U P D A T E S !​

Giannis Antetokounmpo said that he wouldn't rule out signing with the Chicago Bulls once his deal is up with the Milwaukee Bucks.
“Everybody would love to play for Chicago. Down the line, you never know. Maybe I play for Chicago. But right now, I'm committed to Milwaukee.”

KD’s former teammate Andre Iguodala recently spoke about the Kevin Durant trade saga and he thinks that Durant should stay in Brooklyn.
“I think he should stay in Brooklyn, it’s such a big market, it’s good for the game and just figure out how to make it work like everybody grow up and make it work. That’s how I feel about the situation.”
“This is a situation where it’s either, look, man just come out here and play or don’t play because you got 4 years, we got you for a while so it’s not like you’re on an expiring contract and then you can just take off a year and we just give up a year. Like he’s getting older and time is everything.”

To complete the five-game slate on Christmas Day, the Bucks are set to face the Celtics at TD Garden, per Shams Charania.

The Knicks and Jazz recently re-engaged in trade talks centered on Donovan Mitchell.
After several weeks of no conversations, the New York Knicks and Utah Jazz recently re-engaged in trade talks centered on Donovan Mitchell, league sources tell The Athletic.
There is no traction between the two teams on a deal, and no Mitchell trade is imminent for the Jazz. The Charlotte Hornets and Washington Wizards are also among the teams pursuing Mitchell, sources said.

The Utah Jazz have rejected New York Knicks offer for Julius Randle, they want RJ Barrett and six future first-round picks instead.
"Utah didn't want Julius Randle, from what I'm told. They don't want him. The Knicks were willing to unload him. They want RJ Barrett. They want at least 6 1st-round picks," according to Stephen A Smith.

The Los Angeles Lakers have been willing to include both of their first round-picks in a Kyrie Irving deal but the Brooklyn Nets are NOT interested.
REPORT: The Brooklyn Nets want ‘win-now talent’ in return to part with Kyrie Irving, per Marc Stein.
“The Nets’ current stance, sources say, is that they are unwilling to send out Irving in a trade if the deal solely brings back future assets.”

The Los Angeles Lakers have announced that they will retire Pau Gasol’s No. 16 on March 7, 2023.
Gasol with the Lakers was a 2x NBA champion, 3x NBA All-Star and 3x All-NBA. No. 16 will be raised to the rafters beside 24.

LeBron James has agreed to a two-year, $97.1 million contract extension with the Los Angeles Lakers.
This makes LeBron James the highest-earning player in NBA history with $532M in guaranteed money.

Stephen Curry’s SC30, Inc. company filed trademark paperwork for the phrase “Night Night” — to be used, as expected, in footwear & apparel.

The Utah Jazz and New York Knicks are in discussions on a trade that would send Donovan Mitchell to New York.
New York made a recent offer of Evan Fournier, Obi Toppin, additional salary and two unprotected first-round draft picks (five total). The Jazz’s asking price has been more significant than that.

The Memphis Grizzlies have shown interest in trading for Kevin Durant, per Shams Charania.
The Grizzlies have five first-round picks to theoretically utilize in a Kevin Durant trade, but sources say that they will not make Jaren Jackson Jr. or Desmond Bane available.

The Atlanta Hawks offered John Collins, De'Andre Hunter and a draft pick to the Brooklyn Nets for Kevin Durant.
NETS DECLINED.

Haslem plans to retire after the 2022-23 season and will have his jersey retired sometime after that.

Oklahoma City Thunder No. 2 pick Chet Holmgren will miss the 2022-2023 season with a Lisfranc injury to his right foot.
Holmgren suffered the injury while guarding LeBron James in a Pro-Am game in Seattle on Saturday.
Holmgren joins a list of high draft picks who lost their rookie years to injuries, including Joel Embiid, Ben Simmons and Blake Griffin.

The Utah Jazz are trading Patrick Beverley to the Los Angeles Lakers for Talen Horton-Tucker and Stanley Johnson.
In 2019, Patrick Beverley said he’ll never forget the Lakers trading him to Miami and then Miami cutting him, shortly after LeBron James’ arrival to the team.
“I played with Miami, with LeBron and they cut me. I got drafted by the Lakers, they traded me to Miami. Bron got there, they cut me. I remember it like it was yesterday, so yeah, it’s a chip on my shoulder,” Beverley said.
Beverley was drafted 42nd overall by the Lakers in the 2009 Draft and traded him to Miami, but he never played a single game for them. He ended up in Houston years later, where he made his NBA debut.
Patrick Beverley once said that the Los Angeles Lakers would make the Western Conference Finals under his Leadership.
He stated that he would love to play with a great" like LeBron James and "be able to pick his brain." He also said he would enjoy playing alongside Russell Westbrook.

Who would've thought that this day would come?
Russell Westbrook & Patrick Beverley had beef for years. Now, they're teammates with the Los Angeles Lakers.

U P D A T E S ! ​

FROM THE CHOSEN ONE, TO THE CHOSEN SONS.
LeBron James and sons, Bronny & Bryce are the cover of Sports Illustrated for October 2022 issue.
20 years apart. Time flies.

LeBron James says he’d ‘definitely’ be looking at who has 1st-round picks from 2024 to 2027 because of chance to play with his sons.
Bronny James could be a candidate to be a one-and-done player if he decides to attend college, which means he’d be eligible for the 2024 NBA Draft while Bryce James is a very solid shooter and has the length to become an elite player some day. He’s grown a ton over the last few years and is now taller than his older brother.

REPORT: The New York Knicks and Utah Jazz don't rule out restarting Donovan Mitchell trade talks.​

Neither Utah nor New York is ruling out restarting the talks before the start of training camps in late September, sources said.

BREAKING: RJ Barrett is finalizing a four-year rookie extension with the New York Knicks that could be worth up to $120 million, per Adrian Wojnarowski. ​

The Three Largest Contract in New York Knicks history
RJ Barrett: four-year, $120M
Julius Randle: four-year, $117M
Jalen Brunson: four-year, $104M


Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson on his Philippine home debut:
“It feels great. I always hear them even though I’m on the other side of the world, I hear them through social media.”
“I know Filipinos got my back and I got theirs as well ... We’re building something special so let's get it.”
Clarkson averaged 25 PPG, 5.4 RPG, 6.5 APG, 45.2% FG, 41.2% 3P in the 4th window of #FIBAWC Asian Qualifiers for the Philippines.

Collin Sexton is signing a four-year, $72 million contract via sign-and-trade to the Utah Jazz.

REPORT: Jayson Tatum [Jordan] and Ja Morant [Nike] are expected to receive their own signature sneaker in 2023, from their respective brands. ​

The Los Angeles Lakers have hesitated to trade their 2027 and 2029 first-round picks in any deal that doesn’t make them serious contenders for the next two seasons.
The Lakers might still prefer a Buddy Hield-Myles Turner trade costing two firsts than any bundle they’re able to cook up with the Utah Jazz.

Stephen Curry says if he would play for any other NBA team besides the Golden State Warriors, it would be the Charlotte Hornets.
“All I would say is if there was a team that I did want to play for that was not named the Warriors, that would be it [the Hornets].”

Lonzo Ball is expected to MISS training camp and is doubtful for the start of the regular season with lingering pain and discomfort following knee surgery in January.

The Phoenix Suns are interested in trading for Bojan Bogdanovic, along with few other teams, including the Lakers, per John Gambadoro.
Phoenix reportedly reached out to the Jazz about the 33-year-old forward following Utah’s trade of Donovan Mitchell to Cleveland. Bogdanovic is entering a contract year after scoring 18.1 PPG in 69 starts last season.

The Los Angeles Lakers are monitoring the “spare part” veterans left over on the Utah Jazz’s roster such as Mike Conley Jr., Bojan Bogdanovic and Jordan Clarkson for a potential deal before the season begins.

After receiving further evaluation, Danilo Gallinari has been diagnosed with a torn ACL in his left knee.

Players who might still get traded:​

Russell Westbrook
Myles Turner
Buddy Hield
Bojan Bogdanovic
Jordan Clarkson
Malik Beasley
Mike Conley
Terrence Ross

N E W S / UPDATES ! ​

Giannis Antetokounmpo, Luka Doncic and Nikola Jokic were DOMINANT in the group phase of FIBA EuroBasket 2022.

Three Best International Players right now.

Gary Payton II recently revealed that he was once criticized by his father for being a ‘sorry-ass’ basketball player.
“And then one summer, my dad told me I wasn’t a good basketball player. Ha, he told me I was a sorry-ass basketball player ... And he told me to get a job or get a scholarship because he wasn’t going to pay for me to get to school.”
Ever since that moment, GP2 never stopped grinding. And now he’s an NBA champion and just recently signed a $28 million contract.
In a recent interview with coach George Karl, Gary Payton II said his decision to leave the Golden State Warriors simply was a financial one.
“For the money. I had to take the money. ... It didn't work out. I would love to go back to Golden State, but it didn't work out. Just the timing and everything. Just a business deal, and I just had to take the money.”

Dirk Nowitzki defended Giannis Antetokounmpo over harsh and controversial comments from Gilbert Arenas.
“He is one of the best players in the world and has shown it as a champion and an MVP. He is the first one to tell you you can always improve, but if you look at what he is done already at such a young age, he is one of the best.”

BREAKING: Maxi Kleber has agreed to a three-year, $33 million contract extension with the Dallas Mavericks. ​

REPORT: The Milwaukee Bucks, Memphis Grizzlies, Sacramento Kings and Toronto Raptors are among the teams that have shown interest in Jordan Clarkson. ​

Luka Doncic admitted that there are better individual defenders in the NBA, but the team defense in Europe is more impressive.
He explained that this is happening because of the international basketall rules that benefit different tactics.
“Because of the smaller court, you don’t have the three-second violation. So I think the team defense is very important,” Doncic explained.

REPORT: The NBA is planning to announce expansion to Seattle and Las Vegas during the Clippers’ preseason games in Seattle, and Lakers’ preseason games in Las Vegas. ​

U P D A T E S ! ​

The New York Knicks and Dallas Mavericks are interested in Bojan Bogdanovic.

Manu Ginobili reflects on his 16-year career with the San Antonio Spurs and he has nothing but love for his teammates and coach.
“I’ve been incredibly lucky to have played for the best coach ever, best power forward, multiple All-Stars. We created something very special. It’s something that doesn't happen. Four guys for the same team playing 15 years together and winning four championships.”
Ginobili will be enshrined in the Basketball Hall of Fame tomorrow. Congratulations!

REPORT: The Boston Celtics appear to have no interest in Carmelo Anthony, per Brian Robb.​

According to Robb, apparent rumors of the Boston Celtics’ interest in Carmelo Anthony appear to be inaccurate, with the team seemingly content with what they already have available.

REPORT: The Utah Jazz are seeking a first-round pick apiece for Bojan Bogdanovic, Jordan Clarkson and Malik Beasley, per Zach Lowe.​

“The second package is Clarkson, Bogdanovic, Beasley. From what I’ve been told around the league, the Jazz feel all three of those guys are worth a first-round pick. If that’s the case, then there’s no deal, that’s out,” Lowe said.

BREAKING: The NBA and NBPA are still finalizing the In-Season Tournament concept with plans to include prizes for the final eight teams, per Shams Charania. ​

Robert Williams III underwent surgery on his left knee and is expected to return to basketball activities in 8-12 weeks.

Andre Iguodala has announced that he is returning for his final season, as he signed a one-year veteran minimum deal with the Golden State Warriors.

The Golden State Warriors will meet with Jordan Poole’s representation to discuss a massive contract extension in October.

OFFICIAL : The Boston Celtics have suspended head coach Ime Udoka for the entire 2022-23 season.​

The Celtics say they’ll decide on if Ime Udoka’s suspension will be extended beyond this season “at a later date”.
Celtics coach Ime Udoka is expected to be suspended for the entire 2022-23 season for his role in a consensual relationship with a female staff member.
Boston Celtics coach Ime Udoka is facing “possible disciplinary action” – including a significant suspension – for an unspecified violation of organizational guidelines.
Discussions are ongoing within the Celtics on a final determination.
Celtics coach Ime Udoka had an improper intimate and consensual relationship with a female member of the team staff. It’s been deemed a violation of franchise’s code of conduct.

The San Antonio Spurs could offer a package involving Josh Richardson, Doug McDermott and/or Jakob Poeltl amid interest in a Russell Westbrook trade.
The San Antonio Spurs were recently floated as a team that is still open to trading for Westbrook. McDermott, Richardson and Poeltl are a few interesting names to consider.

Khris Middleton is still ‘undecided’ about picking up his $40.4M player option for 2023-24 season.
Middleton: “I think everybody knows deep down that I want to stay. But also, you know it’s a business. Things change, things happen. You just never know. For sure I would love to stay.”

Lakers best and last offer could be Westbrook and a 1st round pick for Buddy Hield.

With Robert Williams III undergoing a left knee procedure ahead of training camp, the Boston Celtics could view Dwight Howard and LaMarcus Aldridge as possible replacements.
The Celtics are now left very thin in their frontcourt. Al Horford will likely be the team’s starting center to begin the season.
