2018 NBA Offseason Trades

As we did with last year’s offseason trades and the in-season swaps from 2017/18, Hoops Rumors will be keeping track of all of the trades made this offseason, right up until the start of the 2018/19 season, updating this post with each transaction.

Trades are listed here in reverse chronological order, with the latest on top. So, if a player has been traded multiple times, the first team listed as having acquired him is the one that ended up with him.

If a trade has not yet been formally finalized, it won’t be listed here. So, if a deal agreed upon during the draft in June isn’t made official until the new league year, it will show up on our list after it’s completed in July.
