A Potential Olympic Headache For Grant Hill

Well, this is kind of weird: apparently, Grant Hill and Jaylen Brown got into it a bit over how Hill put together Team USA. Hill, of course, is now running USA Basketball, and in 2024, he passed on Brown when Kawhi Leonard had to withdraw, taking Derrick White instead, and Brown was not happy about […]

Oh, that Michael Porter Jr. is trolling again … or is he?

Nope, the Brooklyn Nets don’t have interest in restricted free agent Peyton Watson. Ask any self-respecting pundit. They’ll tell you the 6’9” 23-year-old two-way player is headed either back to the Denver Nuggets or maybe the Los Angeles Clippers or the Atlanta Hawks … although the Hawks acquisition of Lu Dort seems to have quelled […]

NBA Notes: Cavs, Kevin Love, Kings, Zach LaVine, Nets

Cavaliers A Kevin Love reunion with the Cavaliers is an idea that just won’t seem to go away. Writing for Cavs on SI, John Hobbs suggested the veteran forward remains a logical fit for Cleveland’s bench, citing his outside shooting, rebounding and championship experience. On paper, it’s easy to see why. Love, 37, averaged 6.7 points […] The post NBA Notes: Cavs, Kevin Love, Kings, Zach LaVine, Nets appeared first on Hoops Wire .

Yeah, we’re a little late but there’s a lot to ponder. The end of the Brooklyn Nets two summer leagues, coinciding with the start of free agency, seems like a good time to assess things.

Jonathan Kuminga Would Provide Vital Forward Depth

Jonathan Kuminga would help the Minnesota Timberwolves’ forward depth problem, but he would not fully solve it by himself. The better answer is that he could be part of the solution if Minnesota wants a younger, more athletic wing who can play up a position and take pressure off Jaden McDaniels. After offloading Julius Randle to the Brooklyn Nets, the Wolves lost a big frontcourt scorer.

NBA Notes: Hawks, Lu Dort, Raptors, Collin Murray-Boyles, Nets

Hawks The Hawks have spent the past couple of offseasons building an identity. It’s becoming increasingly clear what that identity is. According to Lauren Williams of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the Hawks believe they’ve added even more toughness by swapping Zaccharie Risacher for Luguentz Dort and Ryan Nembhard. Dort brings playoff experience and a reputation as […] The post NBA Notes: Hawks, Lu Dort, Raptors, Collin Murray-Boyles, Nets appeared first on Hoops Wire .

Michael Porter Jr. believes Nets are building “something special”

Michael Porter Jr. entered Brooklyn as a proven champion, but with a very different responsibility than the one he held in Denver.
