Branson is now expected to sign with the Knicks

Jalen Brunson was one of the stars of the playoffs as he helped the Dallas Mavericks reach the Western Conference finals for the first time since 2011. In addition, when Luka Doncic was eliminated at the start of the first round, he showed that he could be more than that. by additional player. As a result, he’s going to win a big payday this summer, especially with the Mavericks and New York Knicks getting into a bidding war for his services. Shortly after the Mavericks were eliminated, all signs indicated that Branson was returning to Dallas. But now the winds have changed. Mark Stein said on Tuesday that there was a “growing resignation” in the Mavericks organization that Branson would sign for the Knicks. Later in the day, the Knicks increased their chances of acquiring Branson when they traded Alec Berks and Nerlens Noel for the Detroit Pistons and cleared up even more space in the process. They are expected to offer Branson a $ 110 million four-year deal, according to Chris Haynes. Select the checkbox to confirm that you want to sign up.

Tucker will most likely join the Sixers

It seems that PJ Tucker’s tour of the Eastern Region candidates will continue next season. After winning the title with the Milwaukee Bucks in 2021 and reaching the Eastern Conference finals with the Miami Heat in 2022, Tucker is expected to join the Philadelphia 76ers. While it is not surprising to see Tucker hang out with another candidate, it is a bit strange to see that he will receive a long-term $ 30 million deal in three years, according to Keith Pompey. While he can still defend at a high level and achieved his career high of 41.5 percent from 3 points last season, he will turn 40 in the final year of this deal. If he can stay healthy, he will help the Sixers, but that is no guarantee of a player in the late 1930s playing as physically as Tucker.

Zubac is cashing in

Ivica Zubac is one of the most underrated big men in the league and often flies under the radar on a Los Angeles Clippers team with so many big names. The team, however, is well aware of his importance and moved quickly this summer to keep him in the long run. Zubac had only one year on his contract, which was team selection. Instead, the Clippers signed a new $ 33 million deal with Zubac over three years, according to Adrian Wojnarowski. Zubac averaged 10.3 points and 8.5 rebounds last season, both at the top of their careers, shooting 62.6 percent off the court. It looks like it will play a big role next season, as the Clippers hope to return to the title contenders with a healthy Kawhi Leonard.
