Following a flurry of big-time moves, Thursday was relatively quiet for the Sixers and league-wide. Still, coach Nick Nurse expected those final hours to be "a little bit strange."

The Sixers sent Milwaukee’s 2027 second-round pick and Dallas’s 2031 pick to Detroit for cash considerations, getting Martin’s contract off the books. The Sixers waived Nance for the second time this season. The forward had played 68 minutes over seven games.

The NBA trade deadline is a stressful time for everybody around the league. Rumors are always in the air and players are always on high alert wondering where they are going to play after 3 p.m. EST on Thursday.
