TJ Warren hasn’t scored an NBA point in over one and a half years. The newest Brooklyn Nets signing has been plagued by a foot injury that’s kept him out of action since December of 2020. Injuries obviously suck and Warren missing out on what’s turned out to be virtually two whole seasons is truly […]

The Utah Jazz has been one of the most talked-about teams in the NBA offseason. After yet another unsuccessful playoff run, the Jazz decided to blow up the team.

The New York Knicks struck fast in 2022 NBA free agency, stealing Jalen Brunson away from the Dallas Mavericks and nabbing Isaiah Hartenstein away from the Los Angeles Clippers. The Knicks also agreed to terms on a new deal with free agent center Mitchell Robinson. That’s three significant moves to start free agency. Brunson gives […]

The Denver Nuggets are looking to round out their roster via 2022 NBA free agency. Nuggets GM Calvin Booth has now given head coach Michael Malone a pretty good squad. Denver has a variety of options to mix and match, especially with the acquisition of Bruce Brown. This was an important coup for the Nuggets. […]

The Brooklyn Nets are being patient with the Kevin Durant trade situation. The Nets are in no rush to make a trade even after his request, because they want to make sure they get this right. There’s even a report out there suggesting Brooklyn could drag this out until training camp. We’ll see if that […]

The Milwaukee Bucks wasted no time getting busy during 2022 NBA free agency, and they’re not done yet. The Bucks made numerous moves when NBA free agency started last Thursday. Nearly all of them were centered on keeping key role players, which was the major concern during the post-draft depth chart, while also adding swingman […]

The Dallas Mavericks […]

The Boston Celtics can still make a big splash in 2022 NBA free agency. Bigger than just Danilo Gallinari at least. Remember that in the city of Boston, the threshold for success is rather high. That is why, following the Celtics’ finest season in more than a decade, the topic of discussion has now shifted […]

The Los Angeles Lakers have reshaped their roster around LeBron James and Anthony Davis for next season, constructing a younger roster in contrast to the one they had in 2021-22. They drafted Max Christie in the second round and signed Scottie Pippen Jr. and Cole Swider to two-way contracts. In free agency, the Lakers have […]

There’s no in-depth explanation necessary to understand why it’s virtually guaranteed that Kevin Durant won’t be returning to the Golden State Warriors. The widespread assumption that he’d grown irreversibly crossways with franchise pillars after bailing on Golden State three years ago was always naive. Indeed, Marcus Thompson II of The Athletic reported on Sunday that […]

The Los Angeles Clippers lost a key piece of their bench last week as big man Isaiah Hartenstein secured a two-year, $16 million deal with the New York Knicks. That ended his short spell in Southern California, featuring in 68 games for the Clips in his lone season with the organization. On Monday, Hartenstein took […]

The Dallas Mavericks had an impressive 2021-22 season. The Mavs created an identity and, led by the strong play of Luka Doncic, made it to the Western Conference Finals. The 23-year-old still is early in his career arc and has cemented himself as the face of the franchise. Even with Doncic in hand, Dallas has […]

The Golden State Warriors are an extremely talented team. The trio of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green has now won four NBA titles in the past eight seasons.

The Miami Heat are coming off an impressive 2021-22 season in which they fell just one win short of making the NBA Finals.

While they may not be making major headlines, the Philadelphia 76ers have had a solid offseason thus far. Highlighted by the draft-night trade for De’Anthony Melton and the free-agent addition of PJ Tucker, Daryl Morey has done an excellent job improving the Sixers bench unit. The lack of talent in the second unit has been […]

The Minnesota Timberwolves shocked the NBA world by giving up a monster haul to get Rudy Gobert from the Utah Jazz. The blockbuster deal now creates one of the most intriguing frontcourts in the NBA featuring Gobert and Karl-Anthony Towns. The fit will be questioned, but there’s certainly a lot of talent there. Now the […]

NBA free agency hasn’t been very kind to the Dallas Mavericks of late. One of the biggest deals in the market involved Jalen Brunson, who decided to turn his back on the Mavs to sign with the New York Knicks on a massive new deal. This, along with a few other developments that have not […]

The Dallas Mavericks lost an integral part of their roster when Jalen Brunson decided to sign with the New York Knicks via free agency.

After a rather eventful start to NBA free agency on June 30, things have seemingly quieted down with just a few signings and trades here and there. Apparently, Kevin Durant’s trade demand had a role in that. According to NBA insider Keith Smith, some free agents currently available are waiting to see what happens with […]

The Toronto Raptors were not among the more aggressive spenders over the first few days of this year’s NBA free agency period. They did shift much of their attention to keeping a pair of players, including Chris Boucher. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski noted on Thursday that Boucher agreed to a three-year, $35.25 million deal to stay […]

Kevin Durant is looking to leave the Brooklyn Nets this offseason via trade. The only destination that is not in play, reportedly, is the Golden State Warriors.

The Chicago Bulls have made a key addition to the backcourt, signing veteran point guard Goran Dragic to a one-year deal in 2022 NBA free agency. The deal was first reported by Jordan Schultz, who was informed of the deal by Dragic’s agent Bill Duffy of BDA Sports. Breaking: PG Goran Dragic is signing a […]

Just two seasons removed from being a top-four team in the Eastern Conference, the Indiana Pacers are all but revving up for a total rebuild.

The San Antonio Spurs have blown up their roster, but that doesn’t mean they have to be awful this coming season. After the historic deal that sent Dejounte Murray to the Atlanta Hawks, it is crystal clear that the Spurs are committed to a total rebuild of their roster. This was further underscored by the […]

The Brooklyn Nets are in complete chaos in the 2022 offseason. Their two biggest stars in Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving have both requested to be traded away from the team. It’s a mighty fall from grace for a team that was billed as the top dog in the league prior to the start of […]

Stephen Curry is living his best life. While other teams are toiling away wondering about the next big move they need to make to get over the hump, the Golden State Warriors are sitting pretty with an offseason to relish their most recent championship. Curry was the embodiment of being carefree as he took in […]

The Utah Jazz have officially pulled the plug on the Donovan Mitchell-Rudy Gobert partnership after they traded the latter to the Minnesota Timberwolves. In return, the Jazz got a king’s ransom of picks (four first-round picks, a pick swap and recent first-round pick Walker Kessler) and an army of players. In the wake of this […]

The Phoenix Suns seemed to grab pole position in the chase for Kevin Durant.

However, even with pieces such as Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, and a Deandre Ayton sign-and-trade, […]

With Kevin Durant asking out of Brooklyn, there’s no use hiding anything anymore.

Kevon Looney is coming back to The Bay, Gary Payton II got his bag elsewhere and Otto Porter is taking his talents north of the border.

The Charlotte Hornets have had an eventful start to their NBA offseason. First, Charlotte selected center Mark Williams with the 15th pick in the NBA Draft in June.

The trajectory of the entire NBA — very much including the Los Angeles Lakers — was profoundly altered the moment Kevin Durant requested a trade from the Brooklyn Nets. Even though a Durant-for-Anthony Davis swap is reportedly not on the table, the superstar’s impending departure instantly placed a Kyrie Irving-for-Russell Westbrook blockbuster very much back […]
