    • Report: Damion Lee declining Suns player option
      According to Hoops Hype’s Michael Scotto, Damion Lee has decided to opt out of his player option with the Suns ahead of the 2024-25 season.

      Advice: Lee missed all of last season with a meniscus tear and will look to pursue a new deal after taking all of 2023-24 to recover from surgery. He averaged 8.2 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game in his lone full season with Phoenix. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:07 pm
       
    • Will test free agency
      Lee (knee) declined his $2.85 million player option with the Suns on Saturday, and he will test unrestricted free agency, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

      Advice: Lee saw decent playing time in his first, and possibly final, season with Phoenix. The 31-year-old averaged 8.2 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.4 assists across 20.4 minutes in 74 regular-season games. What was most impressive about Lee's game was his improved shot from long range. The six-year NBA veteran made a career-high 44.5 percent of his attempts from beyond the arc. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:01 pm
       
    • Hits free agency
      The Knicks did not extend a two-way qualifying offer to Brown (concussion) on Saturday, making him an unrestricted free agent, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Brown played on a two-way contract with the Knicks last season but made just eight appearances at the NBA level. He's likely to have a lukewarm market in free agency. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:45 pm
       
    • To hit free agency
      The Knicks did not extend a $6.3 million qualifying offer to Achiuwa on Saturday, making him an unrestricted free agent, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Katz is reporting that the Knicks haven't ruled out the idea of bringing Achiuwa back, but right now they are prioritizing flexibility for their cap space. After being acquired from the Raptors last season, Achiuwa went on to make 49 appearances for the Knicks with averages of 7.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.1 blocks in 24.2 minutes.

    • To become free agent
      The Jazz did not extend a qualifying offer to Lewis on Saturday, making him an unrestricted free agent, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Lewis will now be able to test the open market to find a new franchise. After Lewis was traded from the Raptors to the Jazz in 2023-24, he proceeded to make just 12 appearances with 3.8 points and 1.6 assists per game. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:34 pm
       
    • Jazz extend qualifying offer
      The Jazz extended a qualifying offer to Juzang on Saturday, making him a restricted free agent, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Juzang's role grew with the Jazz toward the end of the 2023-24 campaign, so it's not a surprise to see that Utah is interested in keeping the score-first guard around. Juzang spent a lot of time in the G League as well. In his 20 appearances with the Jazz, he produced averages of 7.2 points, 1.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.6 three-pointers.

    • Declines player option Saturday
      Bryant declined his $2.8 million player option Saturday, and he will test free agency this offseason, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

      Advice: Bryant had a down year with the Heat, and if he were to have stayed his role likely would have diminished as the club drafted Kel'el Ware with the No. 15 overall selection in the 2024 Draft. The 26-year-old appeared in just 38 games for the Heat, during which he averaged 5.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 0.6 assists across 11.6 minutes per game. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:26 pm
       
    • To become free agent
      The Magic did not extend a qualifying offer to Okeke on Saturday, making him an unrestricted free agent, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

      Advice: This move is a hardly a surprise, as Okeke failed to make the rotation on a consistent basis in 2023-24. The forward made just 47 appearances for the Magic, averaging 2.3 points, 1.7 rebounds and 0.5 three-pointers in 9.2 minutes. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:22 pm
       
    • Knicks pick up team option
      The Knicks have picked up Sims' $2.1 million team option Saturday, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.

      Advice: Sims will return to the Knicks for at least one more year. This comes amid uncertainty around Isaiah Hartenstein's future with the club, as the Knicks have reported interest in bringing the big man back. Sims appeared in 45 regular-season games last year, during which he averaged 2.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, 0.6 assists and 0.4 blocks across a career-low 13.0 minutes per game Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:15 pm
