Philadelphia 76ers point guard Michael Carter-Williams has been traded to the Milwaukee Bucks in a three-team trade which has sent Brandon Knight to the Phoenix Suns.
Last season's Rookie of the Year Carter-Williams arrives in Milwaukee with Phoenix duo Miles Plumlee and Tyler Ennis, while the Suns have picked up Knight as a replacement for Goran Dragic, who moved to the Miami heat on trade deadline day.
Carter-Williams, who has averaged 15 points and 7.4 assists per game this season, was quick to reveal his surprise at the decision on Twitter.
I can't lie I'm shocked. I love this city thank you for everything. I can honestly say I gave it my all. I wish Philly nothing but the best
