Isaiah Hartenstein Hopeful to Stay with Oklahoma City
Oklahoma City Thunder center Isaiah Hartenstein would like to remain with the organization long-term. His future with the team is uncertain, with Hartenstein having a $28.5 million team option for the 2026-2027 season. The big man is grateful for his time with the organization and would love to stay in Oklahoma City. This past season, Hartenstein averaged 9.2 points, 9.4 rebounds, and 3.5 assists across 24.2 minutes per game in 47 games. Hartenstein saw a slightly reduced role with the team during his second year with the organization. It's hard to imagine the team paying him nearly $30 million, given the depth they have on this roster. A change of scenery could help Hartenstein's overall value, but we'll see what happens this summer.

Luguentz Dort Wants to Remain with Thunder
Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort recently said that his main goal is to remain with the organization. His future with the organization is up in the air, with Dort having a $17.7 million team option for next season. Dort has been with the team since entering the league in 2019. His overall stats took a hit last season, but he has been a consistent option for this team for many years. This past season, Dort averaged 8.3 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 0.9 steals in 26.8 minutes per game in 69 contests. There could be a handful of suitors for Dort if he does hit free agency this summer.

Mitchell Robinson is Questionable for Game 1
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (finger) is officially listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday's Game 1 of the NBA Finals versus the San Antonio Spurs. Robinson is currently nursing a fractured right pinky finger that he suffered at some point during the Eastern Conference Finals. He was able to get through some individual work without any issues on Sunday. All signs are pointing to Robinson being active, but fantasy managers will need to check back ahead of tip-off. If Robinson sits out, Karl-Anthony Towns would take on a heavy workload with Ariel Hukporti likely getting a few minutes off the bench.

Moussa Diabate Has Contract Guaranteed for 2026-2027 Season
Charlotte Hornets center Moussa Diabate will be back with the team next year after recently having his contract guaranteed by the organization. Diabate is coming off a surprisingly solid season for the Hornets this past season. The big man averaged 7.9 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 1.9 assists across 26.0 minutes per game across 73 games. Diabate emerged as a viable starting center option for the Hornets with 47 starts across his 73 appearances. Ryan Kalkbrenner should continue to push for the starting gig after a decent rookie year. Regardless of who starts, both players should be worth a look as late-round options, with Kalkbrenner having higher overall upside.

Oso Ighodaro Gets Guaranteed Contract for Next Season
Phoenix Suns forward/center Oso Ighodaro will be back with the team next season. Recently, the organization guaranteed Ighordaro's contract for the 2026-2027 season. The Suns selected Ighodaro with the 40th overall pick during the 2024 draft. He averaged 6.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 2.3 assists in 82 games (24 starts) with the Suns this past season. He was mostly used in a reserve role, but saw increased playing time when Mark Williams went down due to a foot injury. Ighodaro could be in the mix for the starting center role next season. It remains to be seen what the Suns decide to do this offseason. Khaman Maluach could also be in the mix for an expanded role. Regardless, Ighodaro should take on a larger role in some capacity next season.

Chet Holmgren Fails to Step Up in the Season Finale
Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Chet Holmgren recorded four points, four rebounds, two steals, and two blocks in Saturday's 111-103 Game 7 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. The 24-year-old was a non-factor on the offensive end, going 1-for-2 from the field and 2-for-4 at the charity stripe over 32 minutes. Although Holmgren offered some utility with his defensive production, his lack of assertiveness was glaring as Shai Gilgeous-Alexander shouldered the scoring burden with 35 points. Holmgren closes out his campaign having maintained his status as an elite rim protector, but he must increase his shooting volume to make himself more impactful on the offensive end next season.

Cason Wallace Ends Postseason with Strong Showing
Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Cason Wallace accounted for 17 points, seven rebounds, four assists, two steals, one block, and five three-pointers in Saturday's 111-103 Game 7 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. The 22-year-old shot 6-for-10 from the field, giving Oklahoma City a needed two-way boost with Jalen Williams (hamstring) unavailable. Wallace averaged 8.6 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 2.6 assists during the regular season, so this was one of his better offensive outings of the postseason. His fantasy profile remains more valuable when the defensive stats and threes come together, and Saturday's line was a reminder that he can help across categories when his role expands.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Caps MVP Season with Game 7 Exit
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander tallied 35 points in Saturday's 111-103 Game 7 loss to the San Antonio Spurs, ending the franchise's title defense in the Western Conference Finals. The back-to-back MVP shot 12-for-21 from the field and 9-for-11 at the free-throw line, adding nine assists, four rebounds, three steals, one block, and two 3-pointers. The efficient outing broke from a series in which his jumper had deserted him, as he entered Game 7 shooting 37.9 percent from the field and 26.1 percent from deep over the first six games. Oklahoma City got little help around him, especially with Jalen Williams (hamstring) sidelined for the finale, and a thin supporting cast leaves the offseason squarely focused on reinforcements for its multi-category centerpiece.

Stephon Castle Continues Postseason Run with 16 Points
San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle recorded 16 points, six rebounds, six assists, and one steal in Saturday's Game 7 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 21-year-old was instrumental in securing the team's first Finals appearance since 2014, going 7-for-15 from the field and 2-for-3 at the charity stripe. Castle's offense sparked a crucial fourth-quarter run, giving San Antonio a needed lift after Victor Wembanyama went to the bench with foul trouble. He has been a consistent contributor during this postseason, averaging 19.4 points, 6.7 assists, and 4.9 rebounds per game. The second-year guard will remain an appealing fantasy asset when the Spurs tip off against the New York Knicks in the championship series beginning Wednesday.

Julian Champagnie Shines in Series-Clinching Win
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Julian Champagnie recorded 20 points, six rebounds, one assist, one steal, and six three-pointers in Saturday's 111-103 Game 7 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 24-year-old shot 6-for-11 from the field and 2-for-3 at the free-throw line as San Antonio advanced to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2014. Champagnie averaged 11.1 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 1.5 assists during the regular season, so this was a timely ceiling game. His fantasy appeal still leans heavily on threes and rebounds, but his role as a trusted floor spacer should keep him in play against the Knicks.

De'Aaron Fox Provides Secondary Punch in Game 7 Triumph
San Antonio Spurs guard De'Aaron Fox recorded 15 points, five assists, and three steals in Saturday's 111-103 Game 7 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The victory sent the Spurs to their first NBA Finals since 2014. The former Kings guard shot 6-for-12 from the field and knocked down three 3-pointers, a clean bounce-back from his 1-for-9 night in Game 6. He has played through a sprained right ankle for much of the series, yet his points-assists-steals mix gives San Antonio a reliable secondary creator behind Victor Wembanyama, and a healthier ankle would only sharpen that value against the New York Knicks.

Victor Wembanyama Earns Conference Finals MVP in Spurs' Game 7 Win
San Antonio Spurs forward/center Victor Wembanyama led the team with 22 points in Saturday's 111-103 Game 7 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder, clinching a trip to the NBA Finals and taking home Western Conference Finals MVP. The Defensive Player of the Year shot 7-for-15 from the field, 3-for-5 from deep, and 5-for-7 at the line, adding seven rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one block. After opening the series with 41 points and 24 rebounds in a double-overtime Game 1, he settled for a steadier scoring night here, and San Antonio's balanced attack carried the rest, led by Julian Champagnie's six triples. Wembanyama brings a multi-category floor few centers can match into a Finals meeting with the New York Knicks, beginning Wednesday in San Antonio.

Warriors Prioritize Depth Around Returning Steve Kerr
The Golden State Warriors are keeping a wide board at No. 11 in the 2026 NBA Draft, with Golden State of Mind's Brady Klopfer reporting that the team is weighing about 10-15 names and viewing individual workouts as more important for second-round, two-way, and Summer League targets. Steve Kerr is also back on a new two-year deal, and Golden State appears to be balancing his push for more available players with interest in retaining Al Horford and Kristaps Porzingis. The Warriors went 37-45 with a -0.6 net rating, so this offseason is about finding playable depth around Stephen Curry, who averaged 26.6 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 4.7 assists. A younger bench addition would carry more fantasy appeal than a buried lottery stash, especially if Kerr leans on his veteran core again.

Donovan Mitchell Remains Cleveland's Top Priority
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell is extension-eligible on July 7, and president of basketball operations Koby Altman made it clear the organization plans to keep building around him, according to cleveland.com's Chris Fedor. "He's our guy. Do we think we can win with him as the best player on a championship team? Yes," Altman said. The 29-year-old backed up that confidence with another high-end fantasy season, averaging 27.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.7 assists, and 3.5 threes across 70 games. Cleveland's playoff run ended with a four-game Eastern Conference Finals sweep against New York, so the offseason focus now shifts to how Mitchell fits with James Harden and Evan Mobley. If the Cavaliers keep that core intact, Mitchell should remain the team's top scoring option and a strong early-round fantasy anchor.

Adou Thiero Remains a Lakers Development Project
Los Angeles Lakers forward Adou Thiero had a quiet rookie season, but Silver Screen and Roll's Edwin Garcia wrote that the team should keep him in its long-term plans. The 22-year-old missed training camp and the start of the regular season while recovering from left knee surgery and later lost time to an MCL sprain. He logged only 25 regular-season games, averaging 1.9 points, 1.1 rebounds, and 0.4 assists in 6.0 minutes while shooting 51.6% from the field. There were still fantasy-relevant flashes, including a 25-point South Bay outing on 10-for-12 shooting and 5-for-5 from deep. Thiero needs a steadier jumper and a real rotation lane, but his rim pressure and defensive tools make him a summer watchlist name.
