What is Happening in the NBA?

After the Sunday news, NBA Players, staff, GMs, and also NBA fans are very invested in this year's trade because let's face it: A LOT HAS HAPPENED AND A LOT HAS BEEN HAPPENING! Players that we DID NOT expect to get traded got traded and most of the NBA fans are feeling confused with all the news about the NBA Trades this year—and mind you, it's still February and the trade deadline is on February 6, 2025, EST!

What's happening to the NBA is pretty common but what the GMs and teams did to their players is very surprising—especially that their "untouchables" or "star players" were the ones who got traded. So yes, if you're an NBA fan, you're in for a long and exciting ride this season!
