The NBA trade deadline has seen noteworthy moves, particularly involving former Utah Jazz players. De'Andre Hunter was traded from the Atlanta Hawks to the Cleveland Cavaliers in exchange for Caris LeVert, draft assets, and Georges Niang. Niang, who enjoyed a productive stint with the Jazz from 2017 to 2021, has transitioned from the Philadelphia 76ers to the Cavaliers, and now to Atlanta.

This trade bolsters the Cavaliers as they add a versatile 3&D wing in Hunter, complementing their star lineup. The Hawks, on the other hand, are gaining solid draft picks and clearing cap space while bidding farewell to Hunter.
