Businesses owned by Prokhorov, owner of U.S. basketball team the Brooklyn Nets, have come under intense official scrutiny in the past few weeks, with officials in ski masks searching some of their offices in Moscow in April as part of a tax fraud investigation. Another of Prokhorov’s assets, the RBC media holding, has reported on the inner circle of Russian President Vladimir Putin and their financial interests – a taboo subject for much of Russia’s media. The Kremlin denies that the investigation is politically-motivated. 1 day ago – via Reuters

Thad Young has a $3.75m trade bonus that BKN pays. Young cap hit for the Pacers (starting in 2016-17) is 14.1m, 14.7m, 13.7m (P).

Noah was in high school 20 hours ago? Sounds creepy considering how old he is.
On another note, Indy will be a tough out next season, they acquire Young and Teague. They will be tough. Still not good enough to beat Cleveland but tough.

I think the real story here is how Noah put in two years of schooling in less than twenty hours. I am thinking 11/22/63 back door to a small diner perhaps.
I think Lopez's agent is probably trying to get Lopez out of there. These seem mostly like pipe dreams from Nets people that think they are the only team that can get free agents.
I am sure that every single rookie in this draft wouldn't mind going to the Nets because they are almost guaranteed playing time.
Nets general manager Sean Marks has been eager to gather young assets and draft picks, and could still be aggressive Thursday to get another pick in the first round, league sources said.
Marks inherited a franchise devoid of first-round picks and has been determined to gather picks using the assets available on his roster.

Wouldn't be the worst thing IMO. They are going to sign some guys and he hasn't really lifted a team up since 2012.
Other interesting part is who else is in the race for the bottom. Suns are drafting children and trying to trade vets, they should be atrocious unfortunately.
Lakers maybe a little bounce from ditching Kobe and hopefully not tanking. Silver lining of no stars being moved is it may keep teams like Memphis, Chicago, Dallas etc from cratering if they don't make moves.
