Assuming no players are added to the deal and it remains a three-for-one swap, Portland will have to cut a player from its 15-man roster to make room for the newcomers. The Knicks gave up a protected first-round pick last February to acquire Reddish, but he has fallen out of favor and hasn’t played since December 3. The 27-year-old wing is expected to decline his $12.96MM option this summer and seek a long-term deal in free agency.

The New York Knicks made a major move to acquire Portland Trail Blazers swingman Josh Hart, just hours before the NBA trade deadline arrives.

Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart were teammates at Villanova before making it to the NBA Hart is moving to the Knicks in exchange for a 2023 protected first-round pick and small forward Cam Reddish, according to Knicks 'acquire Josh Hart from the Portland Trail Blazers in exchange for Cam Reddish, other players and picks'...

Hart reunites with Jalen Brunson in New York, while Reddish looks for a fresh start in Portland.

However, they did have to give up a first-round pick to get Reddish and then give up another one in the trade to get rid of him, which isn't great asset management. He's shown some flashes on both sides of the ball, however, and is still only 23 years old; it doesn't hurt the Blazers to take a look at him.

But even if they do sneak into the playoffs, it's clear this team is not going anywhere this season, so they made the wise choice to become sellers. And they still could; though they are in 12th place entering Wednesday night's slate of games, they are percentage points out of play-in position and just three games out of fifth in the crowded Western Conference.

The Knicks also did well to get the lottery protection on the first-round pick, which gives them some insurance against a post-All-Star break collapse or a disappointing result in the play-in tournament. This is also the second deadline in a row that Reddish has been moved.

If he can get back up into that range from 3, it will be a big boost for the Knicks. The big question is whether he can rediscover his 3-point shot.

So, any time that happens it’s tough, but I think, for him, just knowing that he is a good dude, he’s a good person, I know that he liked being in Portland, he wanted to be in Portland and, you know, you get people to come here and know that they want to be here but the business takes over is just unfortunate. He spent a full calendar year in Portland, spanning two seasons, where he became somewhat of a fan favorite for his personality off the court and tenacity on it. What can they do to get better?’ You know, everybody else is looking at it from a business standpoint and how to improve and all these things, but we get up and spend time with each other every day. I think, for everybody who’s been here the entire time that I’ve been here, one of the hardest parts is when you form a friendship, form a bond with somebody, and everybody’s looking at ‘What are they doing on the court? Whether that pick remains with Portland through the trade deadline is yet to be seen.
