I think we’re going to hear Kyrie Irving linked to Dallas now because Jalen Brunson is leaving whether or not the Mavericks are really interested.
They might be, but even if they aren’t, it behooves the Nets to pretend there are serious suitors just for leverage with the Lakers. – 5:11 PM

Jalen Brunson goes to Knicks, a team for whom Rick Brunson played and works, a team that Leon Rose runs, and Leon Rose was Rick Brunson’s agent, and Leon Rose – reportedly – is Jalen Brunson’s godfather, and Leon Rose is Sam Rose’s father, and Sam Rose is Jalen Brunson’s agent. – 5:10 PM

The Knicks have a couple of options for structuring a 4-yr, $110M contract for Jalen Brunson.
Conventional structure would be:
1: $25.6M
2: $26.9M
3: $28.1M
4: $29.4M
But they have the cap room to make it decreasing, which could be:
1: $29.7M
2: $28.2M
3: $26.8M
4: $25.3M – 5:09 PM

On the plus side for the Knicks they can lose out on Jalen Brunson today and still wouldn’t be the biggest tire fire in New York basketball – 3:44 PM

One domino effect of a hypothetical Jalen Brunson sign-and-trade to Miami is that it would essentially open up the full MLE to be used on a free agent, since the team would be hard capped already. – 9:50 AM

With DeAndre Ayton to #Nets rumors rampant, #Heat getting a meeting with Jalen Brunson and #spurs trading Dejounte Murray to #Hawks, there are not a whole bunch of unrestricted free agency options for Leon Rose and the #Knicks. Huge day for him. Hope he has Plans B and C. – 9:27 AM

Mavs free agent PG Jalen Brunson will meet with Knicks (considered the heavy front-runner for him), Dallas and Heat this week, per @Chris Haynes .. Would require sign and trade with Miami, which already has Kyle Lowry at PG…. NBA (legal) floodgates open at 6 tomorrow. – 6:12 PM

More on this storyline
Marc Stein: Update: League sources tell me that the Mavericks’ scheduled meeting tonight with Jalen Brunson is OFF. More NBA from me: marcstein.substack.com -via Twitter @TheSteinLine / June 30, 2022
It isn’t clear Brunson would be willing to return to the Mavericks even if they matched New York’s offer, something that has affected the resignation team sources have expressed to The Athletic about his presumed departure. But as recently as Tuesday, Dallas also hadn’t yet been prepared to increase their offer. We’ll see if that changes. -via The Athletic / June 30, 2022
