Leave it to the NBA to create chaos on a quiet Saturday afternoon.
NBA Twitter was sent into a frenzy with news of Jimmy Butler heading to the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for a package including Dario Saric, Robert Covington and a 2022 second-round pick.
Check out some of the best reactions to the deal below.
Much-maligned 2017 No. 1 overall pick Markelle Fultz, who has struggled to perform up to expectations so far during his brief NBA career, got more shade thrown his way following the deal.
Even a few current and former members of the Philadelphia Eagles chimed in on the blockbuster.
Yooo @JimmyButler welcome to the new city. Wanna explore it together

It’s safe to say that Butler joining fellow stars Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons in Philadelphia certainly adds a new wrinkle to the Eastern Conference powerhouse hierarchy.
As this latest blockbuster proves, there’s never a dull moment in the NBA.
