After the Raptors waived Spencer Dinwiddie following Thursday's trade with the Nets, the Lakers are in hot pursuit of the guard.

ESPN reports the Lakers are "among the front-runners" for the 30-year-old, who is from Los Angeles.

Dinwiddie, who saw his role decrease this year in his second stint in Brooklyn, is averaging 12.6 points and six assists this season.

The Grizzlies waived Victor Oladipo after Thursday's NBA trade deadline, according to The Athletic.

Oladipo, who hasn't played at all this season because of a patellar tendon injury, began the season with the Rockets and was traded to Memphis last week.

PJ Tucker will stay with the Clippers after all.

Unable to find a trade for Tucker, the forward will not request a buyout, according to Bleacher Report's Chris Haynes.

The 38-year-old has been out of the Clippers' rotation and has not played since Nov. 27.

The NBA world doesn’t know what to do when the Knicks are making competent moves.

After years of ill-fated signings and trades by hapless executives, the Knicks are suddenly being celebrated for their front-office decisions led by team president Leon Rose.

That trend continued ahead of Thursday’s NBA trade deadline when the Knicks acquired Alec Burks and Bojan Bogdanovic from the Pistons for Quentin Grimes, Evan Fournier, Malachi Flynn, Ryan Arcidiacono and two future second-round picks.

The Warriors snuck a deal in before the NBA trade deadline, trading guard Cory Joseph and cash to the Pacers for a second-round pick, according to The Athletic.

Joseph, 32, played for the Pacers from 2017-19.

One of the biggest names on the board is staying put.

Dejounte Murray's name was flying around in trade rumors over recent weeks, but Atlanta is set on keeping the guard.

ESPN reported the news that Murray will not be traded prior to the deadline.

Murray, 27, is having a career year averaging 21.4 points and 5.2 assists per game.

Alec Burks already is familiar to Knicks fans, having previously played for the team for two seasons from 2020-22.

But here are six things to know about Bojan Bogdanovic, who was acquired with Burks ahead of Thursday’s NBA trade deadline from the Pistons in a trade for Quentin Grimes, Evan Fournier, Malachi Flynn, Ryan Arcidiacono and two second-round picks, a source confirmed to The Post’s Stefan Bondy.

1. The Croatian forward played the first three-plus seasons of his NBA career with the Nets, making second-team All-Rookie in 2014-15, when he averaged 9.0 points per game in 78 appearances for Brooklyn.

It seems like Lakers fans will have to wait until summer for a big move.

Chris Haynes of TNT shed some insight on their potential plans.

It seems like the Lakers front office would rather hold their chips -- opting to make a bigger move this summer.

Perhaps they didn't like who was on the big board, or they're content to ride this roster into the playoffs.

Either way, it sounds like the Lakers could make a big splash this summer, armed with three first-round picks.

The Sixers are making another move.

Patrick Beverley seemingly announced his own trade to the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Bucks are sending the Sixers Cam Payne and a 2027 second-round pick as part of the deal.

Beverley's gotten an increased workload with the banged up Sixers over the past eight games where he's averaged 10.5 points-per-game.

In another trade deadline shakeup, the Pistons have released 2020 first-round pick Killian Hayes, according to Shams Charania.

Hayes scored eight points in 28 minutes against the Kings Wednesday.

Hayes flashed some potential last season where he averaged 10.3 points-per-game, but has never found a consistent role.

He may be worth a flier for a team looking for a reclamation project.

The Mavericks are loading up.

Dallas has acquired P.J. Washington from the Charlotte Hornets for Grant Williams, Seth Curry and a first-round pick, the Athletic's Shams Charania reports.

Washington's had a solid year averaging 13.6 points and 5.3 rebounds per game.

Williams, 25, has benefited from an uptick in minutes this season, averaging a career high 8.1 points.

The Nets found a trading partner for Spencer Dinwiddie, dealing for Dennis Schroder in a swap of 30-year-old point guards.

Veteran Thad Young is also coming in the same trade, first reported by ESPN and confirmed by The Post.

Dinwiddie had been Brooklyn’s starting point guard since arriving from Dallas in the Kyrie Irving deal at last year’s trade deadline, but he’d essentially lost his preferred spot to Ben Simmons at the beginning of the season and only got it back through the Simmons’ injuries.

He also didn’t get the long-term extension from the Nets he wanted, and admitted he wasn’t part of their rebuilding plans.
