While it has been rumored all summer that Andrew Wiggins would get a massive extension, and that he was not on the table whatsoever in any Kyrie Irving trade talks, yesterday’s report from Darren Wolfson all but confirms that Wiggins has verbally agreed and will sign a five-year, $148 million extension before camp opens.

It was reported that the Nuggets had every intention of re-signing Mason Plumlee this off-season after trading for him at the 2017 NBA trade deadline, but as the summer passed and restricted free agency market, especially for centers, was ice-cold, Plumlee remained on the market with little to no rumors or chatter about any potential [...]

In general, the 2017 free agency market has not been very kind to most players outside of the top few tiers of the league, but it has especially been tepid for two groups of free agents in particular: centers and veteran point guards. Derrick Rose has to essentially sign the minimum to join the Cavaliers [...]

While the fact that John Wall took his time deciding on accepting the four-year, $169 million max extension with the Washington Wizards threw off some alarm bells around the league on whether or not he was intending to bolt in the 2018 free agency, Wall agreed to sign the massive contract with the Wizards over [...]

After being renounced by the Pistons and becoming an unrestricted free agent last week, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope instantly became the most valuable free agent on the open market (restricted free agency is not an open market). While the Nets decided to pass on Pope while waiting on the Wizards to match their $100 million offer for [...]

The Sacramento Kings made a few surprising splashes in free agency this year, adding to their young core of De’Aaron Fox, Buddy Hield, Willie Cauley-Stein and Skal LaBissiere with three veterans to help mentor them and improve the team in 2017-18: Zach Randolph, Vince Carter and George Hill. While all three were a bit of [...]

It appears Paul Millsap will be headed to the Denver Nuggets as part of a three-way sign-and-trade with the Los Angeles Clippers and Atlanta Hawks.

It [...]

It looks like the Milwaukee Bucks will be stuck (I know it’s a little harsh) with Greg Monroe for one more season. Monroe has decided to opt into the final year and $17.9 million of his contract with the Bucks. [tweet https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/877484459259551744] Monroe has some definite NBA skills including his ability to score with his [...]

J.J. Redick isn’t hoping to double his $7.4 million salary from this past season when he enters free agency. He’s hoping to almost triple it, according to the Los Angeles Times‘ Broderick Turner: J.J. Redick, who is an unrestricted free agent, is looking to earn $18-20 million per season, according to the officials. The Clippers probably won’t [...]

Paul Millsap won’t leave the Atlanta Hawks hanging. He has a player option for next season and, as expected, will decline it to enter free agency. The 32-year-old made that much clear, for the most part, during his end-of-season presser, per the Atlanta Journal-Constitution‘s Chris Vivlamore: It took some doing, but Paul Millsap finally said what everyone [...]
