    Spurs' Dylan Harper: Undergoes thumb surgery
    2h ago

    The Spurs announced Harper underwent surgery on his injured left thumb Friday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

    Harper was selected No. 2 overall in the 2025 NBA Draft and is expected to be a big part of the future for the storied franchise. The team hopes he'll be ready for the start of the 2025-26 campaign, which will get underway on Oct. 22 on the road against the Mavericks.

    Thunder's Thomas Sorber: Suffers torn ACL
    3h ago

    The Thunder announced Friday that Sorber has sustained a torn ACL in his right knee during an offseason workout, NBA reporter Marc Stein reports.

    Sorber was selected No. 15 overall in the 2025 NBA Draft out of Georgetown by the reigning NBA champions. The rookie center was already dealing with a foot injury that cut his season with the Hoyas short and kept him out of the Summer League. Now he'll likely have to wait until the 2026-27 campaign to make his debut on the professional level.

    Lyles signed a contract with Real Madrid on Thursday, NBA reporter Marc Stein reports.

    Lyles spent his third straight season with the Kings during the 2024-25 campaign, averaging 6.5 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 69 appearances. He's since elected to try his hand overseas, where he'll suit up for Real Madrid of the EuroLeague and should immediately take on a significant role.

    Grizzlies' Olivier-Maxence Prosper: Joins Memphis on two-way deal
    1d ago

    Prosper (wrist) signed a two-way contract with the Grizzlies on Thursday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.

    The Mavericks were forced to let go of Prosper in order to sign Dante Exum. Charania notes that Prosper generated a lot of interest elsewhere before he ultimately agreed to join the Grizzlies. Because he's on a two-way deal, Prosper could spend a lot of time with the Memphis Hustle in the G League to open the season.

    Nets' Cam Thomas: Signs qualifying offer
    1d ago

    Thomas (hamstring) signed his one-year, $6 million qualifying offer with the Nets on Thursday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.

    Thomas and the Nets were unable to reach a long-term agreement. By signing this qualifying offer, Thomas will have a full no-trade clause and will be able to hit unrestricted free agency next offseason. Charania notes that at least 10 NBA teams will be positioned to have ample cap space, and Thomas will have plenty of motivation to produce a big season. Thomas averaged 24.0 points, 3.8 assists and 3.3 rebounds in 31.2 minutes per game last season, but he appeared in only 25 regular-season contests because of hamstring injuries.

    Wizards' Alex Sarr: Suffers calf injury in EuroBasket
    3d ago

    Sarr (calf) will miss the rest of the EuroBasket tournament, but he's expected to be ready for the start of the regular season, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

    The severity of the issue is unclear, though Sarr won't need surgery to address the problem. His status will still be worth monitoring this fall, as it's possible the 2024 No. 1 overall pick will have his reps limited in training camp in some capacity due to the setback. If Sarr is restricted in any way to begin the new year, Tristan Vukcevic, Anthony Gill and Marvin Bagley are the next men up on Washington's depth chart at center.

    Sarr (rest) contributed seven points and four rebounds for France in Thursday's 92-64 EuroBasket victory over Belgium.

    Sarr made two appearances in the Las Vegas Summer League before the Wizards shut him down, and he's since returned to action ahead of the new season. The 2024 No. 1 overall pick is looking to take another step forward in 2025-26, as Sarr averaged 15.6 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.4 steals per game following last year's All-Star break but shot just 39.5 percent from the floor during this stretch.

    Lakers' Kylor Kelley: Secures Exhibit 10 deal

    Kelley agreed to an Exhibit 10 contract with the Lakers on Monday, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Kelley will join the Lakers for training camp and will get the opportunity to compete for a spot on the 15-man roster or a two-way slot, though Los Angeles will retain his G League rights in the event that he gets waived before the start of the regular season. The big man appeared in 11 games between the Mavericks and Pelicans in 2024-25, averaging 3.1 points and 3.5 rebounds across 11.5 minutes per game.

    Dante's (ankle) contract with the Hawks became official on Tuesday.

    The Hawks signed Dante to a two-year, $4.5 million offer sheet back on Saturday, and the Rockets declined to match the deal. He's unlikely to crack the rotation early on in Atlanta, and he could see the bulk of his minutes in the G League.

    Edwards was waived by the Timberwolves on Saturday.

    Edwards signed a new two-way contract with the organization in June but will now have to explore other opportunities. The 25-year-old big man spent most of the 2024-25 campaign with the team's G League affiliate, the Iowa Wolves, during which he averaged 11.9 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.8 blocks and 1.4 assists across 25.1 minutes per game in 34 outings.

    Mavericks' P.J. Washington: Lands $90 million extension

    Washington and the Mavericks agreed to a four-year, $90 million extension Wednesday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.

    Washington had one year left on his deal for $14.1 million and will now be locked up in Dallas through the 2029-30 season. During the 2024-25 regular season, the 27-year-old averaged 14.7 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 blocks and 1.1 steals while shooting 38.1 percent from beyond the arc. His role is likely to be reduced in 2025-26, however, with the Mavericks adding Cooper Flagg into the mix. Washington still figures to play a pivotal role off the bench.

    76ers' Adem Bona: Returns to play for Turkey

    Bona (rest) logged six points and two rebounds for Turkey in Friday's 92-78 EuroBasket win over the Czech Republic.

    Bona missed the tail end of the Las Vegas Summer League for rest purposes, but he's returned to action and is all set for the 2025-26 campaign. Much of Bona's fantasy appeal to open the new season hinges upon the health of Joel Embiid (knee) and Andre Drummond (toe). Last season, Bona averaged 13.7 points, 8.3 rebounds and 2.5 blocks in 28.7 minutes per game over his final 15 appearances for the depleted 76ers.

    Tshiebwe will be on a two-way deal with Utah for the second straight season. He played in 14 regular-season games with the squad during the 2024-25 campaign, averaging 7.6 points and 8.7 rebounds across 18.2 minutes per game, shooting 60 percent from the field. He also put up some monster numbers during his time with the Salt Lake City Stars in the G League, averaging 17.1 points, 19.1 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.0 blocks per game while shooting 59.4 percent from the floor.

    After trading for RJ Luis (knee) on Tuesday, the Celtics have waived Norris from his two-way contract. The 25-year-old forward spent most of last season in the G League before signing a two-year, two-way pact with Boston in March. Over 44 G League appearances between the Maine Celtics and Memphis Hustle during the 2024-25 season, Norris averaged 16.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 steals across 30.5 minutes per game.

    Markkanen racked up 48 points and nine rebounds in Friday's 105-62 win over Belgium during Finland's EuroBasket 2025 preparation game.

    Markkanen drained seven three-pointers in just 25 minutes of court time to power Finland to victory in Friday's exhibition contest. The star forward missed the final 12 games of this past regular season due to a left knee injury, but fantasy managers should be pleased to see Markkanen back on the court ahead of the 2025-26 season. The Jazz lost John Collins, Collin Sexton and Jordan Clarkson this offseason, which sets up Markkanen with plenty of usage to soak up next year.

    The Nets signed Liddell to a two-way contract Wednesday, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Liddell made 12 brief regular-season appearances for the Bulls in 2024-25, averaging 4.4 minutes per game, and he'll get his next chance with Brooklyn in 2025-26. Given the two-way deal, the 2023 second-rounder is likely to spend most of his time with the G League's Long Island Nets while the parent club is healthy. Liddell most recently participated in the Las Vegas Summer League with the Nuggets, averaging 7.8 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.8 blocks in 23.4 minutes covering four outings.

The 26-year-old swingman logged a mere 5.3 minutes per game over 19 regular-season appearances with the Trail Blazers a year ago, so Minaya likely won't see much playing time with the parent club even if he makes the cut this fall.

It's unclear how far along he is in his rehab, which could impact his value before training camp. After the calendar flipped to 2025, Prosper averaged 5.1 points, 2.9 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.7 steals in 14.1 minutes per game over his final 30 regular-season appearances.

    The severity of Bogdanovic's injury is unclear, though his status will be worth monitoring ahead of the Clippers' preseason opener against the Nuggets on Oct. 12. The sharpshooter was acquired by Los Angeles from Atlanta in February and averaged 11.4 points, 3.2 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 2.0 three-pointers across 25.0 minutes per game in 30 regular-season appearances (four starts) with the Clippers.

    Strus suffered the injury during an offseason workout, and he's now set to miss at least the first month of the regular season. De'Andre Hunter is the next man up on Cleveland's depth chart at small forward, so his fantasy stock is certainly on the rise ahead of the new year.

However, the superstar has been cleared to return to practice and is expected to be ready by the start of EuroBasket against Poland on Aug. 28.
