“I don’t even think about it,” Connaughton said. “The interesting part about the NBA trade deadline is it’s similar to free agency, but just there’s more rumors and less, let’s say, early truths, if you will. “And so, I look at it as like, for the most part, every experience I’ve had with the trade deadline, the teams that I’ve been a part of, any guys that were going to get traded, they heard about it before Twitter heard about it. And their agents or the GM or things of that nature were up front with them and talking to them about it being a possibility. And, you know, in this business, that’s always a possibility, but, until I hear about it from somebody other than than Twitter, you kind of go about your business.”
