2025 NBA Trade Deadline: Latest Blockbuster Deals, Rumors, and Updates

The 2025 NBA Trade Deadline is living up to its blockbuster reputation. The league has already witnessed shocking moves, including a trade that sent Luka Dončić to the Lakers in exchange for Anthony Davis, leaving both stars—and fans—stunned. In another surprising deal, De’Aaron Fox forced his way to San Antonio to pair up with Victor Wembanyama, and the Caleb Martin-for-Quentin Grimes swap also made waves.

With the trade deadline set for Thursday, Feb. 6, at 3 p.m. ET, more moves are expected. Below is the latest trade news, rumors, and developments leading up to the deadline. Check back often for updates as new deals emerge.



Bradley Beal Likely Staying in Phoenix

It’s no surprise, but it’s all but official—Bradley Beal will remain with the Suns past the trade deadline. Beal holds a no-trade clause, giving him full control over any potential move, and sources confirm there are no discussions about waiving it. Additionally, there appears to be no strong trade market for Beal at this time.

Kings Trade De’Aaron Fox to Spurs in Three-Team Deal

The Kings have reportedly finalized a three-team trade sending De’Aaron Fox to the Spurs, while Zach LaVine heads to Sacramento. Fox had expressed a preference for landing in San Antonio, and the Spurs have been eager to add a star playmaker alongside Wembanyama.

76ers Nearing KJ Martin Trade

Philadelphia forward KJ Martin is on the verge of being traded and was held out of the Sixers’ latest game in anticipation of a move. The 76ers are reportedly exploring multiple trade options, though most scenarios involve salary-dump deals rather than bringing back another player in return.


Kevin Durant Drawing Interest from Warriors, Mavericks, and Rockets

Kevin Durant’s name continues to be at the center of trade discussions, with Golden State, Dallas, and Houston all expressing interest.

  • Warriors: A reunion with Durant is on the table as the team looks for a star shot creator to pair with Stephen Curry.
  • Mavericks: After parting ways with Luka Dončić, Dallas is unexpectedly in the mix, though pulling off a deal would require a complex multi-player trade.
  • Rockets: Houston has the assets to make a move but has been hesitant to disrupt their young core unless it’s for a franchise-altering player.

Reports also suggest a potential three-team trade involving Jimmy Butler, Kevin Durant, and Andrew Wiggins, but Phoenix has little incentive to swap Durant for Butler.

Lonzo Ball Drawing Interest but Expected to Stay in Chicago

Lonzo Ball has made a strong comeback this season, averaging 7.2 points and 3.5 assists off the bench. Several teams have inquired about him, but the Bulls are likely to keep him and attempt to re-sign him in the summer.

Lakers in Search of a Big Man

After acquiring Luka Dončić, the Lakers are prioritizing frontcourt depth. GM Rob Pelinka acknowledged that the market for big men is thin, making it more likely that they wait until the offseason to make a major move.


Bucks and Wizards Discuss Khris Middleton-Kyle Kuzma Trade

The Milwaukee Bucks and Washington Wizards have reportedly discussed a trade that would send Khris Middleton to Washington in exchange for Kyle Kuzma. The Bucks are looking to offload salary, and moving Middleton’s contract could help them get under the second tax apron.

Denver Nuggets Not Trading Michael Porter Jr.

Despite ongoing trade speculation, Nuggets head coach Michael Malone made it clear that the team is not moving Michael Porter Jr. The young forward remains a key piece for Denver as they look to defend their title.


Limited Trade Market for Jimmy Butler

Unlike Durant, Jimmy Butler isn’t generating significant trade interest outside of Phoenix. While Miami has explored deals, Butler’s age (35), injury history, and desire for a contract extension have limited the number of suitors.

With just days left until the deadline, expect more movement and surprises as teams make their final pushes for roster upgrades. Stay tuned for the latest updates.
