On September 30, Beijing time, with the end of the offseason, the training camp has gradually begun, but the league's teams that are not too satisfied with their own rosters continue to adjust, and just this past day, the league has several pieces of news. According to US media suggestions, the Hawks Celtics will let Jaylen Brown join the Atlanta Hawks through a 4-for-1 deal; The Spurs Heat will send Taylor Hiro to the San Antonio Spurs with a 3-for-1 deal, so let's take a look at it together.

The Nets cut Marcus Zegaroski

According to New York Post reporter Brian Lewis, the Nets cut guard Marcus Zegaroschi for the second time in less than two weeks.

As the 49th overall pick in 2021, Zegaroski has performed well in three seasons at Clayton University, averaging 14.1 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.1 steals per game, shooting 47.1% from the field and 42.3% from three-point range.

Caruso will replace Ball in the starting line-up

According to Sport reporter Darnell Maybury, Alex Caruso is one of the candidates to replace Ball in the starting lineup because Caruso has recovered from knee surgery. However, Caruso himself said: "I have always thought that the team is the first and try to win the game. If I play first, then we do it. If I had to come on as a substitute, it wouldn't matter. I always think about how to win the game and not how to play. ”

The Bucks want to get Jordan Clarkson through a trade

According to Sports reporter Tony Jones, the Bucks showed great interest in trading the Jazz's Jordan Clarkson, but the Jazz rejected the Bucks' trade proposal. The Jazz aren't interested in the trading chips the Bucks give George Hill. One of the league's highest-scoring bench players, Clarkson averaged 16 points per game last season. Clarkson's four-year, $51.52 million contract has two years remaining, and Hill's $4 million contract expires at the end of the season, so the Bucks need to come up with some cash to balance their salaries.

The Lakers missed Bojan Bogdanovich

According to Pistons reporter Keith Langlois, the Lakers and Suns were both chasing Bojan Bogdanovich, but were eventually traded to the Pistons. But Bogdanovic says he doesn't care where he stays; "I don't have any preferences," Bogdanovich said, "and there are a lot of rumors, who knows if that's true?" I am very happy and excited to be a part of the Pistons. ”

Vucevic had worried about swapping himself with Gobert

According to Joe Cowley, a reporter for the Chicago Sun-Times, there was speculation that Bulls center Nikolai Vucevic would swap with Jazz center Rudy Gobert in the offseason, and Vucevich, whose contract was about to expire, had serious doubts that the deal would happen. It wasn't until Gobert was traded to the Timberwolves that he was slightly relieved. "Rumors are part of this alliance," Vucevich said, "whether these words are true or not, I have no control." I focused on what I could control, and in the end, I got some pleasure from jazz's rumors. I didn't think it was going to happen at all. ”

The Spurs Heat traded 3 for 1 and Taylor Hiro joined the San Antonio Spurs

James Piercey, a well-known website reporter of today's US media, gave a 3-for-1 transaction plan between the Heat and the Spurs. Specifically: The Miami Heat won Romero Longford, a 2023 first-round pick from the Warriors and a 2025 first-round pick from the Hawks. The San Antonio Spurs won Taylor Hiro.

The top team just sent away the star Shōtai Murray this offseason, and now they have to exchange two first-round picks for Taylor Hiro, does that mean Hiro is better than Murray? The answer is yes. The Spurs have been rebuilding around Murray for the first few seasons, but the reality shows that the Spurs' road to reconstruction has been difficult. While Hiro has been playing sixth in the Heat, there has never been a team rebuilding around him, and Hiro has shown his potential as a super scorer. Hiro averaged 32.6 minutes per game with the Heat last season and could have 20.7 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.1 blocks, shooting 44.7% from the field and 39.9% from three-point range. If he can go to the Spurs and get the training of the Popovich master, Hiro is expected to become the next Ginobili.

For the Heat, Hiro's contract is about to expire next season, and Hiro has released the word that he will enter the free agent market to see how he is worth, and then decide whether to negotiate a contract extension with the Heat. If Hiro doesn't renew his contract with the Heat next season, the Heat will get nothing out of the way. The Heat also paid off for trading Hiro for two first-round picks from the Spurs.

Hawks Celtics 4 for 1, Jaylen Brown joined the Atlanta Hawks

Today, the US media NBA Analysis Network gave a 1-for-1 trade plan between the Atlanta Hawks and the Boston Celtics. Specifically: Boston Celtics won John Collins, DeAndre Hunt, 2023 first-round picks, and 2024 first-round picks (from the Spurs); The Atlanta Hawks won Jaylen Brown.

The biggest winner of the deal is the Atlanta Eagles, because the Celtics want to use Brown to exchange Durant for the Nets during the offseason, which has triggered strong dissatisfaction with the team's management, and at one point it was rumored that Brown, who returned to free time next season, may join his hometown team Atlanta Eagles to join Trae Young. The deal will satisfy Brown's desire to play for his hometown team. If Brown succeeds in joining the Atlanta Hawks, the team will form a super backcourt combination consisting of Trae Young + Murray + Brown, then the Hawks will be a strong contender for the championship. Last season, Brown averaged 33.6 minutes per game and could score 23.6 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.3 blocks, shooting 47.3% from the field and 35.8% from three-point range.

It's a lot of bad news for the Celtics, and Brown's departure will cast a shadow over the team's road to title race. But the team's offseason operations have broken Brown's heart. Deals that have traditionally involved stars unhappy with the team are rarely perfect, and perhaps the Celtics should be more careful to keep their core players away from trade rumors.
