiGozlan
The Portland Trail Blazers gain a lot of breathing room under the luxury tax for 2023-24 by offloading Josh Hart and get some value for him.
They now have more flexibility to extend Jerami Grant to his maximum four year, $112.7M extension or re-sign him for more this offseason. – 10:26 PM
Ian Begley @IanBegley
Knicks and Blazers Josh Hart/Cam Reddish deal had also been discussed as potential 3-team trade, per sources. – 10:24 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
Svi Mykhailiuk is headed to Portland in the Josh Hart deal, league sources tell @TheAthletic. – 10:20 PM
Tas Melas @TasMelas
Are Josh Hart and Cam Reddish trading houses like Hart and Nance did last year? – 10:18 PM
Sam Vecenie @Sam_Vecenie
At least in this Knicks deal involving Reddish, they identified a player that Tom Thibodeau will play. Hart’s activity and energy levels will help Knicks bench units. Think he’s a really good player. Not sure I think they needed him so much to give up a 1st, but he’ll help – 10:15 PM
Steve Popper @StevePopper
Interesting part of this Hart-Reddish deal is it adds a player who certainly figures to be in the rotation — and if it’s nine, that means someone is out. – 10:14 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
Reddish-for-Hart does not work salary-wise, for what it’s worth. Knicks would have to be sending out more money in a trade than that. – 10:13 PM
Alan Hahn @alanhahn
Josh Hart was a name I had on my list of potential targets and it’s great the #Knicks FO got this done. Terrific addition who should fit seamlessly. Will make for interesting decisions with the lineup of course. Turned a non-entity into a quality vet/starter/rotation player. – 10:13 PM
Ian Begley @IanBegley
Sources said Knicks had also been in touch with Detroit this evening on possible Cam Reddish deal prior to agreement with Portland on Josh Hart trade. – 10:13 PM

One thing worth noting: Tom Thibodeau is a big Josh Hart guy. – 10:02 PM
Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS
Josh Hart is exactly the sort of guy Madison Square Garden falls in love with. If the shot is falling he’s gonna be a fan favorite by like Saturday. – 10:02 PM

The Trail Blazers are trading Josh Hart to the Knicks, sources tell ESPN. – 9:58 PM
Sean Highkin @highkin
Josh Hart appears to have left the court with a few minutes to go before tip. Was dapping/hugging teammates. – 9:54 PM
Steve Popper @StevePopper
Knicks must be careful who they’re dealing with at deadline
The most likely scenario remained finding a taker for Cam Reddish. newsday.com/sports/basketb…8:09 PM
Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
5 trades I predicted on pod last night:
1. OG/Thad to SAC for Barnes/Mitchell/two 1sts
2. Simmons to SA for Doug/J-Rich/1st
3. Russ/two 1sts to UTA for Conley/Beasley/Vando
4. Wiseman/Moody to CHA for PJ/Martin/Jalen McD
5. Bones to NYK for Reddish/pick

Was great to suit up and witness greatness up close. Congrats brother @LeBron James an amazing accomplishment 👑 – 2:34 PM

From yesterday, looking at the Knicks options ahead of the trade deadline, with reporting on Cam Reddish, skepticism around league that Masai Ujiri wants a full rebuild, and teams registering interest in Kelly Olynyk nydailynews.com/sports/basketb…11:42 AM
Michael Scotto @MikeAScotto
Sources: The Knicks have expressed interest in Blazers guard Josh Hart.
Plus, Suns updates on Chris Paul, Deandre Ayton and Cam Johnson’s free agency, and trade talks surrounding Jakob Poeltl, Matisse Thybulle, Nuggets and Timberwolves on @Jorge Sierra. hoopshype.com/lists/nba-rumo…11:08 AM

Some Knicks/Nets notes on Malik Beasley, Jarred Vanderbilt, Nic Claxton, OG Anunoby, Cam Reddish as we get closer to the trade deadline: sny.tv/articles/knick…10:43 AM

More on this storyline

Ian Begley: Josh Hart has a $12.9M player option for 2023-24. Deadline for option is 6/25. Ryan Arcidiacano has to consent to the deal for it to go through, as @Bobby Marks notes. Arcidiacono did indeed consent to the trade, per source. -via Twitter @IanBegley / February 9, 2023
The Bucks have expressed trade interest in New York’s former MVP Derrick Rose, league sources say, but it’s difficult to see a pathway to Milwaukee absorbing Rose’s $14.5 million salary. The Bucks, of course, have been chasing a trade for Phoenix’s Jae Crowder for months and are also regarded as team with interest in the Knicks’ Cam Reddish as well, suggesting that the wing is Milwaukee’s priority.  -via marcstein.substack.com / February 8, 2023
