The more I think about this Brandon Clarke contract the crazier it gets.
They have him for $56 million over five years in totality. Mid-level money for half of a decade of a crazy versatile big’s prime. The Grizzlies are so good at this. – 6:34 PM

Damichael Cole @DamichaelC
Aldama is taller than Brandon Clarke, but BC is the 5 in this group. The Grizzlies like him at center because of his ability to roll to the rim and finish. Heights won’t change that. – 8:30 PM

Fresh off a 56-win season, the Grizzlies have made new inquiries to the Nets about Durant, those sources added. Memphis has five first-round draft picks available (four unprotected selections of its own and one protected via Golden State in 2024) to theoretically utilize in a trade as well as young players like Jaren Jackson Jr., Desmond Bane, Ziaire Williams, Brandon Clarke, Kennedy Chandler and David Roddy. -via The Athletic / August 22, 2022

It was surprising and also intriguing to hear from one team source that Jalen Green and Bruno Fernando were defensive standouts on Day 1. We touched on Green’s improved physique on media day, which will be important for his endeavors on defense. Porter touched on the significance during media day, acknowledging the scoring talent of the group but understanding that they were smaller and needed to have better effort, energy and move in one accord. Porter took strides last year as a defender. Could we see the same for Green in his second season? -via The Athletic / September 28, 2022

Free agents left on the Wolves radar: Frank Kaminsky, Gorgui Dieng… and maybe Boogie Cousins? I’m waiting to hear a little bit more information on that. Also, I was told they may wait out the KD and Kyrie situations that when those two players are traded, likely separate trades, that other players could hit the market. Maybe somebody ends up in Brooklyn, Brooklyn buys out that player. So the Wolves may wait out those situations before adding another free agent. -via Apple Podcasts / July 4, 2022

The Lakers have a strong interest in retaining Monk, but it will depend on both his market and the quality of 3-and-D wings available to Los Angeles, according to league sources. Players the Lakers will target with their full taxpayer midlevel exception include Otto Porter Jr., Nicolas Batum, Gary Harris, T.J. Warren, Caleb Martin, Cody Martin, Mo Bamba and Danuel House Jr., according to multiple league sources. Players the Lakers will be interested in for the partial midlevel exception or minimum contracts include Nemanja Bjelica, Jeremy Lamb, Jevon Carter and Juan Toscano-Anderson, according to league sources. -via The Athletic / June 30, 2022
The Lakers and Raptors are expected to be among the teams interested in Bamba, per sources. Orlando has not ruled out a Bamba return, a source told SI, but the Magic have set a price for Bamba and are unwilling to go above it. -via Sports Illustrated / June 30, 2022
