Commissioner Adam Silver informed the league's 30 general managers on Thursday that the NBA plans to make anti-tanking rule changes for next season, sources tell ESPN. Stakeholders have intensified dialogue about combatting tanking.
The Sacramento Kings have ruled De’Andre Hunter (eye), Zach LaVine (finger), Malik Monk (illness), Keegan Murray (ankle), Domantas Sabonis (knee) and Russell Westbrook (ankle) out for Wednesday’s game against the Utah Jazz.
BREAKING: The Los Angeles Clippers are trading James Harden to the Cleveland Cavaliers for Darius Garland and a second-round pick, sources tell ESPN. Prolific swap of the star point guards.
The tension between Chris Paul and the Clippers started after he quickly stood out as the leader of the second unit, which “routinely” beat the starters, per @ramonashelburne.
“The team envisioned Paul's role as an end-of-the-bench, veteran leader who needed little maintenance, sources said… We were kicking their a**, forward John Collins recently told ESPN. Every day, we were kicking [the starters'] a**.”
LaMelo Ball reportedly scared the Timberwolves away during the draft process when he said he wanted to be the President of the United States, per @JonKrawczynski
“So, we know they picked Edwards. But that’s not my little nugget for you all. It’s why they picked Edwards. There were a million different reasons in their evaluation. But one of them was that they had an interview with LaMelo Ball during this process—trying to figure out, ‘Hey, is this the guy for us?’ And LaMelo… did not interview very well. One of the questions they asked him was: ‘Hey LaMelo, after you’re done playing, what do you see yourself doing? What kind of things do you aspire to?’ And LaMelo said: ‘I want to be President of the United States.’”
