Rumors

Toronto Raptors All-Star Kawhi Leonard —boy, does that feel weird to write— seems to have quite the ambitious uncle. Dennis Robertson, Leonard’s uncle and someone who is considered a driving decision-maker in his life, apparently has dreams of managing the careers of NBA players other than his nephew. Consider what the San Antonio Express-News‘ Jeff McDonald [...]

Tobias Harris is a talented combo forward that can give you 18 and 6 every night and shoot around 40% from three-point range. Combine that with the fact that he is entering his prime at age 26, and you have a player that many teams would covet. Harris is definitely assured of that as he [...]

Carmelo Anthony is a member of the Atlanta Hawks, kind of, but not really. The Oklahoma City Thunder sent Melo and a 2022 protected first-rounder to Atlanta in exchange for Dennis Schroder and Mike Muscala, who will be sent to the Philadelphia 76ers for Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, according to ESPN.com’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Anthony will promptly be [...]

And you thought the Kawhi Leonard situation couldn’t get any weirder. The San Antonio Spurs have agreed to trade their disgruntled superstar and Danny Green to the Toronto Raptors in exchange for DeMar DeRozan, Jakob Poeltl and a top-20 protected 2019 first-round pick, according to ESPN.com’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Though the return seems underwhelming for someone who’s a [...]

The Philadelphia 76ers are a pretty gutsy group, apparently. As they continue to search for new front-office leadership in the aftermath of Bryan Colangelo’s departure, they’ve reportedly already been rebuffed by one of their targets…because he’s currently employed….by the Houston Rockets…and his name is Daryl Morey. From The New York Times‘ Marc Stein: The Philadelphia 76ers [...]

It doesn’t sound like the Philadelphia 76ers have built their best offer for Kawhi Leonard. Well that, or they don’t consider Markelle Fultz a valuable enough asset to help swing talks with the San Antonio Spurs. From ESPN.com’s Zach Lowe: P.S.: The more conflicting information I hear from people one or two steps away about [...]

The Carmelo Anthony sweepstakes are heating up…kind of. Though the Oklahoma City Thunder have yet to officially part ways with their overpriced and unhappy forward, more than a few teams are already vying to become his next landing spot. The Houston Rockets appear to be the early frontrunners, because, well, they’ve been circling Anthony since [...]

So, um, about Kawhi Leonard wanting to play with LeBron James on the Los Angeles Lakers…That’s apparently not a real desire of his. Yahoo Sports’ Shams Charania said as much during an appearance on Fox Sports’ The Herd with Colin Cowherd, calling the two-time Defensive Player of the Year’s interest in syncing up with the Lakers “overstated.” [...]

Devin Booker is entering extension negotiations with the Phoenix Suns as a relatively unhappy camper. According to Yahoo Sports’ Shams Charania, the team’s franchise cornerstone is none too thrilled that they waived his best friend, Tyler Ulis: [tweet https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1013469290845089794] Could this prevent Booker from signing the max extension the Suns are invariably going to offer [...]

Beyond the the top-tier free agents like LeBron James and Paul George and even the mid-tier free agents like Marcus Smart and Julius Randle, lies the veterans who are in the twilight of their career and usually in search of a championship contending team to go out as a winner. One veteran who will be [...]
