"Pacers Acquire Doug McDermott in Trade for Buddy Hield: NBA Trade Grades"

TL;DR Summary
The Indiana Pacers made several trades at the NBA trade deadline, including sending Buddy Hield to the Philadelphia 76ers and acquiring Doug McDermott from the San Antonio Spurs. Opinion on the trades varies, with some analysts giving the Pacers high grades and others questioning the decision to trade Hield, a valuable 3-point shooter. The trades are seen as financially motivated for the Pacers, who received draft picks and players in return, but weakened their team in the short term while potentially strengthening Eastern Conference competitors.
