Josh Hart-Cam Reddish trade grades: Solid move for Knicks ... (CBSSports.com)

Hart reunites with Jalen Brunson in New York, while Reddish looks for a fresh start in Portland.

However, they did have to give up a first-round pick to get Reddish and then give up another one in the trade to get rid of him, which isn't great asset management. He's shown some flashes on both sides of the ball, however, and is still only 23 years old; it doesn't hurt the Blazers to take a look at him. [Atlanta Hawks](https://www.cbssports.com/nba/teams/ATL/atlanta-hawks/) in exchange for Kevin Knox and a future first-round pick, which originally belonged to the [Charlotte Hornets](https://www.cbssports.com/nba/teams/CHA/charlotte-hornets/) and has not yet conveyed. But even if they do sneak into the playoffs, it's clear this team is not going anywhere this season, so they made the wise choice to become sellers. And they still could; though they are in 12th place entering Wednesday night's slate of games, they are percentage points out of play-in position and just three games out of fifth in the crowded Western Conference. [New York Knicks](https://www.cbssports.com/nba/teams/NY/new-york-knicks/) have agreed to trade [Cam Reddish](/nba/players/3042251/cam-reddish/), [Ryan Arcidiacono](/nba/players/2253462/ryan-arcidiacono/), [Svi Mykhailiuk](/nba/players/2152517/svi-mykhailiuk/) and a protected first-round pick to the [Portland Trail Blazers](https://www.cbssports.com/nba/teams/POR/portland-trail-blazers/) in exchange for [Josh Hart](/nba/players/2105193/josh-hart/), [according to Adrian Wojnarowski](https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1623517868653527040?s=20&t=RcvB2cNc7z2D-7_iUelNcg). The Knicks also did well to get the lottery protection on the first-round pick, which gives them some insurance against a post-All-Star break collapse or a disappointing result in the play-in tournament. This is also the second deadline in a row that Reddish has been moved. [New Orleans Pelicans](https://www.cbssports.com/nba/teams/NO/new-orleans-pelicans/) sent him to the Blazers in the [CJ McCollum](/nba/players/2067685/cj-mccollum/) trade. Part of the downside of Thibodeau's rigid style is that some players either aren't interested in playing that way or take time to adjust; that won't be the case for Hart, who will help beef up the Knicks' wing rotation. If he can get back up into that range from 3, it will be a big boost for the Knicks. The big question is whether he can rediscover his 3-point shot.

As basketball coaches at Villanova, it's no surprise that for Jay Wright and Kyle Neptune, their favorite Jalen Brunson moments didn't center around any of ...

“It’s not about the championships, the banners, the guys in the NBA,” Wright said. “Villanova is a special place,” said Arcidiacono, who had his jersey retired in 2020. I came here to help the team win and came here to be with a special group of men. On the other side of Finneran Pavilion, Brunson was told the news. Of course, most former college athletes take pride in their alma mater, but Villanova players tend to take it a bit further. An Eagles fan, he also finished the ceremony off with a “go Birds.” “He bought into the values and what coach Wright was preaching and only enhanced our environment that much more.” “It’s in his DNA.” It may be a bit myopic, but in the modern era, it’s hard to argue. “He went and became a great defensive player,” Wright said. The game was basically decided already thanks to Donte DiVincenzo’s heroics, but Brunson, the 2018 National Player of the Year, was like another coach on the bench. For Wright, it was more of a series of moments.

Watch: Jalen Brunson reacts to Josh Hart being traded to Knicks (Yardbarker)

Jalen Brunson didn't just get his jersey retired by Villanova. He got a Villanova teammate on the Knicks.

"No one in the West?" This seems to be the clearest indication yet that Carr could be headed to the Saints in a blockbuster trade at some point soon. 29 due to the Dolphins' forfeited pick.) Whether the Saints would be willing to pay that high of a price for a quarterback who was benched by the Raiders a season ago remains to be seen. The Grizzlies lost to the 2022 championship-winning Warriors in the semifinals last year. The question here is whether the Raiders and Saints can work something out as it relates to a trade. George and Westbrook played together with the Oklahoma City Thunder from 2017-2019 before George was traded to the Clippers in a massive trade. There is speculation that the Jazz could work on a buyout, which would lead to Westbrook hitting the market. The Lakers agreed to a three-team deal that also involved the Utah Jazz and Minnesota Timberwolves. That was a huge trade as the Lakers filled a lot of the remaining holes on their roster. The NBA is a unique sports league across the world in that they have time and again committed to speaking out against social injustice in the world. Jae Crowder was traded from the Suns to the Nets on Wednesday as part of the blockbuster Kevin Durant deal, but the veteran forward’s stint in Brooklyn was a very brief one. Jessica Pegula received news that her mother was heading to the hospital after going into cardiac arrest and being unresponsive "for quite a while," and that Kelly had given Kim life-saving CPR.

There should be enough time for the Villanova trio to squeeze in a few dinner dates. Warren to the Suns in exchange for Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder (who has since been traded to the Bucks), four first-round picks, and a pick swap. The 27-year-old guard will be a huge upgrade for New York’s bench as the team looks to secure a playoff berth.
