NBA Trade Deadline Open Thread

The Wizards made two big moves on Wednesday night. They traded Otto Porter to the Chicago Bulls for Bobby Portis and Jabari Parker. They also traded Markieff Morris to the Pelicans for Wesley Johnson and a future second round pick. The end result is that the Wizards could get some salary cap relief for this year because they move under the tax and it also gives them some cap savings in the 2019-20 season because Washington has a team option on Portis that they probably won’t use.
