An unemployed Robin Lopez sat courtside and read a book during a game after the Bucks traded him

The NBA trade deadline was dragging along, and then, BOOM! The trades started happening, moving players all over the league. But Robin Lopez was so unimpressed with the whole ordeal he was spotted reading mid-game after being traded and immediately waived by his new team.

If you were wondering why the NBA trade deadline was so quiet, you weren’t the only one. (We were too). Yet, pretty soon, trades started flying, including the Milwaukee Bucks trading Robin Lopez to the Sacramento Kings.

Lopez didn’t spend long with Sacramento. He was waived, which freed him up Thursday to watch the Bucks (and twin brother Brook) play the Minnesota Timberwolves. However, Lopez was seemingly so over his day and his previous employers that he decided to crack open a book.
