Now check out what happened to all the players and picks in the Carmelo Anthony trade.

This pick was sent to the Cavs, along with Isaiah Thomas, forward Jae Crowder, and rookie center Ante Zizic for Kyrie Irving and now the trade is finally history, for the Celtics and Nets, at least.

Wallace played two seasons with the Celtics as a backup and was eventually traded multiple times and waived in roster moves in 2015. He now runs an annual basketball camp in Alabama and is a diehard New England Patriots fan.

Gerald Wallace was also traded to the Celtics. He was a former All-Star who had just completed his 14th season in the NBA, his second with the Nets. He averaged 8 points and 5 rebounds per game in the previous season as a starting forward.

Joseph played three seasons in France and now plays in Italy and averages 8 points per game.

Kris Humphries was one of the bigger names traded to the Celtics. He had just completed his ninth season in the NBA and had averaged 5.8 points per game as a part-time starter.

Bogans played just six games with the Celtics the following season. After being traded twice in 2014 for roster purposes and later waived by the 76ers, Bogans walked away from the game, but re-appeared this summer with the Trail Blazers' Summer League team.

The Celtics did receive some players, including Keith Bogans who was a 32-year-old who was a part-time starter in his one season with the Nets.

Vezenkov is a 6-9 forward who is considered an elite shooter. He will continue to play with Barcelona in Spain for now.

They also received a 2017 2nd round draft pick, No. 57 overall. It was used to select Aleksandar Vezenkov.
