Charania The Boston Celtics are in some cases asking for at least four 1st round picks Giannis went for 3

Charania I had one executive tell me last night that the Clippers were essentially acting like a power agent brokering deals for Kawhi Leonard That's millions and millions of cash flow coming into Kawhi By mid-2021 Kawhi had pocketed tens of millions of dollars in no-show endorsement deals

Krawczynski The Wolves did have real discussions with the Celtics about Jaylen Brown Celtics wanted Rudy and Naz and it was going to be just too high of a price to pay I do think the Wolves are happier with the LaMelo fit

Charnia Going back to Toronto this is a complete legacy play for Kawhi Detroit Minnesota and other teams wanted to trade for him and extend him

Paul George jokes about catching the Celtics off guard in their 1st-round loss against the 76ers Joe Mazzulla briefly but seriously considers engaging in catastrophic life-threatening violence

Charania The Knicks and Karl-Anthony Towns unlikely to reach contract extension Towns is eligible for a 4-year 276M max extension He has a 61M player option for the 2027-28 season and could become a free agent This is a cloud going into training camp
