Will Barton Staying In Denver

Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton is staying in the Mile High City. After Barton declined his $14.7 million player option a few weeks ago, the veteran agreed to a two-year, $32 million contract on Monday night. The deal will become official on August 6, when the free agency moratorium ends. The 10-year veteran has been […]

Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul is remaining in Arizona. After declining his $44 million player option, the veteran will agree to a four-year deal that could be worth up to $120 million.

Spencer Dinwiddie To Meet With Washington

Free-agent guard Spencer Dinwiddie will meet with the Wizards on Monday. With the Lakers, Bulls, and Heat already locking up its starting point guards, Dinwiddie is running out of options.

Kyle Lowry has agreed to terms on a three-year deal (via a sign-and-trade) with the Miami Heat on Monday. Although the signing isn't official, at least not yet, the transaction puts an end to months of speculation regarding his future in the league.

Nonetheless, head coach John Gruden remains excited about the duo of Moreau and Darren Waller in […]

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (ankle) is still working his way back from ankle surgery in January.

While his fantasy outlook is rocky based on his health ailments and competition […]

Jonah Williams Bulked Up This Offseason

Cincinnati Bengals left tackle Jonah Williams reportedly bulked up during the offseason. Currently weighing in at around 315 pounds, a 10-pound increase from last season, the 23-year-old hopes the added bulk will make him better equipped to handle opposing defenders. With Joe Burrow and Joe Mixon both suffering season-ending injuries during the 2020-21 campaign, Cincy's […]

Joe Mixon Reportedly In The Best Shape Of His Career

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon has been impressive during training camp.

With an improved offensive line, the return of Frank Pollack, and the departure of Giovani Bernard, […]

Mike Gesicki Lands On COVID-19 List

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki (illness) was placed on the COVID-19 injured list on Sunday. Gesicki, along with co-offensive coordinator George Godsey, tested positive for the Coronavirus.

Geoff Hartlieb Recalled From Syracuse

New York Mets relief pitcher Geoff Hartlieb was called up from Triple-A on Sunday. With the Metropolitans dealing with injuries throughout the rotation, the 27-year-old will provide some much-needed depth moving ahead.

Andrew McCutchen Has MRI

Philadelphia 76ers outfielder Andrew McCutchen (knee) recently had an MRI. According to skipper Joe Girardi, the team is still awaiting the results, so there isn't a timetable for his return.

Michael Brantley Exits Against San Fran

Houston Astros outfielder Michael Brantley (ankle) exited Sunday's matchup against the Giants. The 34-year-old was experiencing discomfort in his right ankle, and he was removed in the fourth inning as a result. Brantley has been on a roll, batting .341 throughout the last few weeks, so hopefully, he won't miss any time moving ahead, although […]

Norvel Pelle Waived By The Knicks

The Knicks waived center Norvel Pelle on Saturday. The 28-year-old has played for four teams during his brief tenure in the league. Although he had flashes of efficiency during some of his sporadic appearances, he will need a consistent role to become relevant on the fantasy end, which isn't likely to come anytime soon. However, […]

Knicks Pick Up Option On Mitchell Robinson

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson had his $1.8 million player option exercised by the team. Robinson, who was selected with the No. 36 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft, averaged 8.3 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks last season. However, foot and wrist issues limited him to only 31 games. While the 23-year-old isn't […]

Guard Cory Joseph was waived by the Pistons and is now a free agent. The veteran began the 2020-21 campaign in Sacramento and was ultimately dealt to Detroit, where he played 19 games and averaged 12 points, 5.5 assists, and 1.2 steals. While it's probable Joseph will find work before the season begins in October, […]

Heat Decline Option on Andre Iguodala

Forward Andre Iguodala had his $15 million player option declined by Miami on Sunday, making him a free agent. The 37-year-old has built a reputation for his defensive prowess over the years. However, a reduction in minutes in South Beach significantly lowered what was left of his fantasy season. Nonetheless, he will likely draw interest […]

Pelicans Extend Qualifying Offer To Josh Hart

New Orleans extended a qualifying offer to guard Josh Hart, making him a restricted free agent. The price ranger was around $5.2 million, and it would allow the Pelicans to match offers from other clubs when negotiations begin on August 2. The 26-year-old was one of the most effective options in the league off the […]

Lonzo Ball Receives Qualifying Offer

Free-agent guard Lonzo Ball received a $14.3 million qualifying offer from the Pelicans.

Josh Richardson Heading To Boston

The Mavericks traded forward Josh Richardson to the Celtics, who also picked up his $11.6 million player option. The 27-year-old averaged only 12.1 points throughout 59 games in Dallas last season, his worst scoring output since the 2016-2017 campaign. Although Richardson may get a substantial role in Boston this year, especially if the team can't […]

Bobby Portis Declines Player Option

Former Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis declined his $3.8 million player option on Saturday, making him an unrestricted free agent. The 26-year-old was invaluable while filling in for Giannis Antetokounmpo during his bouts of injury throughout the season and was also instrumental in helping the team capture the NBA Championship. He averaged 8.8 points and […]

Mike Conley On Utah’s Radar

Free-agent guard Mike Conley remains on the Jazz's wish list heading into the regular season.

Brining Conley back is considered a "top priority" for the team, although it may take […]

Thomas Bryant To Miss The Start Of The Season

Washington Wizards center Thomas Bryant (knee) will miss the beginning of the 2021-22 NBA campaign. The 24-year-old suffered a torn left ACL early last season, which was unfortunate considering he was averaging a career-high 14.3 points while shooting nearly 43 percent from deep. However, even when healthy, his days as an everyday fantasy option are […]

Joel Embiid Will Not Need Surgery

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) will not require surgery heading into the regular season in October. The MVP favorite suffered a torn meniscus in his right knee during the Sixers postseason matchup with the Wizards.

Clippers Want Reggie Jackson To Return

Free Agent guard Reggie Jackson will draw plenty of interest from multiple clubs heading into the season.

Kawhi Leonard Could Miss More Time Than Expected

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) is expected to miss time during the 2021-22 campaign.

Leonard suffered a torn ACL during the postseason, requiring surgery, […]

Serge Ibaka Picks Up Player Option

Los Angeles Clippers forward Serge Ibaka exercised his player option on Saturday. The veteran will make nearly $10 million during the 2021-22 campaign by picking up the extra year. However, a back issue relegated him to only 41 games while averaging 11.1 points, 6.7 boards, and 1.1 blocks last season. After having surgery this offseason, […]

Derrick Favors Heading To OKC

OKC acquired forward Derrick Favors from Utah on Friday. In addition, the Thunder will receive a future first-round pick in exchange for a 2027 second-round selection and cash.
