3 Potential Landing Spots For Jordan Poole
Rumors are making the rounds that the New Orleans Pelicans are considering waiving Jordan Poole and the $34 million remaining on his bloated expiring contract this season. Thus far, the buzz is from unsubstantiated sources, but there has been thought around the league this offseason that the Pelicans wouldn't mind absolving themselves of Poole and his large salary. The four-year, $128 million rookie contract extension he originally signed with the Golden State Warriors ($123M guara...
Cavaliers Now In Line To Land 1 of 2 Top NBA Free Agents
After Friday's trade of Dennis Schroder and his $14.8 million salary , the Cleveland Cavaliers have saved roughly $6.8 million off their luxury tax obligations .

But one more barrier remains. I...

Chris Paul Finally To Join LA Lakers?
The year was 2011, when a complicated three-time blockbuster was on the verge of sending legendary point guard Chris Paul to the Los Angeles Lakers. Until NBA Commissioner David Stern infamously blocked the deal . Now, 15 years later, there's a good chance that CP3, now retired as a player, could finally get to join the Lakers.

Warriors Looking To Add These 2 Free Agents
The Golden State Warriors didn't get to land their big fish (aka LeBron James) or any other of their top targets this summer, but with two remaining standard 15-man roster openings plus a vacant two-way contract slot, the Dubs still plan to add a couple of bodies.

Is it possible that Nikola Jokic, arguably the best player of this generation, could leave the Denver Nuggets—even the NBA??—in the near future?

Report: Westbrook Now In 'Advanced Talks' To Join Unexpected Team

Jonathan Kuminga Free Agency Is Currently 'A Mess': Insider
The Jonathan Kuminga free agency continues to slow-play this summer. The Los Angeles Lakers have been interested all along, but the player's salary demands have made it difficult for a deal to get done. The Cleveland Cavaliers are also in the mix, but the value Kuminga's putting on himself just doesn't jibe with what other teams are offering. And there just isn't that much flexibility salary-wise on the market. Teams just don't have the space at this point in the offseason. Insider Brett...
Insider Reports Mavericks Looking To Trade 3 Players
The Dallas Mavericks became Cooper Flagg's team from pretty much the moment he stepped on the court to begin his career last season. Everything they do going forward will be to build around the 19-year-old phenom. That means, for those players on the wrong side of 25, their time in Dallas will be short. Aside from Kyrie Irving (for now), several of the more veteran Mavs are on the trade block this summer. REPORT: The Dallas Mavericks are open to trading Klay Thompson, PJ Washington...

A Very Influential 2-Time NBA Champ Tries To Lure Klay Thompson To Lakers
Klay Thompson, from all accounts, is working hard on a buyout agreement with the Dallas Mavericks. Should that come to pass, there would be quite a few teams with interest in the former Splash Brother. Still an elite long-range bomber, Klay could help a number of clubs off the bench, even at the age of 36. The one team that has a very influential voice trying to recruit Klay is the LA Lakers. It seems that former two-time Lakers world champion Mychal Thompson—yes, Klay's father —is worki...

Latest Intel On RFA Jalen Duran & Pistons
