The NBA trade deadline has hit, but a flurry of trades went through just prior.

Reggie Jackson, Goran Dragic, and Enes Kanter are among the players who ended up getting traded.

Check out the latest rumors and news below.

Three-Team Trade Has MCW Moving

The Sixers have dealt last year’s Rookie of the Year to the Bucks. Philly has sent Michael Carter Williams to the Bucks, who have sent Brandon Knight to the Suns.

Phoenix has sent Tyler Ennis to Milwaukee reported Marc Stein of ESPN. The Bucks will also get Miles Plumlee, reported Jeff Zillgitt of USA Today.

Philly has also acquired multiple first-round picks in the deal, which is still being clarified. One of the picks has been pegged as the Lakers first-round pick that was part of the Steve Nash deal, and that is top-five protected this season.
