The NBA is a bizarre workplace.
Normally, NBA locker rooms are open to reporters for a 45-minute window pregame, but on Wednesday night, the Golden State Warriors raised alarm bells that they might have a deal imminent on the eve of the NBA trade deadline when they kicked all the reporters out so that Steve Kerr could address the team privately ahead of their matchup with the Utah Jazz.
Our NBA insiders are working the phones to bring you all the latest on every deal and potential deal.
The Heat are sending Jimmy Butler to the Warriors as part of a multiteam trade, and the six-time All-Star has agreed to a new two-year, $121 million extension with Golden State, sources told ESPN.

Let’s grade the trade sending Jimmy Butler to the Golden State Warriors.
The long Jimmy Butler trade saga has finally reached a conclusion.
The Golden State Warriors acquired Butler from the Miami Heat for Andrew Wiggins, Dennis Schroder, Kyle Anderson, and a top-10 protected first-round pick, according to ESPN insider Shams Charania. Schröder is going to the Utah Jazz, and Kyle Anderson is going to the Detroit Pistons, per insider Chris Haynes.
The trade isn’t the only piece of news in this deal.
It turns out that the reports of the NFL looking to expand its Southern Hemisphere slate were true.
On Wednesday the league announced that it will be playing a game in Melbourne, Australia in 2026 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground — which holds 100,000; can you believe that many people want to pay to watch cricket?! — with the Los Angeles Rams already being named as the home team for the occasion.
