Malik Beasley Agrees To Big Deal With Minnesota

The Minnesota Timberwolves have agreed to a four-year, $60 million deal with guard Malik Beasley. Beasley was traded to Minnesota in February, starting all 14 games after the deal and averaging 20.7 points and 5.1 rebounds per game while shooting 42.6 percent from three. If that version of Beasley is what we get going forward, […]

Rodney Hood Staying In Portland

Small forward Rodney Hood has agreed to a two-year, $21 million deal to stay with the Portland Trail Blazers. Hood averaged 11 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 21 games last season. He shot 50.6 percent from the field and 49.3 percent from three. Hood torn his Achilles last season, so it's quite possible […]

Dwight Howard To Sign One-Year Deal With Sixers

Free agent center Dwight Howard is signing a one-year contract with the Philadelphia 76ers, where he'll serve as Joel Embiid's backup. Howard's no longer an elite center, but his skillset still works really well as a bench big. He's more valuable in real life than fantasy at this point, but his rebounding and finishing at […]

Josh Jackson Signing With Pistons

Free agent small forward Josh Jackson is signing a deal with the Detroit Pistons. After two bad years in Phoenix, Jackson spent last season with the Grizzlies, playing 22 games and averaging 9.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.6 assists on 44 percent shooting. He showed signs of improvement, but this move still just feels like […]

Danilo Gallinari Signing With Hawks

The Atlanta Hawks have agreed to a three-year, $61.5 million deal with free agent forward Danilo Gallinari. The veteran forward spent last season in Oklahoma City, but the Thunder are starting a rebuild. With averages of 18.7 points and 5.2 rebounds on 40.5 percent shooting from deep last year, Gallo is a huge addition for […]

Jahlil Okafor Signing With Pistons

The Detroit Pistons added their fifth big of the offseason on Friday, agreeing to a two-year deal with free agent center Jahlil Okafor. This follows the drafting of Isaiah Stewart, signing of Mason Plumlee, and trades for Dewayne Dedmon and Tony Bradley. That's...a lot. Okafor averaged 8.1 points and 4.2 boards per game for New […]

Derrick Favors Signing Three-Year Deal With Jazz

Free agent power forward Derrick Favors has agreed to a three-year, $30 million deal to return to the Utah Jazz, where he played from 2011 to 2019 before being traded to the New Orleans Pelicans. In one year for the Pels, Favors averaged 9.0 points and 9.8 rebounds per game. In Utah, expect to see […]

De'Aaron Fox Signing Five-Year Max Extension

Sacramento Kings point guard De'Aaron Fox has agreed to a five-year, $163 million max extension. The promising young guard will be counted on by Sacramento to lead them into the future. It's still not clear if Fox is good enough to be the best player on a contender, but he averaged 21.1 points and 6.8 […]

Jordan Clarkson Returning To Jazz On Four-Year Deal

Shooting guard Jordan Clarkson has agreed to a four-year, $52 million deal to return to the Utah Jazz. Acquired mid-season, Clarkson played 42 games for the Jazz, averaging 15.6 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.6 assists while shooting 46.2 percent from the floor and 36.6 percent from three. The veteran guard seemed to find a role […]

Goran Dragic Re-Signing With Heat

The Miami Heat and point guard Goran Dragic have agreed to terms on a two-year deal worth $37.4 million. There's a team option in the second year. The aging Dragic dealt with injuries the past couple of years, but was healthy for the playoffs last year and averaged 19.1 points, 4.4 assists, and 4.1 rebounds […]

Nuggets To Sign Facundo Campazzo

The Denver Nuggets have agreed to a two-year deal with Real Madrid point guard Facundo Campazzo. Currently in the midst of a EuroLeague season, Campazzo will now head stateside to play for Denver. It's hard to know what to expect from Campazzo, an elite passer who seems unlikely to displace Jamal Murray from the starting […]

Drew Eubanks Agrees To Three-Year Deal With Spurs

San Antonio Spurs power forward Drew Eubanks is signing a three-year deal to return to the team. While his 2019-20 numbers weren't great, he played well in the bubble, averaging 7.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks in the eight games the Spurs played. He's unlikely to repeat that performance over a full season, but […]

Wesley Matthews Signing With Lakers

Free agent guard Wesley Matthews is signing a one-year, $3.6 million deal with the Los Angeles Lakers. With Danny Green gone and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope looking at deals elsewhere, Matthews has a chance to play a key role as a reserve 3-and-D wing for this Lakers team. If that translates into fantasy success will depend on […]

Dwayne Bacon Signing With Magic

Free agent small forward Dwayne Bacon has agreed to terms on a two-year deal with the Orlando Magic, with a team option in the second year. Bacon started 11 of his 39 games last year for the Hornets, averaging 5.7 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.3 assists while shooting just 28.4 percent from three. Bacon is […]

Mason Plumlee Agrees To Deal With Pistons

Free agent center Mason Plumlee has agreed to a three-year, $25 million deal with the Detroit Pistons. The move seems to indicate that Christian Wood will leave Detroit in free agency, as Plumlee's addition doesn't make much sense otherwise. Detroit also acquired Dewayne Dedmon this week, giving them a new-look frontcourt. Plumlee averaged 7.2 points […]

Enes Kanter Traded To Portland

Center Enes Kanter has been traded to the Portland Trail Blazers as part of a three-team deal that sends a future first to the Celtics and Mario Hezonja to Memphis. Kanter looks to be the backup to Jusuf Nurkic. A good offensive player, Kanter will likely see a dip in his minutes this season, making […]

NBA Draft: Five Rookies Most Likely To Struggle In 2020-21

The 2020 NBA Draft was Wednesday night, and while this fast-paced week of NBA action probably has you thinking about free agency already, let's not forget about how the draft will impact fantasy basketball this season. Every year, rookies come in and create an immediate impact, but you probably know who to target if that's […]

Bobby Portis Has Team Option Declined

New York Knicks forward Bobby Portis will be heading to free agency after his team option was declined. He was set to make $15.7 million next season, so it doesn't come as a surprise that the Knicks decided to decline it. They also waived Elfrid Payton and Taj Gibson to open up more money for […]

Knicks Waive Elfrid Payton, Taj Gibson

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton and forward Taj Gibson have been waived by the organization. This doesn't come as surprising news since both players were expected to have significant salaries next season. Payton was the best point guard for the Knicks last season, but that doesn't mean a whole lot. Gibson is basically a […]

Chris Boucher Gets Qualifying Offer From Raptors

Toronto Raptors forward Chris Boucher has been extended a qualifying offer by the organization. That means that Boucher is a restricted free agent, so the team can match any offer he receives. Marc Gasol and Serge Ibaka are unrestricted free agents and are allowed to sign anywhere they want. Boucher could find himself with significant […]

JaVale McGee Picks Up Player Option

Los Angeles Lakers center JaVale McGee has decided to accept his $4.2 million player option for next season. He started 68 games during the regular season, but was kept on the bench for most of the postseason. McGee is expected to have a similar role on the Lakers this season, but that depends on who […]

Ersan Ilyasova Waived By Bucks

Milwaukee Bucks forward Ersan IIyasova has been waived by the organization. He was traded to the Sacramento Kings earlier this week, but that deal didn't go as planned. Bogan Bogdanovic decided to opt into free agency, so IIyasova returned to Milwaukee. The Bucks have cut the veteran forward instead of attempting to unload his $7 […]

Austin Rivers Opts Out Of Deal

Houston Rockets guard Austin Rivers has decided to opt out of his contract for next season. He'll become an unrestricted free agent, which might not be a great idea on his part. Rivers wasn't impressive during his 68 games in Houston last season, so there probably won't be a big market for him. Possibly, Rivers […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Sticking With Mavs

Dallas Mavericks forward Tim Hardaway Jr. has decided to accept his $19 million player option for next season. This was a pretty easy decision for him since he wasn't going to land that kind of deal on the open market. He put together a surprisingly strong season with the Mavericks last season. Although, he'll have […]

Gordon Hayward Becomes Unrestricted Free Agent

Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward has decided to opt out of his $34 million player option for next season. The 30-year-old forward is walking away from quite a lot of money, but he should get a solid offer in free agency. The Atlanta Hawks, New York Knicks, and Indiana Pacers have already reportedly shown interest […]

Avery Bradley Expected To Test Free Agency

Los Angeles Lakers guard Avery Bradley has reportedly declined his $5 million player option for next season. It's unclear why he did this, but he probably won't get a higher offer elsewhere. Possibly, Bradley is looking for a longer deal or more playing time on a different organization. He can be a solid role player […]

JaMychal Green Declines Player Option

Los Angeles Clippers forward JaMychal Green has declined his $5 million player option for next season. This seems like an odd move by Green who probably won't get much more money in free agency. Possibly, he made this decision, so he could find a place where he'll get more playing time. Green should be able […]

Thon Maker Doesn't Receive Qualifying Offer

Detroit Pistons center Thon Maker was not extended a qualifying offer by the organization. The former 10th overall selection during the 2016 NBA Draft has been unable to live up to expectations. He wasn't able to make much of an impact during his 60 games in Detroit last season. The Pistons have decided to move […]

Juan Hernangomez Gets Qualifying Offer

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Juan Hernangomez was extended the qualifying offer by the organization. He played well during his short time with the Wolves last season. Sadly, it was only a 14 game sample size and the team was without Karl-Anthony Towns during most of those contests. The Wolves will be able to match any offer […]

Suns Decline Team Option On Cheick Diallo

Phoenix Suns center Cheick Diallo had his team option for the 2020-2021 season declined by the organization. The 24-year-old center played in 47 games with Phoenix last season. He was mainly used as emergency depth, so declining his option is probably for the best. Diallo will hopefully find himself a better situation elsewhere, but he […]
