NBA Trade Deadline Team-by-Team Grades: Giannis Stayed put, so who did well?

The 2026 NBA trade deadline has come and gone, with multiple former All-Stars changing uniforms. While the biggest star of them all — Giannis Antetokounmpo — wasn’t moved, we can take solace in the fact that Ochai Agbaji was.
