@TheDunkCentral @TheSteinLine @JakeLFischer Talent talks . Teams want superstar and lamelo is one so all the teams afraid to put assets on the board need think long and hard " do you want a superstar or not? "

The Milwaukee Bucks are also showing interest in LaMelo Ball, per @TheSteinLine & @JakeLFischer “A trade for Ball would certainly do that. The Timberwolves and Raptors are the first two confirmed suitors, but league sources say that the Milwaukee Bucks have also registered interest. And there are presumed to be other teams making lodging interest with Charlotte despite the 24-year-old's injury history and at-times-erratic play.” (Via open.substack.com/pub/marcstein/…)

@untrillistik @Three_Cone I believe they fell in with a prospect of Christian Anderson that can be more to a team than lamelo. Not saying he will but kid has something if it wasnt so stacked of a class he would went alot sooner of the board

@ItsJinxQS @Three_Cone Lamelo finally gets a decent team & the first thing the hornets want to do is trade him 😂terrible franchise

Raptors have a ton of ways to make a LaMelo deal work, Timberwolves it’d pretty much have to be Gobert which I really don’t like the idea of, would destroy their defense Would love him on both teams though

@dreyttw @Three_Cone It be the margins you should be thinking about the wolves have been stuck where they have been for a couple of years now . Lamelo is superstar and his game brings so much gravity imagine that next to ant i believe a move like this would push a team over.

@ItsJinxQS @Three_Cone giving up a four time dpoy and a young player plus two FRPs for lamelo ball is just not worth it ngl

@dreyttw @Three_Cone Lamelo & Ant are the appeal plus they can give their young center in Joan Beringer some more minutes and finally run things differently

@ItsJinxQS @Three_Cone this is a terrible trade for the wolves lol

@k_clayt @JWeinbachNBA @TheSteinLine Picks were fillers but I can see the players get the deal done .

@ItsJinxQS @JWeinbachNBA @TheSteinLine This deal is impossible because the Wolves can't trade either of those picks.

The Timberwolves have emerged as a team with serious trade interest in LaMelo Ball, per @TheSteinLine. Minnesota’s proposed trade package to Charlotte would most likely revolve around four-time DPOY center Rudy Gobert.

Undrafted Vanderbilt forward AK Okereke has agreed to a two-way NBA deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, sources tell ESPN.

Grit n Grind 2.0 era is clearly coming in Memphis with Isaiah Stewart joining Cam Boozer, Zach Edey, Cedric Coward, and this whole young Grizzlies core.

I would anticipate the Lakers looking to move up agan from this pick.

It was always meant to be 👑

The Bucks could roll out an intriguing youth lineup next season. PG: Ryan Rollins SG: Brayden Burries SF: Jaime Jaquez Jr. PF: Nate Ament C: Kel’el Ware I’m excited to see Milwaukee embrace the youth movement moving forward.

The Lakers should consider moving Knecht for a second round pick and using that opportunity to draft Henry Veesaar.

@Legacyofembiid @gulleyboi2 @The1andOnly056 @ShamsCharania Lakers won 53 games last year. Are we really gonna sit here & scream defensive liabilities feel if they had an defensive big & another 3nD wing we wont be looking at it the same way

@gulleyboi2 @The1andOnly056 @ItsJinxQS @ShamsCharania True but he’s still a defensive liability. Not rational to pay a guy who’s not a 2way player that much money especially with Luka being one of the biggest Defensive liabilities in league

Los Angeles Lakers star Austin Reaves intends to sign a four-year, $185 million maximum contract to return to the franchise, with a player option for the final season in 2029-30, sources tell ESPN. Reaves declined his $14.9M player option for the new max deal.

@_iTzur @ShamsCharania AR15 deserves his contract . Every year from being undrafted has improved his numbers & took on more of a role . Add 3 solid defenders around him & luka they will be in the finals just like Kyrie & Luka

@ItsJinxQS @ShamsCharania L

@DiscussingFilm Cash or card sir?

@TheHoopCentral High upside guy with coach that can the most out of him !

JUST IN: Chris Cenac Jr. is drafted No. 27 overall by the Boston Celtics in the 2026 NBA Draft
