Has a current player ever done something like this?

Not yet as far as I know. Interested to see what his responsibilities will be. Maybe some recruiting but at the very least NIL money.

Steph Curry agreed to a similar thing with his alma mater, Davidson, a few weeks ago.

The Sonics always were a storied franchise.

They also have the highest scoring differential in NBA history.

Steph Curry's stat line at HALFTIME:

April fools

This is a pretty crazy stat. All three of Lebron, Luka, and Reaves are averaging 20/5/5 in the month of March since the Luka trade:

Moving away from the suns for a sec…anyone think Giannis might get traded this summer? I feel like Milwaukee is likely headed for another 1st round exit and I think they should trade him. They’d get an absolute haul and it would be fun to see Giannis on a team that matters.

It's possible. I thought for sure he was going to traded before they got Dame. That bought the Bucks 2 years but now that that window's closed he may look for an out. The Knicks will make a big push for him, probably before they talk KD. The Nets also seem to think they have a shot at him.

The Knicks don’t have picks, so I don’t see that happening unless a 3rd team gets involved…The nets have some picks, but they don’t seem ready to make that kind of move. Houston and San Antonio seem more likely to me…or maybe OKC if they lose.

KD for Giannis anyone? (In before TOO's dreaming is free comment.)

Maybe you can trade KD to Houston for a haul…then offload Grayson and Royce for picks…then send everything you got in those trades to Milwaukee, plus Dunn and Oso and any other assets we had for Giannis.

Would be amazing.... However, if we keep bud I'm not sure that would work. Didn't they have beef in MIL?

I don’t know if they did or not…he got fired while Bud was there. But someone will beat our offer anyways.

I don't want Giannis.
Sure I'd root for him if we got him. But I can't stand watching him play.

Franz Wagner me if we're looking for young all star.
Zion for the risky feelin frisky if NO wants off his contract for Beal and a couple picks.

Mikal and Josh hart me maybe

Booker for Giannis. Get it done.
