Sources: Four-team Gary Payton trade on track to go through
The four-team trade held up by Golden State's concern over Gary Payton II's physical is tracking to be completed, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
There's still work to do to get Golden State's approval on trade, but there's optimism that it'll be completed ahead of Sunday night's deadline, sources said.
The deal, agreed to prior to Thursday's trade deadline, sends Payton to Golden State, James Wiseman to Detroit, Saddiq Bey to Atlanta and Kevin Knox II to Portland. The Warriors also sent five second-round picks -- including two via Atlanta -- to the Blazers in the deal.
