The second half of June is here and the mid-summer classic is only one month away. Teams are making runs in their divisions and hopefully so are your fantasy teams.

Rockets May Target Nicolas Claxton

Upcoming restricted free agent forward/center Nicolas Claxton will be available over the summer. While Brooklyn would certainly love to keep him on the roster, the franchise may not be willing to match a full mid-level exception offer of $10.5 million. The Rockets have recently surfaced as a team looking to add another big man, especially […]

Myles Turner Looking To Remain In Indiana

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner wants to remain with the team. The 26-year-old has been rumored to be on the move for months now. The franchise parted ways with Domantas Sabonis ahead of the 2022 trade deadline, so there remains a strong chance the Pacers will move on from Turner and continue to build around […]

Kenny Atkinson Not Going To Charlotte

Golden State Warriors assistant Kenny Atkinson will remain with the team after all. The 55-year-old was recently offered a four-year deal with the Hornets, which he accepted in principle. However, with Mike Brown taking his talents to the Sacramento Kings, Atkinson will now remain in the Bay Area and take over as Steve Kerr's top […]

James Wiseman Believes He'll Play In Summer League

Golden State Warriors center James Wiseman mentioned that he's 90 percent sure he'll play in the upcoming Summer League next month. He underwent knee surgery in April of 2021 in order to repair a torn meniscus. Wiseman didn't play at all this season, but appears almost ready for game action. It's great to see the […]

Yermin Mercedes Claimed By Giants

Designated hitter/catcher Yermin Mercedes was claimed off waivers by the San Francisco Giants on Saturday. Mercedes won rookie of the month in April of 2021, but hasn't been able to find that form since. In triple-A this season, Mercedes slashed .230/.376/.425 with four homers in 87 at-bats. The 29-year-old smashes left-handed pitching, and the Giants […]

Knicks Are Looking To Move Nerlens Noel

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel is reportedly one of the players that the organization would like to trade this summer. The 28-year-old has spent each of the last two seasons in New York. He is a solid defender and a decent option off the bench, assuming he can stay healthy. Sadly, Noel has problems […]

Yadier Molina To Miss A Few Weeks

The St. Louis Cardinals are preparing to be without 10-time All-Star catcher Yadier Molina (knee) for at least a few weeks as the 39-year-old tries to recover from knee soreness that has plagued him for most of the season.

Ivan Herrera Recalled From Minors

St. Louis Cardinals catcher Ivan Herrera has been recalled from Triple-A Memphis on Friday. Veteran catcher Yadier Molina (knee) was placed on the injured list, retroactive June 16.

J.T. Realmuto Resting On Friday

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto (rest) is out of the starting lineup for the first game of the doubleheader on Friday.

Blazers Plan To Re-Sign Jusuf Nurkic

Upcoming unrestricted free-agent center Jusuf Nurkic is expected to receive plenty of offers in July. However, the Blazers hold the big man's bird rights, which will make Portland the favorite to retain his services. The 27-year-old has emerged as one of the best at the center position throughout his tenure in Portland, and he recently […]

Robert Williams III Available On Thursday

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) is available for Game 6 of the NBA Finals versus the Golden State Warriors. As if there was any doubt, primarily with the C's one loss away from elimination, the 24-year-old is good to go after continuing to deal with left knee soreness throughout the postseason. He's reportedly […]

Mike Zunino Might Have Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

Tampa Bay Rays skipper Kevin Cash said that catcher Mike Zunino (shoulder) could be dealing with thoracic outlet syndrome. He will receive a Botox injection that has helped other players in similar situations, and he will need three to six days to see if it makes an impact. Zunino was hitting an ugly .148/.195/.304 with […]

Adley Rutschman Hits First Career Homer

Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman accomplished a career milestone Wednesday, hitting his first home run of what could be many if things go as the club hopes. Rutschman went 2-for-4 with a double and the two-run shot in a 7-6 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. Rutschman is still in the midst of an adjustment […]

Will Smith Knocks Eighth Homer

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith supplied a home run in the first inning of Wednesday's 4-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels.

Houston Looking To Give Alperen Sengun More Minutes

Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun could see more work this season, according to ESPN NBA insider Tim MacMahon.

Despite logging only 20.7 minutes per game, Sengun made […]
