According to The Vertical Reporter and Editor Adrian Wojnarowski, the NBA made good on their word and has decided [...]

There is a reason why the Houston Rockets renounced the rights to Terrence Jones, now of the New Orleans Pelicans, but not Donatas Motiejunas, who remains unsigned. He is a pretty hot commodity. Don’t let his current status fool you. D-Mo is a wanted man, per Fox 26’s Mark Berman: Forward Donatas Motiejunas would be [...]

With Tim Duncan retiring from the NBA, it’s only natural our attention start shifting to San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich. Sure, Manu Ginobili probably won’t play beyond next season.

How much does Team USA/Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski like Klay Thompson? A whole lot. Okay, that’s a lie. He likes him more than a whole lot–so much so that he believes the Golden State Warriors Splash Brother is one of the best players on Earth, per NBC Sports’ Kurt Helin: “Klay is one of [...]

Anthony Davis does not seem broken up about the departures of Ryan Anderson and Eric Gordon, both of whom left the New Orleans Pelicans for the Houston Rockets as unrestricted free agents.

If the Milwaukee Bucks begin the 2016-17 season with Greg Monroe still on the roster, it’ll be a surprise at this point. Monroe has been linked to various trade rumors since before his first season with the Bucks ended, and that chatter is only picking up steam as we move into the dog days of [...]
