2025 NBA Free agency

Guard Collin Gillespie intends to sign a guaranteed one-year contract to return to the Phoenix Suns, sources tell ESPN.

Free agent forward Joe Ingles intends to sign a one-year, $3.6 million deal to return to the Minnesota Timberwolves, sources tell ESPN.

Brooklyn Nets intend to sign Day’Ron Sharpe to a two-year, $12 million deal, league sources told @hoopshype. Team option included.

 

Free agent forward Nicolas Batum intends to sign a two-year, $11.5 million deal to return to the Los Angeles Clippers, sources tell ESPN.

 

Clarkson is the guy for the full MLE. As much as I hate this player archetype, our bench could use an irrational confidence guy for like 20 minutes a game. Would be very useful for KD rest games as well. Perfect fit as long as we limit his minutes.

 

Al Horford is a ‘top target’ for the Golden State Warriors, per @TheSteinLine. “League sources say veteran center Al Horford will be a top target for Golden State. Jonathan Kuminga's restricted free agency, by contrast, is expected to be a slowing-moving process in Golden State. It did not appear, as of lunchtime Monday, that the Warriors or Kuminga's representation had a specific resolution in mind for the 22-year-old forward's immediate future.”

The Knicks are expected to show interest in Russell Westbrook, per @TheSteinLine. “Add the Pelicans, Knicks and Timberwolves to the ever-growing list of teams said to be in the market for veteran guards. The Knicks, in fact, are said to be a possible destination — in addition to Sacramento and a potential return to Denver — for Russell Westbrook.”

The Miami Heat and Chicago Bulls remain the two likeliest outside suitors for Jonathan Kuminga, per @anthonyVslater

How does this guy keep getting paid?

 

Consummate professional

Hmmm, I'm sure that throws some sort of wrench into everyone's plans since everyone was assuming 10%.

The Memphis Grizzlies and All-Star Jaren Jackson Jr. are expected to agree on a five-year, $240 million maximum renegotiation-and-extension, sources tell ESPN. Head of CAA Basketball Austin Brown and CAA agent Max Saidman negotiated the new agreement with the Grizzlies.

He is 6'10, can guard the post or perimeter, and isn't a total drain on the offensive end - smart enough to know when to shoot and when to stay out of the way.
