T.J. Shorts II is still looking for NBA contract. If not, he would join Panathinaikos.
Knicks' owned Rokas Jokubaitis re-signing with Maccabi, this probably means he is never joining NBA, his shot was last year, but after good summer league, he was not offered contract still. He re-signed with Tel Aviv Maccabi the day after Tev Aviv was bombed by Iran sadly.
(sub-10M) Connaughton - 8.4M (MIL) - [Connaughton accepts 1-yr PO] Oubre - 8.4M (PHL) - [opts in] Jevon Carter - 6.8M (CHI) Saric - 5.4M (DEN) Drummond - 5M (PHL) - [opts in] Batum - 5M (LAC) - [wants to re-sign with LAC] Dwight Powell - 4M (DAL) Eric Gordon - 3.5M (PHL) - [opts out] Kevin Porter Jr - 2.5M (MIL) - [opts out]
Team Options: top-5 only-- as these are far less common. Fred Van Vleet - 44.9M (HOU) - [HOU DECLINED TO, FVV re-signs 2-yr/50M] Moritz Wagner - 11M (ORL) - [declined] Vasilije Micic - 8.1M (PHX) - [picked up] Gary Harris - 7.5M (ORL) [Not picked up, Harris to UFA] Aaron Holiday - 4.9M (HOU) - [declined]
* Every TO at 3.5M or below are generally younger players on 2nd round contracts, or a few veterans minimums (i.e.; Tucker, Cory Joseph).

Just checked his stats, I'm actually quite impressed - 13/3/5 with 37% 3PT - not bad for Euroleague, especially for a young guy in his first year with a new team and finally getting starter minutes. And Maccabi have history of sending guys to NBA at all ages, not only promising teenagers.

It was Rokas' career year for sure, but you know that levels between Euroleague teams can really warry, and Maccabi was not competitive at all this year. Sometimes, best guy on Euroleague bottomfeeder could be like 10th. man on Euroleague contender, but he passes the eye test, he is definitely best Lithuanian guard right now, especially with Grignonis being injured and/or buried by Ataman.
Going back to Shorts, Blazers hired Tiago Splitter as assistant coach, so maybe they could give Shorts a shot?

I was hearing that TJ would rejoin Iisalo in Memphis, but now they have Cole Anthony in addition to Pippen Jr. as backup points, so maybe not.

I wonder how TJ compares to Cole Anthony, hard to compare guys who play in such different settings. I think Skill vise TJ is up there with NBA players like Anthony, but he is noticeably shorter, lives up to his name...
Memphis is interesting team in general now, will they actually try to blow it up, trade Ja maybe? Ja is enormously popular in Memphis I believe, trading him would cause a backlash.

Yea, not gonna lie, I never saw him playing, maybe few minutes here and there, and indeed any stat line on a bottom feeder might be useless - just forgot how meh they've been the last few years. Them dominating the league with Saras, Parker and Vujcic (?) for two years (IIRC) was one of my favorite euroleague (or whatever it was called back then) moments - because of the way they played, not the results.
I feel like I've had a stroke... has the NBA always allowed trades to happen before the playoffs are actually over? I thought trades couldnt be made until the off-season. When did that change?

Teams have long been able to make trades once their season has ended.
Looks like the time of orgs foaming at the mouth over athletic, low IQ shot chuckers is slowly coming to an end. Maybe he will get traded to Charlotte or something where he can put up 30 shots a game without having to worry about winning games

yeah, I have lost faith in him. He is Monta Ellisy.
For the Celtics I think they're likely to move Jrue and Hauser this summer. And possibly KP but I think it's just as likely they keep and extend him at a lower salary.
I think Tatum is off the table, Brown and White are not likely to be moved unless it's some insane offer they can't refuse, and they probably aren't trying to deal Pritchard either. Horford is contemplating retirement but it seems like he wants to keep playing. And Kornet is a free agent who wants to stay in Boston but is likely to get bigger offers and will have to make a decision.
There was a recent thread about Brown's terrible contact but it seems like teams are quite interested in him fwiw.

He improved during the regular season, but wasn't good in the playoffs. He's only 23 years old so there might be someone interested in him. The question is how much would they give up for him?
The rumor is that they're looking for a three team deal in a Durant trade. Stuff from Houston to the Suns, Durant to Houston, Jalen Green to a third team and then stuff to the Suns.

why would KP take a discount? there are multiple teams that would overpay for him
Because he loves Boston and won a title there, is tired of getting traded around to crappy teams, and understands his health and availability brings his contract value down as he gets older.

lol ok. i'll believe it when he signs for 20 a year, my bet is he signs somewhere for 30+ annual
