New York Mets catcher Francisco Alvarez is reportedly being promoted to Triple-A. This is exciting news as Alvarez is currently the top catching prospect in baseball.

P.J. Tucker Signs With 76ers

The Philadelphia 76ers have signed veteran forward P.J. Tucker to a three-year deal. The Sixers were viewed as the frontrunners for Tucker and that appears to be correct.

Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo has agreed to a deal to remain with the organization. Oladipo has reportedly signed a one-year deal worth $11 million for next season.

Thaddeus Young Returns To Toronto

The Toronto Raptors have decided to bring back forward Thaddeus Young on a two-year deal. The veteran forward will get $16 million over the next two seasons to stay in Toronto.

Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate has agreed to a new deal with the organization. Tate has reportedly signed a three-year $21 million deal with the Rockets.

Malcolm Brogdon Viewed As Sixth Man

Boston Celtics guard Malcolm Brogdon is expected to come off the bench next season. As expected, Brogdon is viewed as the sixth man off the bench.

Despite that, the Bucks felt comfortable enough to give Ingles a $6.5 million deal. He'll be a nice piece as depth once he is able to […]

Kevin Knox II Signs With Pistons

The Detroit Pistons have agreed to a two-year deal with forward Kevin Knox II. This is a low-risk signing for the Pistons since they do need depth on the wings. Although, it's unlikely that Knox comes out and becomes a reliable contributor in his fifth season. The once top prospect is shooting a rough 36.9 […]

Ricky Rubio Returning To Cavaliers

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ricky Rubio has reportedly agreed to a three-year deal with the organization. He is currently recovering from an ACL injury that could hold him out until 2023.

Robin Lopez Joins Cavaliers

The Cleveland Cavaliers have agreed to a one-year deal with center Robin Lopez. The veteran big man was solid depth for the Orlando Magic last season.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant has agreed to a massive extension with the organization.

Karl-Anthony Towns Signs Super-Max Deal

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns has agreed to a four-year, $224 million super-max extension. There is no surprise here, as Towns is a cornerstone piece on this roster.

Otto Porter Jr. Joins Raptors

The Toronto Raptors have signed forward Otto Porter Jr. to a two-year deal. The veteran forward was reportedly likely to re-sign with the Golden State Warriors. Instead, Porter has decided to leave the defending champs and join the fairly strong Raptors roster. It's uncertain where Porter stands in terms of playing time. Pascal Siakam, Thaddeus […]

Jusuf Nurkic Staying In Portland

Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic has decided to sign a new deal with the organization. He missed two months last season due to a foot injury, but was effective when healthy.
