With the Dallas Mavericks landing Nerlens Noel for Justin Anderson, Andrew Bogut and a protected pick in a trade with the Philadelphia 76ers, here are some NBA Trade Grades.

With the 2017 NBA Trade Deadline rapidly approaching, the first deal of Thursday morning was an unexpected but pleasant surprise — for one fanbase, at least.

As first reported by The Vertical’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Dallas Mavericks have agreed to send Andrew Bogut, Justin Anderson and a 2017 first round pick to the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for big man Nerlens Noel.

ESPN’s Marc Stein reported the first-rounder would be top-18 protected.

After shipping away a useful stretch-4 like Ersan Ilyasova on Wednesday, the spirit of Sam Hinkie and the Process lived on in Philly. The center logjam still needed to be cleared however, even with the incoming Tiago Splitter unlikely to ever play for the Sixers.

As for the Mavs, they had been shopping Bogut for awhile, and were finally able to move him for a buy-low candidate with tons of upside.

The question is, how did each side fare in this trade? To sort it all out, here are new NBA Trade Grades.
