Before diving into our chat with Tyus Jones and Jeff Weltman, along with video from summer league practice, I wanted to share that #Magic rookie Jase Richardson has a sore right ankle but is “progressing well,” per coach Ameer Bahhur, who added they’re “not too worried about it.”

Heat get - Norman Powell Clippers get - John Collins Jazz get - Kevin Love, Kyle Anderson, 2027 second-round pick

It doesn't look like Caleb will be back with Tyus Jones selecting to wear #2.

PHX: Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, Khaman Maluach, Rasheer Fleming, Koby Brea, Daeqwon Plowden, 2nd HOU: Kevin Durant, Clint Capela BKN: 2 2nds GSW: Alex Toohey, Jahmai Mashack ATL: 2nd swap, David Roddy, cash LAL: Adou Thiero MIN: Rocco Zikarsky, 2 2nds, cash Terms of the first ever NBA trade involving seven teams.

The Memphis Grizzlies are trading center Jay Huff to the Indiana Pacers for one second-round pick and one second-round pick swap, sources tell ESPN.

The Houston Rockets are trading Cam Whitmore to the Washington Wizards for two second-round picks, sources tell ESPN. The deal gives Whitmore a tremendous opportunity for an increased role as he turns 21 on Tuesday and returns to the DMV area.

Correction on this: I forgot Desmond Bane has a bonus in his deal, so things are tighter to that first-apron hard cap for Orlando than I had below. They've got room for Penda on a 2RPE deal or a vet minimum signing. Can't currently fit in both. Plenty of time to clear room though.

The #Magic have officially signed second-round pick Noah Penda.

Update: Moe Wagner will have a no-trade clause in his one-year, $5 million deal with the Orlando Magic, league sources told @hoopshype

Bringing back Moe Wagner at $5M, I've got the Magic at about $4.3M over the luxury tax with two open roster spots. Orlando is hard-capped at the first apron from using the NTMLE on Tyus Jones, and has about $3.7M in clearance underneath the first apron. That's enough room for Noah Penda on a second round pick exception deal, plus a veteran minimum signing. I'm guessing we sign Houstan back on the vet min. Helluva off-season by Weltman and Parker.

The Houston Rockets and Kevon Harris have agreed to a two-way deal, Senior VP of @CSETalent Darrell Comer told @hoopshype. Harris was G League Next Up Game MVP and signed a 10-day deal with the Atlanta Hawks last season. He averaged 19.8 points and 7.1 rebounds in the G League.

The New Orleans Pelicans have waived Antonio Reeves, league sources told @hoopshype. The 24-year-old guard averaged 6.9 points on 45.6% shooting from the field and 39.5% from 3-point range in 44 games for the Pelicans last season. In his last 10 games, he averaged 15.4 points. He'll make a good two-way option.

Mavericks assistant God Shammgod has agreed to join the #Magic staff as an assistant coach under coach Jamahl Mosley, a league source told the @orlandosentinel. ESPN first. https://x.com/therealBeede/status/1940577300069876053 Dallas Mavericks player development coach God Shammgod has agreed to join the Orlando Magic as an assistant coach, Andy Miller of Klutch Sports tells ESPN. Shammgod has worked for the Mavericks since 2019 and now receives a larger role in Orlando.

BREAKING: The Knicks expected to hire Mike Brown as their next head coach, the Post has learned. Long search is over to replace Tom Thibodeau. Brown arrives with a 454-304 career record and two Coach of the Year awards.

The Utah Jazz reportedly want two first-round picks and a young player in exchange for Walker Kessler, per @jovanbuha “I’ve just heard nothing but they want two picks plus a young player for Walker Kessler. So the Lakers cannot do that trade. They can give one pick and one young player and a swap.”

Georgia Tech’s Lance Terry will join the Orlando Magic for NBA Summer League, I’m told. The bouncy, sharp-shooting 6’3” guard led the Yellow Jackets in scoring this season. All-Big South Honorable Mention at Gardner-Webb before transferring up to the ACC.

According to league sources, most of the discussions the Raptors were involved with dated back a month ago, and involved trading the No. 9-overall pick in the draft, along with salary — which why RJ Barrett’s name was often mentioned — for an impact player. The Raptors talked to Boston about Derrick White, Memphis about Desmond Bane and Phoenix about Kevin Durant. They price for Bane (four first-round picks and a pick swap) was too steep; the Raptors didn’t want to part with Jakob Poeltl in a Durant deal and the Celtics' White would have commanded a price commensurate with Bane, if not more.

Latest update from Marc Stein: “Longtime Mavericks player development specialist God Shammgod, whose Mavericks contract expired Monday, has too received strong external interest and is increasingly expected to join Jamahl Mosley’s coaching staff in Orlando after Shammgod and Mosley worked together as Mavericks assistant coaches under Carlisle.”

Memphis Grizzlies star Jaren Jackson Jr. sustained a turf toe injury while playing off-site of the team’s facility and will require a surgical procedure. No recovery timeline established yet.

Free agent guard Tre Mann has agreed to a three-year, $24 million deal with the Charlotte Hornets, sources tell ESPN. Hornets officials and Mann's agent Aaron Turner of Verus Sports negotiated terms of the new contract in free agency.

Scoop Ex-Pistons player Malik Beasley's money problems ran so deep he pledged his current and future NBA contracts as collateral in one deal and stiffed his dentist. That dentist started seizing part of Beasley's NBA paychecks in February. Yeah, he's finished.

UPDATE: Year 2 for Duncan Robinson is partially-guaranteed. Non-guaranteed Year 3.

Lakers working on a trade for a C according to Dave McMenimen. https://x.com/CantBeatAudel/status/1940161194415071518

Free agent shooter Duncan Robinson has agreed to a three-year, $48 million deal with the Detroit Pistons, sources tell ESPN. Agent Jason Glushon navigated multiple options in the market, which included potential return to Miami or move elsewhere. Now Robinson lands in Detroit.
