The human — and canine — side of big trades

When players get traded, all the attention is on their fit with new teammates. But often lost in that discussion is the human side of suddenly having to leave tight-knit groups. Two days ago, the Mavs Reggie Bullock revealed that he and Dorian Finney-Smith spent the All-Star Break in Belize on a previously planned vacation.

“That’s my brother,” Bullock told the media in Dallas.

But what about the canine side? That’s a question Tania Ganguli of the New York Times examines. She discloses that Mikal Bridges’ dog, Sonny, and Suns teammate Cameron Payne’s dog, Uno, will have to make an adjustment after years of being best buddies in Phoenix.
