Here’s the latest from Kingdome’s sister site, Know Hitter:
- Spanish striker Alvaro Morata is quickly making countryman Fernando Llorente expandable at Juventus.
- The Miami Heat’s acquisition of Goran Dragic (and his brother Zoran) have the team in a good place, thanks to the small price they paid to acquire the former All-NBA Third Team point guard.
- Philly was active on the trade front as well, as the 76ers brought in the likes of JaVale McGee and Isaiah Canaan and a haul of draft picks for the likes of Michael Carter-Williams and K.J. McDaniels. Know Hitter deemed the team as one of the winners of the trade deadline.
- In addition to the Heat and Sixers, Milwaukee also made a smart trade at the deadline, bringing in Carter-Williams, Tyler Ennis and Miles Plumlee. Know Hitter has them, along with the Heat and 76ers, as some of the “winners” of the trade deadline.
