Rumors

Prior to the Miami Heat’s victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night, Dwyane Wade admitted he has no idea whether he’ll return for a 16th NBA season in 2018-19. Here are his comments, via the Miami Herald‘s Barry Jackson: “I don’t know. I have told everybody around me that I am taking it after this [...]

It might be time to start counting the San Antonio Spurs as a potential LeBron James suitor this summer. That’s what certain people around the NBA think anyway, per ESPN’s Ryen Russillo: [tweet https://twitter.com/ryenarussillo/status/968177549087068162] Yes indeed: Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich is actually the trigger for all this hoopla. He directed some flattering words toward [...]

Kawhi Leonard’s season may not be over after all. Sources told ESPN.com’s Adrian Wojnarowski that the two-time Defensive Player of the Year has been medically cleared to resume basketball activities, but the onus is on him to decide when or if he returns. And while speaking with reporters, San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich [...]

Aaron Gordon is a freakishly athletic modern power forward in the NBA who has developed himself to one of the more exciting talents in the NBA under the age of 25 (he is 22). He is set to enter restricted free agency this summer and should be able to be one of the few players [...]

Congrats, Cavaliers fans: At least one person inside the NBA’s vast circle would be shocked to see LeBron James leave Cleveland in free agency this summer. From The Undefeated’s Marc J.

It doesn’t look like Nerlens Noel is nearing the end of his brief tenure with the Dallas Mavericks. To be sure, the 23-year-old center can leave over the summer, when he enters unrestricted free agency. But he probably isn’t bolting before then. The Mavericks failed to trade him in advance of the NBA’s Thursday deadline, [...]

If Dwyane Wade can make his way back to the Miami Heat less than two years after leaving, then surely Vince Carter and the Toronto Raptors can sync up for a swan song following a 13-year relationship break. We’re not being the least bit facetious here. This is a distinct possibility if the right stars [...]

Jeff Hornacek’s job with the New York Knicks is safe through at least the rest of the season. Despite the team’s recent downturn, the organization has made it clear they won’t be making a change at head coach this year, per the New York Post‘s Marc Berman: Kristaps Porzingis is gone for the season, but Knicks [...]

Trading Blake Griffin apparently wasn’t a signal from the Los Angeles Clippers that they’re prepping for a full-scale teardown. If it was, they would be nearing deals to send DeAndre Jordan and Lou Williams to other teams in advance of Thursday’s trade deadline. Not only is this not the case, as of now, but the [...]
