Last week, the Utah Jazz fandom found a new, shiny object of desire. It wouldn’t be the summertime without this tradition; I’ll remember fondly the days when I would contemplate longingly the backcourt fit of Donovan Mitchell and Jrue Holiday, or how Jerami Grant’s length could potentially shore up our perimeter defense. However, the new […]
Probably the biggest question for the Utah Jazz this season is at center. After the Walker Kessler trade, Utah went from having a clear center rotation to facing major lineup questions. The problem has really come down to two options. Whether the Jazz want Jaren Jackson Jr. to start at center or to have recently […]
Cavaliers Just as the Cavaliers finished reshaping themselves for another run through the Eastern Conference, Toronto added Kawhi Leonard. That qualifies as an inconvenience. As NBA on SI examined, Leonard gives Cleveland another legitimate postseason obstacle in a conference that already became considerably stronger this summer. Leonard averaged a career-high 27.9 points last season, earned […]

The Mavericks, Jazz, and Kings could each benefit from this interesting three-team trade that swaps three players for fair prices.
When you think of August, most people don’t think of sports news unless you’re following MLB or MLS. In the NBA, August means preseason prep. However, under the new CBA, small deals continued to happen throughout the summer. Peyton Watson went to the Cleveland Cavaliers, Klay Thompson to Miami, and, most recently, Jordan Hawkins to the Memphis […]

Raptors The Kawhi Leonard trade remains unofficial, which is becoming more than just an offseason inconvenience for the Raptors. Rocco Moschella of NBA on SI noted that Toronto’s media day is scheduled for Sept. 28, with training camp beginning one day later in Quebec City. Until the trade is formally completed, Leonard remains a member of the Clippers, no matter how many Raptors players he works out with in Miami. That leaves coach Darko Rajakovic unable to fully install lineups and roles inv...

If you’re wondering why this season feels different, it’s because it is. Jazz fans are entering territory they haven’t been in ever before. What territory am I talking about? I’m talking about the potential we have with Darryn Peterson. I’ve been spending the last few months since the draft and summer league trying to grasp […]
Walker Kessler missed basketball. Now he says he sees it a little differently. The Lakers center appeared in only five games for the Jazz last season after undergoing surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder. It was the first extended absence of his NBA career. “Sitting out a whole year definitely puts a lot of things in perspective,” Kessler told ESPN’s Dave McMenamin, via Ryan Ward of Lakers On SI. “The heart grows fond in absence. I think falling in love with this game again and...

Cavaliers Preseason basketball isn’t designed to provide many answers. But for the Cavaliers, it should at least provide a few useful first looks. Zach Weiss of Cavs On SI identified Peyton Watson’s early work with the starters as one of the things to watch. Makes sense. Watson needs to learn where Donovan Mitchell and James Harden want him, while the Cavs need to see how his ankle responds in actual game conditions. Watson is beginning a four-year, $88 million contract and is expected to prov...

Timberwolves The Timberwolves didn’t acquire Cody Williams merely because they needed to move some money around.
