The Miami Heat, league sources say, have made it their mission now to find a palatable Jimmy Butler deal before the Feb. 6 trade deadline at 3 PM ET. So much for the notion that the Heat might find it wiser to wait until the offseason to gain optionality in the quest for a more digestible swap. The messiest and most draining saga of the rings-laden Pat Riley Era suddenly has the Heat downright eager to ship Butler out.
If that’s not all: It emerged without warning Tuesday afternoon via ESPN that the Sacramento Kings have been advised by De’Aaron Fox’s representation (Klutch Sports’ Rich Paul) that it would be wise to field trade offers for the star guard. Fox has apparently decided with a firmness that, possessing only one season left on his contract after this one, he is not interested in committing his long-term future to the Kings.
So …
Let’s get into the Tuesday Night Trade Latest on both of these hot topics:
NBA Trade Season is officially underway and teams are gearing up to make some big moves. With the trade deadline quickly approaching, rumors are swirling about potential deals that could shake up the league.
Some of the biggest names on the trade block include Ben Simmons, Damian Lillard, and Bradley Beal. Teams are looking to improve their rosters and make a push for the playoffs, while others are looking to rebuild for the future.
As the deadline approaches, teams will be looking to make deals to improve their chances of making a deep playoff run. Stay tuned for all the latest trade rumors and updates as the NBA Trade Season revs up.

There’s optimism in Dallas that star Mavericks guard Luka Doncic will be able to return to action prior to next month’s All-Star Game, reports NBA insider Marc Stein (Twitter link).
Doncic sustained a left calf strain on Christmas Day vs. Minnesota, with subsequent reports indicating that he was expected to miss at least a month. The Mavs confirmed that they intended to reevaluate the five-time All-Star in approximately one month, so a formal update from the team could be around the corner.
Beginning with Saturday’s NBA Finals rematch vs. the defending champion Celtics, the Mavericks have 11 more games before All-Star weekend (Feb. 14-16). Doncic has already missed the club’s past 15 games as a result of his calf strain. Dallas is 5-10 during that stretch, with a handful of key players battling injuries.
While the Mavericks will obviously be inclined to play it safe with Doncic, who has dealt with multiple calf injuries over the course of his career, it would provide a huge lift if they can get him back on the court in the coming weeks.
The Mavs’ recent slump has dropped them into play-in territory in the Western Conference — the club currently holds the No. 7 seed, with a 24-21 record, and is just a single game ahead of the No. 10 Suns.
Prior to his injury, Doncic was averaging 28.1 points, 8.3 rebounds, 7.8 assists, and a career-high 2.0 steals in 35.7 minutes per game across 22 outings, with a shooting line of .464/.354/.767. As a result of this lengthy absence, he won’t be eligible for any end-of-season awards, since he’ll fall short of the 65-game requirement. He had made the All-NBA First Team five consecutive times entering 2024/25.
Grant Afseth of Dallas Hoops Journal previously reported that Doncic was on track to get healthy prior to the All-Star break.
Stein: Optimism Mavs’ Doncic Will Return Before ASG
According to NBA insider Marc Stein, there is optimism within the Dallas Mavericks organization that star player Luka Doncic will make his return to the court before the All-Star Game. Doncic has been sidelined with an ankle injury, but the team is hopeful that he will be able to recover in time to showcase his talents on the national stage.
Doncic has been a standout performer for the Mavericks this season, averaging nearly a triple-double with 28.8 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 8.7 assists per game. His absence has been felt by the team, but they remain confident in their ability to compete in his absence.
If Doncic is able to make his return before the All-Star break, it will be a huge boost for the Mavericks as they look to solidify their position in the Western Conference standings. Fans will be eagerly awaiting his comeback, and the team will be counting on him to lead them to success in the second half of the season. Stay tuned for updates on Doncic’s recovery and potential return date.

Josh Stein to be Sworn in as NC Governor on Wednesday
It has been announced that Josh Stein will be sworn in as the new Governor of North Carolina on Wednesday. This comes after the recent election results were certified, confirming Stein as the winner.
Stein, a longtime public servant and former Attorney General of North Carolina, has promised to bring a fresh perspective and new ideas to the governor’s office. His focus on issues such as healthcare, education, and economic development has resonated with voters across the state.
Many are looking forward to seeing what Stein will bring to the table as the new leader of North Carolina. His inauguration ceremony is set to take place at the state capitol on Wednesday, and all are invited to attend and witness this historic moment. Stay tuned for updates on this exciting event!
RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) — Governor-elect Josh Stein was sworn-in as North Carolina’s 76th Governor at 11 a.m. Wednesday.
He was joined by his wife, Anna, and family. Stein swore to support the Constitution and laws of the United States and North Carolina and to faithfully perform the duties of the office of governor.
Stein’s first words after the transfer of power were, “Happy New Year!”
Governor Roy Cooper offered words of welcome. Secretary of State Elaine Marshall presided over the ceremony for the transfer of the Great Seal of the State and witnessed the Oath of Office. North Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice Paul Newby administered the oath of office while Stein placed his hand on a historic Tanakh. Pastor James Gailliard and Rabbi Judith Schindler offered prayers and words of wisdom.
Former Governor Roy Cooper completes peace transfer of power to Gov. Josh Stein
“As I take this oath of office, I am profoundly aware of the solemn responsibility before me: to uphold the Constitution of the State of North Carolina and to serve our people,” said Governor Josh Stein. “The work ahead of us is significant, but the time is now to build a safer, stronger North Carolina, where our economy continues to grow and works for everyone, where our public schools are excellent and our teachers are well-paid, and where our neighborhoods are safe and our personal freedoms are protected. And of course, we must act with urgency to help the people of western North Carolina recover from Hurricane Helene. And we will.”
“I think he’s got one of the most serious day one challenges anybody’s ever had, and that is the devastation in western North Carolina to people’s lives, to the economy, to the beauty of the place. There’s just so much work that’s going to have to be done and we need to all be in with both shoulders pushing forward,” said Secretary of State Elaine Marshall.
Stein is set to announce Hurricane Helene recovery executive orders as his first actions as Governor during an event in Asheville Thursday. “We must act with urgency to help the people of western North Carolina recover from Hurricane Helene. We must help rebuild housing, support small businesses, and restore broken infrastructure,” said Stein. The State Legislature has previously passed three rounds of disaster relief funding. The last round – SB 382 – also ushered in a series of electoral changes which separately shifted power among the Council of State.
Acting in his capacity as Attorney General, Stein joined Cooper in filing a legal challenge against sections of the legislation. Today however, Stein preached the importance of bipartisanship.
“We will go further when we go together. Not as Democrats, not as Republicans, not as independents, but as North Carolinians,” said Stein.
Wednesday’s swearing-in was not open to the public, with a small group of family, staffers, and elected officials among those who were in attendance.
“He’s a North Carolinian and he cares about the people of North Carolina and he cares about the state. He is a tremendous public servant. And so he is the right person to be governor at this time. He’s just a nice person and a tremendous individual,” said Reuben Young, who retired Tuesday after serving as Civil Bureau Chief for the North Carolina Department of Justice.
Cooper, who is out of office for the first time since 1987, participated in a transfer of seal ceremony and spoke Wednesday.
“I will sleep well tonight knowing that I am your constituent and that you are my governor,” said Cooper.
Stein’s election
Stein was elected after a contentious race against opponent Mark Robinson, who was at the time, serving as the state’s Lt. Governor.
Stein, like Cooper, catapulted from the attorney general’s office to the Executive Mansion. The win makes Stein the first Jewish governor of the Tar Heel State.
During his acceptance speech on election night, Josh Stein said “NC ’embraced a vision’ in electing him governor over challenger Mark Robinson.”
Stein appeared on ABC News “This Week” where he said that his service as North Carolina’s attorney general gave voters confidence and called the Tar Heel state a “bright spot” for Democrats on election night.
Today marks a historic moment in North Carolina’s political history as Josh Stein was officially sworn in as the state’s 76th Governor in a transfer of power ceremony held in Raleigh.
The ceremony, which took place at the state capitol building, was attended by prominent political figures, state officials, and members of the public. As Governor Stein took the oath of office, he pledged to serve the people of North Carolina with integrity, compassion, and dedication.
In his inaugural address, Governor Stein outlined his vision for the state, emphasizing the importance of unity, progress, and opportunity for all North Carolinians. He vowed to work tirelessly to address pressing issues such as healthcare, education, and economic development, and to uphold the values of democracy and justice.
As Governor Stein assumes office, he faces a myriad of challenges and opportunities, but his commitment to building a better future for North Carolina is unwavering. The people of the state can rest assured that they have a strong and capable leader at the helm, ready to guide them through the challenges ahead.
With this momentous occasion, North Carolina enters a new chapter in its history, and Governor Josh Stein will undoubtedly leave his mark on the state’s political landscape for years to come. Let us all join together in supporting him as he leads our state towards a brighter and more prosperous future.
