NBA Rumors: Kevin Love Could Be Sent To Nets For Caris LeVert, Taurean Prince, And Draft Pick
Cleveland Cavaliers power forward Kevin Love is one of the superstars who are expected to change teams before the 2021 trade deadline. He may remain committed to the Cavaliers, but at this point in his career, most people believe that he would be better off playing for a legitimate title contender than wasting his prime years mentoring young players on a rebuilding team. One of the potential trade destinations for Love is the Brooklyn Nets. According to Lee Tran of Fadeaway World, the Nets may consider sending a package that includes Caris LeVert, Taurean Prince, and a future first-round...

Tired of trade rumors, Caris LeVert looks forward to playing with ‘Kev and Ky’
Photo by Jim Poorten/NBAE via Caris LeVert isn’r worried about trade rumors — ”part of the business.” Nor does he think much of those who say his game is limited — “I love playing off the ball.” Instead, the fourth year pro is looking forward to the season and playing with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, “Kev and Ky,” as he calls them. As it stands, with trade rumors now a still pool, LeVert is the Nets “third star” behind the superstar duo. The 26-year-old spoke about how he has talked with the duo about his role and how to complement them but...

NBA Rumors: LA Lakers ‘Building A Relationship’ With Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Agency Ahead Of 2021 Free Agency
Despite finally ending their title drought last season, the reigning NBA champions Los Angeles Lakers continue to find ways to upgrade their current roster. They first addressed their need for another shot creator and playmaker by trading for Dennis Schroder and filled the huge holes left by their departing veterans by signing Marc Gasol, Montrezl Harrell, and Wesley Matthews in the 2020 free agency.

Memphis Grizzlies Training Camp Primer
Photo by Joe Murphy/NBAE via We back! The Memphis Grizzlies are getting back to basketball this week at FedExForum, and in that sentence is the feeling of some semblance of normalcy. Of course logically there’s nothing normal about what is going on over at 191 Beale Street - daily COVID testing, gradual returns to full team practices, and limited fans in arenas in some NBA cities and no fans in others are all reminders of just how odd this preseason period really is. There’s no Bubble this time to protect players and coaches. Despite its supposed successes, that...

Through frequent shooting and effective passing, the Grizzlies are continuing to develop into a roster with significant offensive potential. While they certainly still have a ways to go in terms of their shooting consistency, they finished the 2019-2020 season as one of the best passing teams in the NBA.

As he exited TD Garden following a Game 7 loss to the Celtics, no one could have foreseen the hardships Wall...
