Restricted free agent Tari Eason has agreed to a five-year, $81.5 million deal to return to the Houston Rockets, sources tell ESPN. The deal is fully guaranteed for Eason.
Did a deep dive on Walker Kessler, scouting his game, what he does well, what schemes work best for him, and how he fits with the Lakers.
Then wrote about whether or not it was worth what the Lakers did to get him.

Billy Donovan has agreed to become the lead assistant coach for the San Antonio Spurs and head coach Mitch Johnson, sources tell me and @PeteThamel. After 11 seasons as a head coach in Chicago and Oklahoma City, Donovan accepts the position with the Western Conference champions.
Oklahoma City is allowed to exceed the second apron because they have bird rights on Kenrich Williams.
A reminder that the 2nd apron doesn’t restrict teams from keeping their own free agents.
Just had a great conversation with Lupe. It’s all love and respect on both ends. We spoke about context, misunderstandings, misinterpretations and intentions. Spoke about everything from The Monster Freestyle and the 2010 live stream up until his recent visits on various podcast. It’s no smoke lol, just lighthearted friendly Hip Hop conversation. Everyone relax.

@ShamsCharania Mike Gansey since replacing Morey:

Safe to say Philly upgraded from Morey
Just in: Free agent guard Anfernee Simons has agreed to a two-year, $12.3 million deal with the Philadelphia 76ers, with a player option in second season, sources tell ESPN. Simons chose the 76ers over other suitors believing his fit is perfect with the revamped 76ers roster.
Luka really sticks his neck out for the moves he wants. It’s a completely different experience from past stars, or guys like Giannis, who did everything they could to make it seem like none of it was their idea. Proof you can be honest and still not be the villain.
Good for Luka.
It’s so nasty all the NEGATIVE things I’m seeing people say about Jaylen Brown!!! I don’t care how yall talk about bros game, it’s all opinion based anyway! Please stay away from talking about the PERSON and his character!!!! He’s real as they come! Don’t get it twisted people
Sources: New York Knicks have tried feverishly to trade for New Orleans Pelicans center Yves Missi after losing Mitchell Robinson, but offers have been rejected multiple times. Pelicans view Missi as a vital core figure and the message is that he’s unavailable.
