Former Michigan Wolverines basketball star Caris LeVert was dealt from the Brooklyn Nets to the Indiana Pacers as a part of the four-team deal that most notably sent James Harden from the Houston Rockets to Brooklyn.

During the process of being traded, which includes a medical examination, there was a small mass found on LeVert's left kidney. As a result, LeVert underwent successful surgery last week to remove the cancerous mass. He is expected to make a full recovery and remains out indefinitely for Indiana. He will not need further treatment.

Elsewhere in the NBA, Duncan Robinson continues to shine for the Miami Heat. Despite a tough shooting stretch for the third-year marksman, Robinson recovered in a Jan. 30 win over the Kings, nailing four threes and adding three rebounds in the 105-104 triumph.

Since he's emerged over the last two seasons as one of the top shooters in the NBA, Robinson is expected to receive a huge pay come next offseason, when he's scheduled to become a free agent. According to a recent report by the Miami Herald, NBA officials expect Robinson to be paid $15M to $20M per year in a new deal going forward.

In the nation's capital, Moe Wagner is emerging for the Wizards. His season has been bizarre, with the German missing games while in COVID protocols, but he just put up his best performance of the season Monday night in a thrilling victory. He registered 17 points, five rebounds, two assists and two steals in a 149-146 win over the Nets.

Jordan Poole has made appearances in 16 of the Golden State Warriors' 20 contests thus far, notching 5.5 points, 1.2 rebounds and 0.9 assists in 9.5 minutes per outing. Now, it appears he's headed to Orlando for the G-League bubble and will play with Golden State's affiliate, the Santa Cruz Warriors.

Poole scored 16 points on 3-of-6 from long range Jan. 30 in a win over the Pistons, while adding two rebounds, one assist and one block in what was his final NBA game before the G-League season, which begins Feb 10 and concludes March 6.

The second-year Warrior is excited for his opportunity in Orlando, knowing he will get more time on the court than he has been receiving with the NBA club.

“I’m just ready to play 15 games in 25 days,” Poole said before the Warriors played the Pistons at home Saturday. “So that’s all I needed to hear. A lot of games? I’m straight.”
