On June 20, Beijing time, the Nuggets' championship has passed, and fans are now paying attention to offseason trade trends, after the Wizards have reached a big deal with the Suns to exchange Beal for Paul and Shamet. In the past night, there are still 3 important news from the alliance, below, the author will introduce them one by one for you. First, the NBA quasi-champion Wen Banyama signed a contract, according to the sneaker name Depaula, Wenban Yama and a well-known sneaker brand reached an agreement. Second, Jaylen Brown will renew the Green Army under a 5-year contract close to $300 million, which is also a predictable outcome. Third, it was revealed that Zion will be traded away by the Pelicans before this Friday, Zion has been in negative press, and he has become a glass man, and he is likely to be sent away in the 2023 offseason.
First, the signing of the contract was reached
The Spurs have won the top pick, and there is no suspense that they will definitely take the talented star from France, Venbanyama, who is hailed as the most talented rookie in history, surpassing O'Neal and James. Counting down to joining the Spurs, and Popovich also decided to extend his contract for 3 years, his main task now is to help Ventanyama grow up as soon as possible, predictably, the Spurs' prospects are bright, and it may be that from the 23-24 season, the Spurs can get rid of the label of a fish-belly team and rise completely.
According to reporters, Venbanyama has signed a contract with a well-known sneaker brand, and the brand's spokesperson also includes the league's first person James. Vembanyama is the most anticipated rookie in 2023 and is considered one of the best players of all time without playing in the NBA. However, once the Pelicans' champion Zion was also praised, and even many fans were optimistic that he could catch up with James, and now, just a few years later, the 38-year-old James is still at his peak, and the young Zion has disappeared from everyone, and no team even wants him. Therefore, whether Venbanyama can adapt to the intensity of the NBA is crucial, and I hope the Spurs really pick the next Duncan.
Second, Brown is about to renew his contract with the Green Army for 5 years and $300 million
The Green Army, who lost to the Heat in this year's Eastern Conference Finals, were originally the first favorite to win the championship and did not even make it to the Finals, and the combination of Tatum and Brown disappointed fans again. After the news of the disintegration of the core squad after the Green Army was out, general manager Stevens' patience looked to have been exhausted. However, with the arrival of the offseason, the Green Army management changed its mind and intended to continue to retain the duo of Tatum + Jaylen Brown, according to Green Army reporter Adam Himmelsbach, there are indications that Brown will complete the extension of the contract with the Green Army, the contract is 5 years 295 million US dollars, the total value is close to 300 million US dollars, which is also the largest contract in NBA history, setting a record.
Brown is a very well-rounded offensive and defensive forward, he is also an All-Star, in terms of personal strength, Brown is at least a top 15 star in the league, his biggest advantage is youth, at least 10 years in his prime. After the Green Army renews Brown, it is expected to retain core players, however, the Suns form the horror big four of Durant + Booker + Beal + Ayton, while the Nuggets are the most balanced team in the league, and it will definitely be more difficult for the Green Army to win the championship next season, which would have been the best opportunity this year, but Tatum and Brown have been inconsistent.
Third, it was revealed that Zion left the team on Friday
The future of Pelicans-like Zion Williamson is also the focus of attention, and in the past few days, there has been a lot of peach news about him, Zion is honest on the outside, but very wild on the inside, which is also incredible. According to NBA Hall of Fame Bill Simmons, Zion will not be with the Pelicans after this Friday. This Friday, the 2023 NBA Draft takes place, which means Zion will be traded away before the draft.
In fact, the Pelicans have put Zion Williamson on the shelf and intend to build a team with Ingram as the core. Zion was indeed disappointed, his low attendance, frequent injuries, and Zion's private life was chaotic, which prevented him from focusing on basketball. There are also US media suggested that the Pelicans trade Zion and Murphy for Harden of the 76ers, but the possibility is relatively low, because Zion and Embiid both play inside, the two overlap, Embiid needs a guard player like Klay Thompson to open up space for him.
