It didn’t take long for the NBA to produce the first big trade of this summer. Amid the ongoing finals, Grizzlies and Magic agreed on a blockbuster move, sending star guard Desmond Bane to Orlando. In exchange, the Memphis squad received young ball handler Cole Anthony, two-time champ Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, four first-round picks, and a first round pick swap four years from now. Soon after, Bane arrived in his new home, instantly catching Kevin Durant’s attention.
Yes, the Orlando team shared glimpses of Desmond’s first moments in the Magic facility. With a smile on his face, the shooting guard soaked it all in and said, “This is a little different than Memphis right here, for sure.” Of course, Bane started his career with the Grizzlies and this is his first time switching teams in five years. Naturally, it was a unique experience for him. Then, he seemingly had a brief meeting with Magic head coach Jamahl Mosley, as they dapped each other up to begin their new partnership.
The dap was so loud that it even had Durant chiming in. “They heard this dap in Memphis” The Slim Reaper tweeted, sending a strong message on the trade.
While Mosley’s back was turned to the camera the whole time, the man in the video was likely him, as Bane could be heard asking, “You good coach?”
