Philadelphia sends Michael Carter-Williams to Detroit for Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Spencer Dinwiddie and a future draft pick

The Sixers won’t be active during the trade deadline, unless it’s dealing some of their players for second-rounders. However, the player that is always rumored to be on the trading block is Michael Carter-Williams. If the price is right, Sam Hinkie will move him. Detroit needs a point guard to make a playoff push with Brandon Jennings out. Even when Jennings returns, MCW will be a cheap backup for a few years.

The Sixers do this, because they get a future first, a former lottery pick in KCP and Dinwiddie, who can give point guard depth and deserves playing time to show his potential. Philly would only part with MCW for the right price tag and this combination from Detroit would do it.
