Well, it’s not going to be boring after all.

Joe Harris, the Nets longest serving player who twice led the NBA in 3-point percentage, has been traded to Detroit Friday along with two second rounders from their deadline deals for Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant: the Mavs second rounder in 2027 and the Bucks second rounder in 2029,

In return, the Nets will receive minimum considerations — perhaps cash — but more importantly, the trade will create a $20 million trade exception and get the Nets under the salary cap for the first time since 2019 just before the Clean Sweep that brought the two superstars to Brooklyn.
