Point guards moving quickly made
this trade deadline a transition game.
Goran Dragic, Michael Carter-Wil-
liams, Reggie Jackson and Brandon
Knight all were dealt Thursday in the
¿QDO KRXUV WKDW WUDGHV ZHUH DOORZHG
as a number of teams handed their
keys to different drivers.
Kevin Garnett also has a new ad-
dress — his original NBA one. The
Timberwolves brought him back
to Minnesota by sending Thaddeus
Young to Brooklyn.
There were so many players on the
move in deals agreed to shortly before
the 3 p.m. EST deadline that most of
the transactions were still awaiting
NBA approval hours later.
Dragic and Jackson were two play-
ers to watch on deadline day, because
neither was expected to remain with
his team after this season. Both their
teams opted to move them rather than
risk losing them for nothing.
Phoenix sent Dragic to Miami,

Zoran Dragic, Goran’s brother,
also went from Phoenix to Miami.
Jackson, who began the season re-
placing an injured Russell Westbrook,
now will step in for the sidelined Bran-
don Jennings. The Oklahoma City
Thunder sent Jackson to Detroit in a
three-way trade that included Utah.
Even backup point guards seemed
in demand, with players such as Isaiah
Thomas (Boston), Ramon Sessions
(Washington), Andre Miller (Sac-
ramento), DJ Augustin (Oklahoma
City), Norris Cole (New Orleans) and
Pablo Prigioni (Houston) getting new
homes.

where good individual talent added
up to a collective mess, so they broke
it apart Thursday. Portland acquired

spots in each conference were among
the busiest. Miami, the current No. 8
in the East, picked up Dragic, while
the Nets (Young) and Boston Celtics
(Thomas) are close behind and may
have upgraded. The Suns will count
on Knight to help them try to hold
off Oklahoma City and New Orleans,
which added point guard help in Jack-
son and Cole, respectively.

as Sacramento coach, George Karl
was reunited with one of his favorites
from his Denver days. Miller played

Arizona (23-3, 11-2 Pac-12)
did what it was supposed to at
home against the conference’s
last-place team, overwhelming
the Trojans with a slew of dunks
and easy baskets at the rim. The
Wildcats led by 18 at halftime
and didn’t let up to win their
35th straight home game.
Johnson had seven rebounds
and six assists, and Tarczewski
