The clock is ticking on the NBA’s trade deadline at 3 p.m. ET Thursday.
Through Tuesday, trade deadline action has been slow with the biggest trades coming early in the season (James Harden from Philadelphia to the Los Angeles Clippers and Damian Lillard from Portland to Milwaukee). Toronto unloaded OG Anunoby to New York and Pascal Siakam to Indiana last month.
Since then, it’s been mostly quiet with minor trades.
But there’s still time to make trades that shape the final two-plus months of the 2023-24 regular season – and beyond.
USA TODAY Sports will keep you updated with all the latest moves.
Tracking the NBA trades that have happened so far in the 2023-24 season:
Rockets land Steven Adams from Grizzlies
Feb. 1: In a swap of injured players, the Memphis Grizzlies sent center Steven Adams to the Houston Rockets for guard Victor Oladipo and three second-round draft picks. Adams is out for the season after sustaining a knee injury last season that required surgery. Adams last played Jan. 22, 2023, but he is expected to make a full recovery and be ready for the 2024-25 season. Adams averaged 8.6 points, 11.5 rebounds and 1.1 blocks and shot 59.7% in 42 games last season. Oladipo hasn’t played this season after tearing the patellar tendon in his left knee during the playoffs with Miami in April.

Hornets trade Terry Rozier to Heat for Kyle Lowry
Jan. 23: The Charlotte Hornets traded guard Terry Rozier to the Miami Heat for Kyle Lowry and a protected 2027 first-round drat pick. This helps the Heat on two fronts. They get a scoring guard in Rozier, who averages 23.2 points, 6.6 assists, 3.9 rebounds and 1.1 steals and shoots 45.9% from the field and 35.8% on free throws, and shedding Lowry’s contract will save the Heat $15.4 million luxury taxes, according to ESPN front office insider Bobby Marks. The deal also signals Charlotte’s plans to amass draft picks. The pick is lottery protected in 2027 and becomes unprotected in 2028.
Pacers land Pascal Siakam in deal with Raptors
Jan. 17: Toronto traded Pascal Siakam to Indiana for three first-round draft picks, Bruce Brown, Jordan Nwora and Kira Lewis Jr., who the Pacers acquired from New Orleans in exchange for cash considerations to faciliate the deal. It’s actually a good move for both teams.
Pistons get veterans Danilo Gallinari, Mike Muscala from Wizards
Jan. 14: The Detroit Pistons acquired Danilo Gallinari and Mike Muscala from the Washington Wizards for Marvin Bagley, Isaiah Livers and two second-round draft picks. The Pistons get two veterans on expiring deals to help with a young squad this season, and the Wizards take on two team friendly contracts and draft capital.
Raptors send OG Anunoby to the Knicks
Dec. 30: The Toronto Raptors traded OG Anunoby, Precious Achiuwa and Malachi Flynn to the New York Knicks for RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley and a 2024 second-round draft pick. The Raptors get scoring (and a hometown star in the Toronto-born Barrett), and the Knicks acquire more defense in Anunoby, who the Knicks believe can expand his offensive game.
Clippers land James Harden from Sixers
Nov. 1: The Philadelphia 76ers sent James Harden, P.J. Tucker and Filip Petrusev to the Los Angeles Clippers for Nic Batum, Robert Covington, Kenyon Martin Jr., Marcus Morris Sr., two first-round picks (2026, 2028), a first-round pick swap and two-second round picks in a deal that also included the Oklahoma City Thunder. OKC received the rights to a pick swap and cash considerations from the Clippers who added Harden to a roster that features Kawhi Leonard, Paul George and Russell Westbrook.
Kings get Filip Petrusev from Clippers
Nov. 1: The Clippers traded Filip Petrusev and cash considerations to the Sacramento Kings for the draft rights to Luka Mitrovic, the 60th pick in 2015 draft who plays in Serbia.
