According to Ian Begley of SNY, the New York Knicks have expressed interest in Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler. The 2022 No. 22 overall pick has appeared in 138 games for the Jazz in the last two seasons, averaging 8.7 points, 8.0 rebounds, and 2.4 blocks. The Knicks lost Isaiah Hartenstein to the Oklahoma City Thunder in free agency, so the team needs to fill a void underneath the basket. While there's still a chance New York could bring back Precious Achiuwa, Kessler would be viewed as an upgrade in a few statistical categories. However, if Mitchell Robinson remains on the roster, Kessler might see significantly fewer minutes than in Utah. But considering Robinson has had trouble staying healthy, Kessler may make some appearances with the starting lineup in the Big Apple.
Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (calf) will miss the start of Team USA training camp. The veteran is dealing with a calf strain, although Team USA head coach Steve Kerr indicated that the injury is "not bad." Durant finished last season by averaging 27.1 points, 6.6 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 1.2 blocks. He also appeared in 75 games, his most since the 2018-19 campaign, and shot 41.3% from deep. Of course, fantasy managers will want to monitor the ailment in case it becomes something more heading into the regular season.
According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, free-agent forward Miles Bridges agreed to a three-year, $75 million deal with the Charlotte Hornets. He was a coveted name on the open market. However, the Hornets will retain a player who averaged 21.0 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 3.3 assists in 2023-24. While Charlotte is a long way away from being a bona fide postseason team, Bridges is expected to be an All-Star-caliber performer for many years to come.
Free-agent forward Simone Fontecchio agreed to a two-year, $16 million contract to return to the Pistons. The 28-year-old began last season in Utah before being traded to Detroit. In 66 games with both teams, he averaged 10.5 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 1.5 assists. With the Pistons in a rebuilding stage, anyone on the roster has a chance to earn minutes in 2024-25, meaning Fontecchio could turn himself into a viable fantasy commodity.
The Dallas Mavericks officially traded forward Josh Green to the Charlotte Hornets as part of the deal for superstar Klay Thompson. The 23-year-old spent the last four seasons in Dallas, averaging 6.4 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.5 assists. He hasn't appeared in more than 67 games in a season since entering the league. However, the Hornets are rebuilding, meaning Green may carve out a meaningful role in Charlotte. There's also a chance he could be a routine starter for the club.
Free-agent forward Vlatko Cancar agreed to an undisclosed deal to return to the Denver Nuggets. The team declined his player option a few weeks ago. However, the Nuggets were expected to bring him back. The 26-year-old has averaged 3.5 points and 1.7 rebounds during his career. Unfortunately, he missed the 2023-24 campaign after suffering a torn ACL last summer. With the Nuggets lacking bench options, Cancar could see some minutes this season, so his statistical contributions will likely increase, although not enough to be a reliable fantasy contributor.
The Miami Heat have released center Orlando Robinson. The 23-year-old spent the last two seasons with the Heat, averaging only 3.2 points and 3.1 rebounds. Of course, Miami has Bam Adebayo underneath the basket. But the team bolstered their depth by adding Kel'el Ware in the draft while re-signing Thomas Bryant and Kevin Love. At any rate, Robinson will likely find a new team. However, he'll likely be a deep bench piece wherever he lands, so he's not expected to be a valuable fantasy asset in the near future.
Sacramento Kings guard Devin Carter (shoulder) will undergo surgery. The 22-year-old, who was selected No. 13 overall in the 2024 NBA Draft, is expected to miss the start of the 2024-25 campaign, although he's expected to make a full recovery from the left shoulder injury. Carter is coming off a potent collegiate season, averaging 19.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.8 steals, and 1.0 blocks in 33 games with the Providence Friars. Unfortunately, the procedure could negatively impact his development, meaning he may not see the floor as often to begin his career in the National Basketball Association.
The Sacramento Kings have agreed to a one-year deal with guard Jordan McLaughlin on Saturday. McLaughlin will join a new team after playing the last five seasons with the Minnesota Timberwolves. He struggled to stay on the court last season. Injuries limited McLaughlin to 56 games with 3.5 points per game and 2.0 assists in 11.2 minutes per game. This appears to be more of a depth move to have a decent backup behind starter De'Aaron Fox. Fantasy managers shouldn't bother looking at McLaughlin as a possible option.
The Chicago Bulls have acquired guard Chris Duarte from the Sacramento Kings in exchange for DeMar DeRozan. The Bulls will also receive two second-round picks as part of this sign-and-trade. The young guard will head to a more promising situation after being stuck competing for playing time with Kevin Huerter last season. Duarte was injured during the preseason and never really got back on track. He put up career-lows, but should get plenty of chances to bounce back on the rebuilding Bulls roster. This is a nice landing spot for Duarte but he won't have fantasy value on draft day.
Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes is headed to the San Antonio Spurs as part of a three-way sign-and-trade. The Kings will recieve DeMar DeRozan while the Chicago Bulls get Chris Duarte and a pair of second-round picks. Barnes was a full-time starter with the Kings last season but he was the odd man out with DeRozan coming to town. The Spurs are rebuilding, but they've added more experience with Chris Paul this offseason. They continue to build around superstar center Victor Wembanyama. The additions of Paul and Barnes should help the Spurs on the court and from a leadership standpoint. Barnes should have no problems finding minutes, but his value is trending more towards a late-round draft pick.
