Trade deadline day: The Knicks took a big swing, and some shooters are now in the playoff race
Associated PressBojan Bogdanovic left Detroit to join a now even-more-formidable contender in New York. As he live-streamed a video Thursday after learning about the trade, Beverley noted that “I’ve got to get my relationship right with Dame.” Lillard indicated that shouldn’t be an issue. “I enjoyed being teammates with Patrick Beverley for all of an hour and 45 minutes I’ll never forget those times,” Lopez wrote on X, the social media site formerly known as Twitter. “I think we’ve been through a lot but really guys have stepped up and are playing better.” Said Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka: “If the right move would have been there at the right price, we would have pulled the trigger.” Another team that didn’t make a trade: Cleveland, which has won 15 of its last 16 games to move to No. “Sometimes you don’t want to mess up a good thing,” Koby Altman, the Cavs’ president of basketball operations, said on a conference call shortly after the deadline passed.
