Trey Lyles Expected To Remain In Sacramento
Sacramento Kings forward Trey Lyles is expected to remain with the team next season. He played well for the team after being traded from the Detroit Pistons. Lyles averaged 10.6 points and 5.6 rebounds in 24 games with Sacramento. It sounds like Lyles will remain with the team for another season, but likely as a... Read More
Ivica Zubac Signs Three-Year Deal
Los Angeles Clippers center Ivica Zubac has agreed to a three-year deal with the organization. The Clippers declined his $7.5 million player option in order to sign him to an extension. Now, Zubac will get a nice new shiny $33 million deal. He averaged career highs in points (10.3), rebounds (8.5), assists (1.6) last season.... Read More
Collin Sexton Gets Qualifying Offer From Cavaliers
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton is expected to be back with the organization next season. The team has extended a qualifying offer to Sexton, which makes him a restricted free agent this summer. Sexton is likely to draw interest from plenty of other organizations, but the Cavs will have the final say. It's possible that... Read More
Shake Milton To Stay In Philly
Philadelphia 76ers guard Shake Milton had his team option exercised by the organization on Tuesday. He'll return to the team as a key role player, but his fantasy value will be minimal. The Sixers have Joel Embiid, James Harden, Tyrese Maxey, and Tobias Harris as their main contributors. It's tough for anyone else to have... Read More
Hornets Not Offering Max Deal To Miles Bridges
Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges has surprisingly not been offered the max contract. Possibly, the Hornets don't believe any other organization will offer Bridges the max in free agency. Both the Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers have been rumored to be interested in Bridges. He could be a huge lift to both of those organizations,... Read More
Russell Westbrook Returning To Lakers
Los Angeles Lakers guard Russell Westbrook has decided to accept his $47.1 million player option for next season. As expected, Westbrook exercised his ridiculous option since he'd never get anything close to that in free agency. His first season in Los Angeles was a disaster, so another reason for Westbrook to stay rather than test... Read More
Suns Officially Tender Deandre Ayton
Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton will be a restricted free agent this summer. As expected, the Suns have officially tendered a $16.4M qualifying offer to Ayton. Despite this, it seems likely that Ayton will head elsewhere this offseason. He wants a max deal and the Suns don't seem to want to offer that high of... Read More
Pistons Exercise Team Option On Hamidou Diallo
Detroit Pistons guard Hamidou Diallo will be back with the organization next season. As expected, the Pistons have decided to exercise their $5.2 million team option on Diallo. He has been a solid piece for Detroit, so the team wants to keep him around. It'll be interesting to see how they split up the playing... Read More
Pistons Have Tendered Marvin Bagley III
Detroit Pistons forward Marvin Bagley III will be a restricted free agent this summer. The organization has tendered a $7.2 million qualifying offer to Bagley. As expected, the Pistons aren't going to let Bagley walk away after acquiring him this past deadline. They've started the process or re-signing Bagley, but we'll see what happens. The... Read More
Josh Okogie Expected To Leave Minnesota
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Josh Okogie is not expected to return with the team next season. The Wolves are unlikely to extend a qualifying offer to Okogie. He averaged 2.7 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 0.5 assists through 49 games last season. That being said, it's not surprising that the Wolves are expected to look elsewhere for... Read More
Kyrie Irving Sign-And-Trade Seems Likely
Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving has received permission from the team to find a sign-and-trade partner. As of right now, the Los Angeles Lakers appear to be the only team interested in Irving via a sign-and-trade. It's unlikely that the Lakers have anything to offer the Nets to pull Irving from them. The All-Star guard... Read More
Frank Jackson Unlikely To Return To Detroit
Detroit Pistons guard Frank Jackson is unlikely to remain with the organization next season. The Pistons have until Tuesday to decide on the team options with Jackson and Hamidou Diallo. James Edwards of The Athletic believes that the Pistons will keep Diallo, but move on from Jackson. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Pistons... Read More
Pistons Expected To Keep Hamidou Diallo
Detroit Pistons guard Hamidou Diallo is likely to remain with the team for at least one more season. Diallo was traded to Detroit mid-way through the 2020 campaign. He has played fairly well and is expected to be part of the young core in Detroit. The team option is worth $5.2 million, so very affordable... Read More
Josh Winder To Start On Tuesday
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Josh Winder will be called up to make a start against the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday. It's uncertain which game Winder will pitch since it is a doubleheader. The 25-year-old has made seven appearances (three starts) with the Twins this season. He has posted a 3.68 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 23/9... Read More
Aaron Judge Blasts Walk-Off Homer
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge put the finishing touches on what was an epic comeback victory on Sunday.

Matt Duffy Removed From Sunday's Contest
Los Angeles Angels infielder Matt Duffy (back) was removed early during Sunday's game against the Seattle Mariners. The 31-year-old was pulled out of the game due to lower back tightness.

Tanner Rainey Fires Scoreless Ninth Inning
Washington Nationals relief pitcher Tanner Rainey tossed a scoreless ninth inning during Sunday's victory over the Texas Rangers.

Rainey has been fairly reliable this season,... Read More
Mookie Betts Not Cleared For Baseball Activities
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts (ribs) has not been cleared for baseball activities yet, according to manager Dave Roberts. The organization was hopeful that Betts would return within two weeks. That timetable is not realistic and fantasy managers should expect Betts to be sidelined until around the All-Star break. This is certainly frustrating for... Read More
Kendall Graveman Records Third Save
Chicago White Sox relief pitcher Kendall Graveman was able to escape during Sunday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. First baseman Jose Abreu made two errors, which hurt, but luckily the White Sox had a three-run lead. Graveman was able to escape with his third save of the season. This was his first save since Liam... Read More

Michael Brantley Exits Early On Sunday
Houston Astros outfielder Michael Brantley (shoulder) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the New York Yankees. The veteran outfielder was pulled due to right shoulder discomfort.

Josh Hart Returning To Portland
Portland Trail Blazers forward Josh Hart will be returning for at least one more season. This wasn't a hard call for the organization with Hart only owed $12.9 million for the 2022-2023 campaign. Hart also has a mutual option for the following season, which means he could be in Portland for the next two years.... Read More
Cam Reddish Could Become Cap Casualty
New York Knicks forward Cam Reddish could be on the move this offseason. He appeared in only 15 games for the Knicks after his trade from Atlanta.

Jalen Brunson Could Join The Knicks
Dallas Mavericks guard Jalen Brunson could be headed elsewhere this offseason. He put together a career season and was a big part of why the Mavericks made it to the Western Conference Finals. That being said, there should be plenty of interest in Brunson this summer. He's an unrestricted free agent, which isn't great for... Read More

San Antonio Spurs forward Zach Collins will be around for at least one more season. The organization has decided to guarantee his $7.35 million contract for 2022.
