Free agent power forward/center Ed Davis has agreed to a two-year contract with the Utah Jazz. Davis was a do-it-all bench piece for the Nets last season, averaging 5.8 points and 8.6 rebounds per game.

Justin Carter 6 years agoSacramento Kings Agree To Deal With Dewayne Dedmon
With Willie Cauley-Stein likely on the way out, the Sacramento Kings were in need of help at the center position. They got that on the first day of free agency, agreeing to a three-year deal to join Sacramento. Dedmon is an underrated big man who can score inside and outside, shooting 38.2 percent on 3.4 […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoDeMarre Carroll To Sign With Spurs
Free agent forward DeMarre Carroll has agreed to a two-year deal with the San Antonio Spurs, leaving the Brooklyn Nets after two seasons.

The Philadelphia 76ers have reportedly acquired guard Josh Richardson in a sign-and-trade deal with the Miami Heat. The Sixers lost guard J.J. Redick to the Pelicans in free agency earlier on Sunday, so the acquisition of Richardson helps to fill a key hole in the team’s starting lineup. Richardson isn’t close to the shooter Redick […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoAl Horford To Sign With 76ers
Free agent center/power forward Al Horford has agreed to a four-year deal to join the Philadelphia 76ers. The move came just moments after guard Jimmy Butler agreed to a deal to leave the Sixers for the Miami Heat.

Justin Carter 6 years agoJimmy Butler Heading To Heat In Sign-And-Trade
The Philadelphia 76ers have reached an agreement with the Miami Heat to send guard/forward Jimmy Butler to Miami in exchange for Josh Richardson. Butler joins a Miami team that’s been in need of a star player and will instantly be the team’s first option. The real life move puts Butler farther away from a championship, […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoDeAndre Jordan To Join Nets
The Brooklyn Nets plan to sign center DeAndre Jordan to join the team’s new core of Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant. While the Nets already have a promising young center in Jarrett Allen, Jordan should get a decent amount of run for the team. He’s still a solid rebounder and rim runner who can score […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoAl-Farouq Aminu Expected To Sign With Magic
The Orlando Magic are expected to sign free agent forward Al-Farouq Aminu, who’ll sign a three-year deal and joins an extremely crowded Orlando frontcourt.

Justin Carter 6 years agoGerald Green Agrees To Return To Houston
Shooting guard Gerald Green has agreed on a deal to return to the Houston Rockets. Green’s a streaky shooter who has helped the Rockets during his tenure and he’ll likely end up with the same role he had last season, when he played 20.2 minutes per game, scoring 9.2 points per contest and shooting 35.4 […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoDanuel House Agrees To Return To Rockets
The Houston Rockets and forward Danuel House have agreed to a deal for House to return to the Rockets.

We’ll have to […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoJulius Randle Plans To Sign With Knicks
Free agent power forward Julius Randle appears to be the backup plan for the New York Knicks after the team missed out on all the big fish of free agency, as Randle and the team have agreed to a three-year deal for Randle to join the Knicks. While the move clears out room for Zion […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoJ.J. Redick To Join New Orleans Pelicans
Free agent shooting guard J.J. Redick has agreed to a deal with the New Orleans Pelicans, ending the sharp shooter’s Philadelphia tenure. In theory, Redick provides the Pelicans with a great spot up shooting option who can help a young team take a step forward, but Redick shot below 40 percent on threes for the […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoTrevor Ariza To Sign With Kings
Small forward Trevor Ariza has reportedly agreed to a two-year deal with the Sacramento Kings, a surprising move for the veteran forward. The Kings already re-signed Harrison Barnes, so it’s unclear how Ariza fits with the team. He’ll likely come off the bench, and as a 34-year-old veteran on a fairly young team, Ariza’s impact […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoTobias Harris To Return To Sixers
The Philadelphia 76ers and forward Tobias Harris have reportedly agreed to a five-year deal for Harris to return to the Sixers. Harris played 27 regular season games with the Sixers last year, averaging 18.2 points and 7.9 rebounds per game in those contests. With J.J. Redick heading to New Orleans and Jimmy Butler’s future still […]

Justin Carter 6 years agoGarrett Temple Plans To Sign With Nets
While the big news in Brooklyn was the team’s signings of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, the team also added guard Garrett Temple. Temple will likely absorb some of the minutes that Allen Crabbe played last year as the team’s fourth guard and while Temple’s 2018-2019 season didn’t inspire too much confidence when you look […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoRicky Rubio To Sign With Phoenix Suns
In a fairly surprising move, the Phoenix Suns have agreed to a deal with free agent point guard Ricky Rubio, at last ending Phoenix’s search for a point guard to pair with Devin Booker. Rubio’s never been known as a shooter, but he is a gifted passer who can help set up second-year center Deandre […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoBojan Bogdanovic Agrees To Deal With Jazz
Former Pacers forward Bojan Bogdanovic has reportedly agreed to a four-year deal with the Utah Jazz. Bogdanovic was a revelation for the Pacers last year, posting career high averages in points (18), assists (2.0), and rebounds (4.1) per game while connecting on 42.5 percent of his threes. He’ll slide into the Jazz starting lineup, where […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoDerrick Rose To Sign With Pistons
The Detroit Pistons have agreed to a two-year deal with former NBA MVP Derrick Rose. The point guard joins Detroit after playing 51 games last year for the Timberwolves.

Justin Carter 6 years agoTerry Rozier Intends To Sign With Hornets
The Charlotte Hornets and free agent point guard Terry Rozier have reportedly agreed to a three-year deal that will pay Rozier $58 million. Rozier, who had been Boston’s backup point guard, will have huge shoes to fill in Charlotte as he replaces the team’s long time star, Kemba Walker. Rozier’s been a little disappointing, especially […]

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson has reportedly agreed to a five-year max extension to stay with the Warriors. Thompson will miss most of the 2019-2020 NBA season with an ACL tear, but could return after the All-Star break. If he does, his ability to pile up points via the three-point game can come in […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoDwight Powell Agrees To Extension With Mavericks
The Dallas Mavericks have agreed to a three-year deal to keep power forward/center Dwight Powell. Powell is coming off his best season, averaging 10.6 points and 5.3 rebounds on 59.7 percent shooting in 21.6 minutes per game. Powell shot 79.7 percent at the rim last year and should continue to be a rim running threat, […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoKemba Walker Plans To Sign With Boston
With Kyrie Irving reportedly on his way to Brooklyn, the Boston Celtics made quick work of finding a replacement, agreeing to a deal with former Charlotte Hornets point guard Kemba Walker. Walker took two more shots per game than Irving last year, averaging more points but scoring at a less efficient rate. It’s unclear what […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoNikola Vucevic Agrees To Stay With Magic
Coming off his first All-Star appearance, Nikola Vucevic has agreed to a contract extension with the Orlando Magic. Last season, Vucevic averaged 20.8 points and 12 rebounds per game — both career highs — while shooting 51.8 percent from the field. His numbers made him one of the more consistent players in fantasy basketball, a […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoJonas Valanciunas Agrees To Stay In Memphis

Last season, Lopez started 81 games for the Bucks, averaging 12.5 points and 4.9 rebounds per game while shooting 36.5 percent from three.

Justin Carter 6 years agoKyrie Irving Agrees To Deal With Nets
Former Celtics point guard Kyrie Irving has agreed to a deal to join the Brooklyn Nets for the 2019-2020 NBA season. The move likely means that All-Star guard D’Angelo Russell will be leaving Brooklyn, setting Irving up to slide into his starting spot and enable the Nets to run an even more effective offense. Last […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoKevin Durant To Sign With Brooklyn Nets
Free agent forward Kevin Durant has reportedly agreed to a deal with the Brooklyn Nets. When healthy, Durant is one of the NBA’s five best players, a dynamic scorer who can dominate inside and outside with his array of moves. But Durant’s expected to miss all of the 2019-2020 season with a torn Achilles, which […]
