https://hoopshype.com/2025/01/08/pj-dozier-heading-to-turkey/

So in other words, that 1 million guarantee to sign Dozier was to keep him from going back to Europe. Why? Because he isn’t an NBA player, and all 29 other teams know that.

Brunson looks like an ideal star next to Towns. At least in offense

Did Nico overtake Khan as worst GM of all time? Does it vindicated Divac was right in taking Bagley3 over Luka? :lol:

This and protecting the ball is the biggest difference MIN and NYK offense, while both are built with Towns, but not around his playmaking abilities. Karl does all the dirty work for Knicks, while Brunson is responsible for scoring in clutch and playmaking

Veteran guard Patrick Beverley has officially parted ways with Hapoel Tel Aviv, with the Israeli team describing the move as a mutual decision, according to BasketNews.com.

As BasketNews notes, Beverley recently had a public spat with Dimitris Itoudis, drawing a suspension for mocking the club’s head coach on social media. He didn’t play another game for Hapoel Tel Aviv after the incident.

Going back to those games against top-10 offenses, Towns has allowed opponents in those games to shoot 63% from the field -- ranking 346th out of 346 players to contest at least 50 shots against those teams, per ESPN Research.

On layups and dunks in those games, Towns is allowing 70% shooting -- and opponents are shooting 60% overall on layups and dunks against him, which is the worst mark of any player to contest at least 300 of them.
