    • Hornets decline fourth-year option on JT Thor
      The Hornets have declined JT Thor’s fourth-year option, making him an unrestricted free agent.

      Advice: After three quiet seasons in Charlotte, Thor will get the chance to start fresh elsewhere. He played 12.4 minutes per game last season, so this won’t have a dramatic impact on their rotation, especially with Tidjane Salaun in the mix now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:08 pm
       
    • Cam Whitmore, AJ Griffin to play in Summer League
      Cam Whitmore and AJ Griffin will play in Summer League.

      Advice: Both wings will suit up for the Rockets this summer. Whitmore had a strong rookie season, but the extra reps will still help. Griffin barely suited up for Atlanta last season, so getting time on the court will be good for him as he adjusts to a new team. Alongside Reed Sheppard, they will have a talented squad in Vegas.

    • Won't play for Canada at Olympics
      Wiggins won't play for Canada during the 2024 Paris Olympics, Doug Smith of the Toronto Star reports.

      Advice: Per Smith, the Warriors are actively trying to trade Wiggins to clear up cap room, presumably to acquire Paul George, and they don't want Wiggins to get hurt playing in the Olympics. John Hollinger of The Athletic relays there could also be an already existing injury for Wiggins, but nothing has been reported. Wiggins missed 11 games during the 2023-24 season, including back-to-back absences at the beginning of April due to a sprained ankle. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:08 pm
       
    • Jalen Smith to decline $5.4 million player option
      Michael Scotto of HoopsHype reports that Jalen Smith will decline his $5.4 million player option for the 2024-25 season to enter free agency.

      Advice: Smith enjoyed career-highs in FG% (59.2) and three-point percentage (42.4) in his fourth NBA season, and he should have no shortage of suitors given his ability to space the floor and block shots. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:27 pm
       
    • Declines player option
      Smith declined his $5.4 million player option for the 2024-25 season Friday and will become an unrestricted free agent, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

      Advice: Smith saw an inconsistent role for the Pacers in 2023-24, averaging 9.9 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 17.2 minutes across 61 appearances, including 14 starts. However, the 23-year-old big man was largely left out of the team's rotation in the playoffs. Smith will now look to join a new team in free agency. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:33 am
       
    • Team option picked up
      The Pelicans informed Robinson-Earl on Friday that they will exercise his $2.2 million team option for 2024-25, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

      Advice: After spending his first two professional seasons in Oklahoma City, Robinson-Earl joined the Pelicans in 2023-24 and made 39 regular-season appearances (one start). He averaged 2.9 points and 1.9 rebounds in 8.6 minutes per game. Robinson-Earl will presumably be an end-of-bench frontcourt option again in 2024-25. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:43 am
       
    • Jalen McDaniels dealt to SAC in multi-player deal
      According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Jalen McDaniels was traded to the Kings for Sasha Vezenkov, Davion Mitchell and the 45th pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.

      Advice: McDaniels logged just 10.8 minutes across 50 games for Toronto last season, but there’s a chance he will see an uptick in playing time for his new team as Keegan Murray’s primary backup at PF. Rotoworld Thursday, 12:35 pm
       
    • Headed to Sacramento
      The Raptors traded McDaniels to the Kings in exchange for Davion Mitchell, Sasha Vezenkov, the No. 45 pick in 2024 NBA Draft and a second-round pick in the 2025 NBA Draft via Portland on Thursday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: During his first year in Toronto, McDaniels served as depth in the team's forward rotation. In 2023-24, he averaged 3.4 points and 1.6 rebounds in 10.8 minutes across 50 appearances, including one start. However, the 25-year-old mightily struggled with his efficiency, posting 34.4/16.9/73.0 shooting splits. If McDaniels isn't able to drastically increase his offensive output, he will likely struggle to find minutes in Sacramento. Rotowire.com Thursday, 12:35 pm
       
    • Shipped to Toronto
      The Kings traded Vezenkov, Davion Mitchell, the No. 45 pick in 2024 NBA Draft and a second-round pick in the 2025 NBA Draft via Portland to the Raptors in exchange for Jalen McDaniels on Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

      Advice: Vezenkov made 42 appearances for the Kings in 2023-24, averaging 5.4 points and 2.3 rebounds in 12.2 minutes on 44.0/37.5/80.0 shooting splits. While Vezenkov has shown the ability to be a quality floor-spacer at the forward position, there is no guarantee he will receive a significant uptick in playing time in Toronto.
