Nearly a week ago now, a three-team trade went down that brought former Chicago Bull, Lauri Markkanen, onto the Cleveland Cavaliers roster, moved Larry Nance Jr. to the Portland Trail Blazers, and saw Chicago acquiring Derrick Jones Jr. along with a first-round pick from Portland, and a Cleveland second-round pick. Both picks are protected. As a side note, Cleveland rescinded former two-way player Jeremiah Martin’s rights, too.
