First up, Atlanta is reportedly starting the ignition for the rebuild wagon with some deals reportedly being finished within as little as two messages. There is no doubt that lakeshowak7 has a clear intent when leaving the contending Trailblazers for NanashiWake and heading to Atlanta. Which players exactly are going to fit into the new look Hawks still remains to be seen.
Hawks F Frank Kaminsky has been discussed in a few deals according to anonymous sources.
In free agency news, F Mitch McGary has gained the attention of as many as four GMs and may receive as much as a max offer in the market. Detroit has already expressed their interest in retaining the upcoming CSL player however they have yet to be told whether or not he's leaning on returning to the Pistons. The Spurs have reported traded G Marcus Smart and not only broke their verbal agreement for a rumored Klay Thompson trade but now it's being reported they wouldn't even respond to PMs as to why. Some sources are saying the Bulls GM Marcos_Beck told him it was a bad idea and he panicked. If so this would make two potential trades by Cleveland ruined by Chicago. Is this rivalry hitting a new level?
G Marcus Smart may be on the move from the San Antonio backcourt.
With G Delon Wright already seeing multiple articles published about teams' interest in acquiring him through free agency, Lakers GM Jester has been contacting organizations about moving up in the draft to get the player they target. Is there anyone that is untargetable on the Lakers' roster? Probably not.
