The Sixers are amending their trade with the Mavericks and will now send Dallas a second-round pick in 2030 in addition to Caleb Martin, league sources tell Marc Stein (Twitter link).
According to Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer (Twitter link), the 76ers are trading their own 2030 second-rounder to the Mavs. Philadelphia will control multiple 2030 second-round picks after officially completing its trade with Washington.
As Stein explains, Martin has been dealing with a right hip sprain and was believed to be nearing a return, but his physical was flagged due to the injury (Twitter links). Both teams consulted with the league office and Philadelphia agreed to send Dallas a second-round pick as a result.
Stein clarifies that the Mavericks don’t have any long-term concerns about Martin’s hip, though a return timeline for the veteran swingman has yet to be established.
Dallas sent impending restricted free agent Quentin Grimes and Philadelphia’s 2025 second-rounder, which the Mavs controlled from a previous deal, to the 76ers in the trade.
Not quite on the same level as the Celtics sending a 2nd for IT’s hip
Crime can shoot from the three
Martin is super inconsistent, injury?
76ers need to add 1 First to the deal
Mavs should of just vetoed deal… his contract is a negative vaule…
The Mavs have had the worst trade deadline sequence ever in sports (NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL and whatever other league is out there in the world l). Who cares what they do this season at this point. It’s going to take 4-5 years to really get over this trade. Even after that they will always be known as the franchise that traded Luka. I will not watch the 30 for 30 episode cause I don’t want to live through that moment of time again. It felt like getting dumped by girl u really liked as a teenager.
Anyone else vaguely remember Grimes as being a hold up in a Donovan Mitchell trade?
Yes, at the time it was reported that the Knicks refused to include Grimes in the trade. I’m sure they would love reverse that decision if true.
