SALT LAKE CITY — The NBA's trade deadline expired Thursday afternoon amid a relatively insane flurry of deals across the league, including for the hometown Utah Jazz. Here is a list of the current details known, though keep in mind that many of these are based on unconfirmed reports and could fluctuate in the coming hours and days.

Jazz trade Enes Kanter and Steve Novak to Oklahoma City, Thunder trade Kendrick Perkins and Grant Jerrett to Utah and Reggie Jackson to Detroit, Pistons trade Kyle Singler and DJ Augistin to Oklahoma City.

There will also be several picks involved in this deal: the Jazz will reportedly receive a first-round pick (likely from OKC in either 2017 or 2018), a second-round pick, and international prospect Tibor Pleiss. The Jazz are expected to buy out Perkins' contract immediately to remove his money from their cap.

Bucks trade Brandon Knight to Phoenix, Suns trade Miles Plumlee and Tyler Ennis to Milwaukee, 76ers trade Michael Carter-Williams to Milwaukee. Philadelphia also receives picks.

The Suns made multiple large moves on the day, acquiring Knight to play alongside Eric Bledsoe. Philly fills what's become their de facto role as the vessel for other teams' deals, acquiring picks that aren't yet concretely reported. Milwaukee gets a young PG in Carter-Williams plus some valuable depth.

T-Wolves trade Thaddeus Young to Brooklyn for Kevin Garnett.

KG will return to his first NBA home in this deal, though the price for Minnesota seems quite high. Young will give Brooklyn depth at the big positions as they struggle with injuries and age.

Blazers trade Thomas Robinson, Victor Claver, Will Barton and 2016 (lottery protected) first-round pick to Denver for Arron Afflalo and Alonzo Gee.

Denver followed through on much of their speculated fire sale, getting several young pieces in exchange for the key piece, Afflalo. Arron will bring some much-needed depth at the wing to the Blazers as they make their playoff push and beyond.

Suns trade Goran Dragic and Zoran Dragic to Miami for Danny Granger, Justin Hamilton and two first-round picks.

Goran Dragic reportedly informed Phoenix he wouldn't re-sign there this following summer, and the Suns responded by sending him to Miami, one of his preferred destinations, along with his twin brother Zoran. Pieces from New Orleans, including possibly John Salmons, may also be included in the deal along with Shawne Williams from Miami.

Celtics trade Marcus Thornton and 2016 first-round pick to Phoenix plus Tayshaun Prince to Detroit, Suns trade Isaiah Thomas to Boston, Pistons trade Jonas Jerebko and Luigi Datome to Boston.

Another piece of Phoenix's fire sale lands them a bench piece plus another valuable 2016 pick for their pseudo-rebuild. Boston gets a proven point guard who can score, and Detroit gets back Prince for a hopeful eventual retirement in the city he achieved NBA glory in years ago.

Rockets trade Alexey Shved and two second-round picks to New York for Pablo Prigioni.

Houston gets a bit of depth at the point guard spot behind Patrick Beverley, and New York shores up what appears to be a full-scale teardown under Phil Jackson.

76ers trade KJ McDaniels to Houston for Isaiah Canaan and a second-round pick.

This would be a surprising move coming from anyone but Philly, who appear to value prospects far differently from the rest of the league. McDaniels is a young first-round pick from 2014 with massive upside, but will be an unrestricted free-agent following the season due to a sparingly-used contract type bestowed upon him by the 6ers this summer.

Kings trade Ramon Sessions to Washington for Andre Miller.

Former University of Utah product Miller is reunited with former coach George Karl in Sacramento, who were getting nothing out of Sessions. The move is curious for Washington, though Miller had been relegated to third point guard duties there as of late.

Nuggets trade JaVale McGee, protected 2015 first round pick, and rights to Chukwudiebere Maduabum to Philadelphia for the rights to Cenk Akyol.

This was a salary dump, plain and simple. Denver gets McGee's large contract off their books, and Philadelphia, with their intentionally-carved cap space, can absorb it without breaking a sweat.
