Brandon Ingram and Zion Williamson were asked how they would celebrate if they won the NBA In-Season Tournament. They both looked at one another and immediately cracked up. I don't think I have ever seen Zion laugh that hard. Ingram: "Nah, we ain't thought about it.".

I’ve never seen this happen. With 3.2 seconds and down four points, Josh Green hits a three to put Charlotte down one against the Knicks. However, it took all 3 seconds for the ball to actually go in the hoop.

Trading Karl-Anthony Towns the year after they were on the doorsteps to the NBA Finals made no sense for the Timberwolves. Sure, the financial ramifications were tough, but if you want to win, you have to pay. This organization has set themselves back years.

Paolo Banchero and Bennedict Mathurin have highlighted this year's rookie class, but if we are talking about which rookie has made the biggest impact to his team right away, it has been OKC's Jalen Williams (@JdubPSCEO).

Heading into draft week, all indications point towards Alex Sarr being the Wizards’ pick at No. 2 overall. The Hawks have a major choice between Donovan Clingan and Zaccharie Risacher. While a trade is always a possibility, it appears as if one of them will be going to ATL.

Building off of this, the Warriors, Knicks, and Magic are three teams that do in fact have interest in Paul George, league sources told @ClutchPoints. Some around the league are wondering if the Thunder and Heat would consider pursuing George if he departs LA.

Paul George’s situation with the Clippers is very interesting. Should the Clippers decide not to pay George what he wants, it may not be an Eastern Conference team that pursues George. Keep a very close eye on the Warriors regarding George if Klay Thompson is to leave.

There are some around the league that believe the OKC Thunder can be a real suitor for Lauri Markkanen. More on what the Thunder could potentially offer and why Sam Presti may have an ace up his sleeve this offseason:.

If Michael Winger leaves LAC for WAS and Bob Myers does not take the season off, nor return to the Warriors, there is a very strong possibility that Myers joins the Clippers. Some notes on the Clippers’ interest in Myers from earlier this week:

Klay Thompson actually sounds heartbroken and choked up in his postgame press conference. Anyone can tell us whatever we want to hear, but neither Thompson or the Warriors ultimately wanted that split. Unfortunately, it was needed for the franchise to push forward.

This is a very interesting move, especially because it opens up the door for Bojan Bogdanovic to be moved. Keep an eye on Philadelphia.

As we prepare for the 2024 NBA Draft tonight, I have released my final NBA Mock Draft 5.0 on @ClutchPoints. Risacher is viewed as the most likely pick at No. 1 overall, but Clingan is a very real options for the Spurs with the 4th pick:

The only two scenarios that make sense at this juncture are:. 1) Suns, Heat, Pistons, Bucks. 2) Suns, Heat, Raptors, Bucks. There isn’t a Western Conference team that can or has shown interest in adding Bradley Beal.

There are a few different scenarios that exist right now in terms of getting Butler to Phoenix. This trade that the Suns made was the first step in ensuring that this process can happen. Now comes the hard part of figuring out the other teams that will be involved with Miami.

More from Steve Kerr:. “I’m pissed off. We wanted to go to Vegas. We wanted to win this cup. We aren’t going because of a loose ball foul 80-feet from the basket. “I’ve never seen anything like this. That was ridiculous.”. (Proceeded to walk out of his postgame press conference).

Should the Wizards show interest in moving Kyle Kuzma ahead of the trade deadline, I would fully expect the Knicks to be heavily involved. A deal of Fournier, Quickley, Reddish and two future first-round picks for Kuzma and Barton makes too much sense right now.
