A class player whom I always enjoyed watching him play. Never a complainer and always a team player. He will be missed

No one wants him and he won't play for the Sixers

Maybe LeGM?

Good one. But lately he's not doing his regular GM chores since Pelinka has done a great job and left him in the dust.

Preseason is in the books..Regular season tip off begins in 2 days. The league this year is so exciting. I read that this year, 25% of the league players changed teams, all, apparently for the better. This is going to be an epic year

@christoph re Ja Morant......you could be correct in your previous post. A long but sobering read

'Then the alligators got him': Inside Ja Morant's 18-month downfall​

'Then the alligators got him': Inside Ja Morant's 18-month downfall

After the 2022 All-Star Game, Morant's misconduct became more frequent -- and dangerous. Since then, serious allegations have emerged. Lawsuits and subpoenas remain open. And a 24-year-old superstar's career is on the brink.

In the 18 months since, more serious allegations have surfaced. Lawsuits and subpoenas have been filed and remain open. It is a period in which a 22-year-old rising superstar struggling with the excesses of fame has become a 24-year-old man whose actions are jeopardizing his career.

Will a team win both the In Tournament and the real NBA TITLE? That will be historic.

But what would happen if the In tournament winner plays the NBA champions for bragging rights and it's the same team.....

That's going to be a circus.

That's going to be a circus.

Bad news and good news.

No matter , I still think Morant is one of the most gifted players in the NBA. He has raw talent.......but he is on a very thin line which, if breaks again Silver will come down harder, likely with a bigger fine and possibly a full season suspension

I think 6 months of counseling should help.

I think 6 months of counseling should help.

He's had that without success. He needs a friggin team intervention where they pull him out of bed at midnight and as a team lay down the law.As the saying goes, "it is his to lose"

An interesting read, but I am a Lakers fan

If the Lakers can stay healthy, they should have every tool needed to be an NBA Finals contender.

Giannis gets extension. $60m a year and change. In the level of Jaylen Brown's contract but not as long. With option to opt out on the 3rd year. Basically a firm 2 years with the Buck.

Agent: Giannis secures 3-year, $186M extension

Hours before the deadline, Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo agreed on a three-year, $186 million contract extension, his agent Alex Saratsis told ESPN on Monday, and the deal includes a player option for the 2027-2028 season.
