Yes, I have the throwback Nike jersey's are in my MyLeague. I'm not sure about the shoes since I'm not a shoe guy, but I would assume that they're in as well.

Oh, the T'Wolves are hurting with both Teague and Wiggins out. Nurkic being done for the season helps the Pelicans, too. Impressed the Blazers are still fighting, though.

NBA TRADE ALERT



Sacramento has agreed to send Vince Carter and the rights to Arturas Gudaitis to the Los Angeles Clippers for Wesley Johnson and 2017 2nd Round Pick Sindarius Thornwell.

Kings - With a record of 17-21 the Kings aren't likely to make the playoffs this season and with rookies, Justin Jackson and Bogdan Bogdanovic playing well Carter's minutes had already been greatly reduced. In the past, Carter has stated that this will be his last season and the Kings wanted to send him to a place where he can compete in the playoffs. Wes Johnson likely won't see much time for the Kings, but he will save them some money and Thornwell will go straight to the G-League so that the organization can see what they have in him.

Clippers - The Clippers are 27-11 and in 3rd place in the West. They made this move to sure up their bench and give them an extra shooter. Carter may only be needed if an injury occurs, however, his presence on the bench and in the locker room would be a welcome addition to any team. Gudaitis will likely stay overseas for a while but the Clippers will want to see him in the Summer League.
