This complex deal involves the Wizards, Mavericks, Grizzlies, Pistons, Bucks, and Clippers, proving once again that the NBA offseason is never quiet.
The Big Moves
The centerpiece of the trade sees Khris Middleton heading to the Washington Wizards. Middleton returns to D.C. on a three-year, $17.6 million deal via sign-and-trade from Dallas. His veteran presence is a major get for a Wizards team looking to stabilize its perimeter scoring.

- Milwaukee Bucks: Land Caris LeVert from Detroit, adding a versatile secondary creator to support their core.
- Detroit Pistons: Acquired John Collins via sign-and-trade from the Clippers on a three-year, $51 million deal, bolstering their frontcourt athleticism.
- Dallas Mavericks: Secure Santi Aldama from Memphis, adding a floor-spacing big man to their rotation.
