The Lakers locked Redick as the new hot pick

According to well-known journalist Shams, sources have revealed that the Lakers are locking in JJ Redick as the frontrunner for the team's next head coach. No final decision has been made yet, and the Lakers still have some steps left in their search for a head coach, but there are signs that Redick is their top pick at this stage.

It is reported that in the past few weeks, the Lakers have been focusing on two candidates in the coach selection - Redick and Pelicans assistant coach James Borrego.

Redick was the first candidate to have an in-person meeting with the Lakers three weeks ago, and Borrego had his second in-person meeting with Lakers officials last week, and the team was impressed with him in the process, according to team sources. Anthony Davis and Borrego worked briefly in New Orleans and have recently developed a rapport.

Redick is a media analyst who will serve as a television commentator for the NBA Finals kicking off in Boston, leading to widespread belief in the NBA industry that the Lakers may officially announce the hiring after the series.

The Lakers had offered Willis to pursue Irving

Lakers reporter Dave McMenamin reported that the Lakers had made an offer to the Nets for Willis + two first-round picks in exchange for Irving, but it didn't come to fruition; The reporter said: The Lakers were one of several teams to aggressively pursue Irving before the trade deadline, but in the end, the Nets sent Irving to the Mavericks in a trade that included Dinwiddie, Finney-Smith, a 2029 unprotected first-round pick and two second-round picks. According to sources, the Lakers' offer is focused on Willis and two first-round picks in 2027 and 2029.

Speaking about Irving recently, James said: I always thought that Irving was a wizard, he could do anything on the court. I'm really happy and proud to sit here and watch Irving grow. But at the same time, I was angry because I wasn't his partner anymore. I will always miss that time.

Lao Zhan also said: When your team has a 'strongest form' player like Owen, it's like you have a +4 card with the UNO card in your hand. Irving averaged only 6-8 points per game in the first half of this year's second round, right? But in the second half, he was able to score 16-20 points. I watched his performance in the G1 of the Western Conference finals, and he scored 24 points in the first half, and I was thinking at the time, maybe the Mavericks can not only win the Western Conference finals this year, but also win the championship because they have Irving. ”

"I don't have any words to praise Irving, he's the most talented player I've ever seen in the NBA, and I've never seen anyone in my NBA career shoot better than him, who can shoot with both his left and right hands. His left-handed throw-up against the Nuggets in the regular season was one of the most bombastic I've ever seen. ”

 The Rockets are brewing a big deal

According to Kevin O'Connor of The Athletic, the Rockets have been in trade talks with the Nets and Grizzlies with the pick, and the Rockets are looking for an opportunity to acquire Mikal Bridges, but the Nets don't want to trade Bridges, they want to find more help for Bridges, and the Grizzlies want to get 2024 rookie Klingen through an upward trade.

In the 2024 draft, the Rockets have the No. 9 pick, and the Grizzlies have the No. 9 pick.

In the regular season this season, Bridges played in 82 games with the Nets, averaging 19.6 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.6 assists in 34.8 minutes per game, shooting 43.5%, 37.2% and 81.4% from three.

Towns could be traded by the Timberwolves

According to ESPN's Brian Windhorst, the Timberwolves are expected to re-evaluate Towns if they change owners. "I don't think the team will cut salaries significantly, but I believe if the Timberwolves change owners in the offseason, I'll be skeptical about it for a variety of reasons," the reporter said. I don't think they're going to break up the team to save money, but if there is a change of boss, Downs' role may be reassessed.

As previously reported, Timberwolves owner Glenn Taylor is competing with a consortium of Rohr and Rodriguez for ownership of the Timberwolves. NBA sources inside the NBA say the Rohr and Rodriguez consortium is more frugal and they may trade Towns to save on paychecks and luxury tax.

It is understood that the start of the 2025-26 season will see a nearly threefold expansion of the NBA's new media rights deals, which will bring in a lot of money for existing team owners in the coming years.

A lot of free agents want to join Wembanyama

ESPN draft expert Jonathan Givony said there is news that the Spurs may be considering packing the No. 4 and No. 8 picks for a chance to get the No. 1 pick.

Spurs are reportedly likely to opt for one of Sarr and Risache.

Givony also reported that the Spurs want to win, and all I've heard is that they want to be competitive next year, they want to make the playoffs. They don't want to go through the process for another 2-3 years and don't want to stay in the lotto area. I've heard that the Spurs are tradeable with the exception of Wembanyama and Vassell, and they can also trade future draft picks. Every free agent, veteran defender wants to play with Wembanyama.

The Cavaliers and 76ers are interested in Ingram

According to Ashish Mathur, the Cavaliers and 76ers are interested in trading for Ingram. Ingram's salary this season is $33.83 million, and the 2024-25 season is the final year of his current contract with a salary of $36.02 million.

It is reported that the Pelicans are reluctant to give Ingram a contract extension with a maximum salary, and they are more likely to trade Ingram in the offseason.

In the regular season, Ingram averaged 20.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.7 assists per game, and in the playoffs, Ingram averaged 14.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1 steal and 1.3 blocks per game while shooting 34.5% from the field.

The 76ers can re-sign Embiid Maxey this summer

According to 76ers reporter Keith Pompey, the 76ers could re-sign Embiid and Maxey in the offseason; Embiid could sign a three-year, $193.5 million contract extension with the 76ers, and the 76ers are also expected to give Maxey a five-year, $205 million extension.

The 76ers also reportedly intend to bring in a top-paid player, targeting Paul George, James, Butler and Ingram.

Embiid currently has two years left on his contract, $106.6 million, and a player option worth $59 million in the final year. Maxey's contract has expired and he will be a restricted free agent this offseason.

The Thunder are interested in Pawe

 According to American journalist Darnell Mayberry, the Thunder are very interested in Patrick Williams; If the Bulls have decided that Patrick Williams is at the end of their ceiling, there's one team that will be very interested in him, and that team is the Thunder. The Thunder need a tall player with a lot of draft picks, and if the Bulls can sign and trade him in July, the Bulls can get a lot of leverage from the Thunder.

Patrick Williams, whose contract expires this summer, will be out for the season in 2023-24 when he played in 43 regular-season games for the Bulls, averaging 10 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game.

Other developments of the alliance -

The Bulls are reportedly happy to sign DeRozan to a two-year contract extension, which could be in excess of $40 million a year, though DeRozan will apparently be eager for a longer guaranteed contract.

Porzingis will make a comeback in G1 in the finals, and I said: My goal is to make a comeback in G1, and I am getting better every day; It's hard to sit on the sidelines and watch the game, but now I'm happy to finally get the chance to play and play with my team-mates.

Former NBA player Chandler Parsons said Doncic had a feud with Porzingis when they were teammates. To this, Doncic responded with a smile: I have probably talked to Chandler Parsons twice in my life, so, I don't know how he knows this, I want to say that I have a good relationship with Porzingis.

According to Woj, the Cavaliers have been cleared to interview Nuggets assistant coach David Adelman. Adelman has previously met with the Lakers, and Warriors assistant coach Atkinson and Pelicans assistant coach Borrego are also popular candidates for the Cavaliers position.
