The NBA world is absolutely stunned by the Kings trading Tyrese Haliburton in Domantas Sabonis deal with Pacers

WOW.

WOWWWWWWWWWWW.

That’s pretty much it when it comes to the giant trade report that dropped on Tuesday afternoon as the NBA deadline for making deals approaches on Thursday. 

ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski says the Indiana Pacers — who are in the middle of a tear-it-all-down rebuild — have dealt star forward Domantas Sabonis, Jeremy Lamb and Justin Holiday to the Sacramento Kings.

In exchange? Buddy Hield, Tristan Thompson, a second-rounder in 2027 … and Tyrese Haliburton.

That’s not a typo. The Kings dealt one of the best young guards in the NBA. Yes, Sabonis is terrific in his own right.

But how do you trade Haliburton? Everyone from NBA players to fans wanted to know the same thing.
