There wasn’t a franchise changing deal on the scale of Kevin Love being shipped to the Cavaliers this week. The biggest trade of the past seven days involved the Clippers sending Jared Dudley and a lottery-protected 2017 first-round pick to the Bucks for Carlos Delfino, Miroslav Raduljica and returning the Clippers’ 2015 second-round pick, which Milwaukee acquired in a previous deal. Both Delfino and Raduljica were then waived by Los Angeles in a move to free up space against the team’s hard cap.
