Brooklyn Nets forward Nicolas Claxton (knee) is in danger of missing the beginning of the regular season.

Daniel Theis Could Get Minutes At Power Forward

Boston Celtics center Daniel Theis is expected to see some playing time at power forward this season, according to head coach Brad Stevens.

Sacramento Kings center Hassan Whiteside (calf) is currently listed as day-to-day and could miss the preseason opener, according to head coach Luke Walton. He suffered a mild calf strain, but the organization doesn't believe it'll linger into the regular season. The Kings will have an interesting battle at the center spot with Richaun Holmes and […]

Austin Rivers Limited During Practice

New York Knicks guard Austin Rivers (groin) was limited during practice on Monday. He pulled his groin and is currently listed as day-to-day going forward. Rivers has two weeks to recover before the beginning of the regular season. The Knicks have a crowded backcourt, but Rivers should find himself with a significant role. He might […]

Cody Zeller Expected To Be Starting Center

Charlotte Hornets center Cody Zeller is expected to be the starting center heading into the regular season, according to head coach James Borrego. He was also called "the closer", which means Zeller will probably get minutes late in games as well. Zeller is expected to see around 23-26 minutes per contest, but he wasn't able […]

Kevin Knox Looks Impressive In Training Camp

New York Knicks forward Kevin Knox has reportedly looked good during training camp, according to head coach Tom Thibodeau. "When Kevin Knox takes good shots, he's going to make them. He's put a lot of time into his shooting. I think he's gotten stronger," said Thibodeau. It's unlikely that Knox ever lives up to the […]

Seth Curry Will Help Run The Offense

Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry is expected to help facilitate the offense, according to head coach Doc Rivers. It's unclear at the moment whether Curry will be starting or coming off the bench with the Sixers. Regardless, he should get plenty of time with the ball in his hands. He should see an expanded role […]

Marvin Bagley Is Finally Healthy

Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley (foot) appears finally healthy and ready for the upcoming season, according to head coach Luke Walton. His sophomore campaign was ruined by a right foot injury.

Coby White To Be Primary Ball-Handler

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White is going to be the primary ball-handler for the upcoming season, according to head coach Billy Donovan. This confirms that White will be starting over Tomas Satoransky, which he deserves to do. White could push himself in the top 80-90 range with more ball-handling responsibilities. He won't bring much on […]

Thomas Bryant Could Have Breakout Campaign

Washington Wizards center Thomas Bryant (foot) mentioned that his health was the main factor to his improved play inside the bubble last season.

Tyler Herro Becoming Improved Playmaker

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro spent the entire offseason focusing on becoming a better playmaker.

He says he'll accept any role that is asked of him, but knows he'll get quality minutes […]

Warriors Will Be Cautious With James Wiseman

Golden State Warriors center James Wiseman probably won't have the type of impact that fans are hoping for during his rookie season. Head coach Steve Kerr hinted that the organization plans to bring Wiseman along slowly. He played in just three college games, so the team doesn't want to do too much with him too […]

Anthony Davis Agrees To Extension With Lakers

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis has reportedly agreed to a five-year, $190 million maximum extension with the organization. Davis was the best free agent available, but no one actually expected him to leave the Lakers. The contract includes an early termination option ahead of the 2024-25 season.
