Yossi Gozlan: The Pistons will need to include another player or waive a player to make room for the two-for-one. Jaden Ivey for Kevin Huerter works straight up. Dario Saric will go into the $14.1 million Dennis Schroder trade exception. They have $8.7 million remaining in it.
Sources say Cleveland, meanwhile, passed on taking back Monk's contract in the Hunter deal rather than Schröder … although it certainly didn't hurt that Schröder has experienced no shortage of national team success with Germany. That is said to have appealed to Cavaliers coach Kenny Atkinson, who on top of his own FIBA experiences knows Schröder from their time together in Atlanta.
Yossi Gozlan: While we have suspension tax credits on our minds, the Cleveland Cavaliers will inherit Dennis Schroder's $146,276 tax credit from his three-game suspension earlier this month. This saves the Cavs an additional $850,000 against the luxury tax.
Yossi Gozlan: Dennis Schroeder has now been traded 8 times. He is now tied with multiple players for the second-most times traded in NBA history. Trevor Ariza is the leader with 11 trades.

Marc J. Spears: “Happy… Thanks Sacramento. Excited about what Cleveland brings,” new Cavaliers guard Dennis Schröder to @andscape .
Yossi Gozlan: I doubt the Sacramento Kings are done. De'Andre Hunter for Dennis Schroder adds $10 million to their 2026-27 payroll, pushing them $13 million over the projected luxury tax line. I expect them to make subsequent moves to address this.
Bobby Marks: The trade saves Cleveland nearly $50M in salary and luxury tax this season. More importantly, it gives Cleveland a veteran guard in Schroder and defensive wing with Ellis. Saric will go into the $6.2M Zach LaVine trade exception. Chicago will need to open up a roster spot.
Yossi Gozlan: The Cleveland Cavaliers save $50 million in payroll and luxury tax combined by trading De'Andre Hunter for Dennis Schroder and Keon Ellis. They also go from $22 million above the second apron to $13.9 million above it.

Cleveland and Sacramento have discussed a framework that would send Cavaliers forward De’Andre Hunter to the Kings for Keon Ellis, Dennis Schroeder, and Dario Saric, league sources told HoopsHype. A third team could be looped in to take on Saric, and second-round draft pick compensation also could be added to the framework, sources said.
The Kings were sifting through a variety of Ellis scenarios Friday, league sources say, including larger trade constructions that could feature the likes of DeMar DeRozan, Malik Monk and Cleveland's Hunter. Word also surfaced that a specific three-team framework is being discussed between the Kings and Cavaliers that potentially includes Sacramento's Dennis Schroder.
Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schroder didn’t mince words when asked about the rumors swirling around his team with the Feb. 5 NBA trade deadline fast approaching. “I don’t give a f--- about that,” Schroder said. “At the end of the day, I enjoy every single day being in the NBA. I don’t take it for granted.”
