Nope, it was officially announced by the team yesterday.
So then I go back to the heart of my previous question, when are teams allowed to trade picks post trade deadline? Is it after the regular season? Or is there never a restriction on trading picks and the trade deadline is only relevant to active rosters? I ask because this goes counter to my previous understanding that teams must wait until their season (including playoffs) is over.
It looks like the answer is right after the regular season is finished as long as it doesn't involve anybody on a playoff roster with some other restrictions (for example, any player who has a contract potentially ending this summer cannot be traded right now).
