  • 77-102-1 11th Place
    • Dealt to Charlotte
      Jackson, along with three second-round picks, was traded to the Hornets from the Nuggets, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

      Advice: Denver is effectively salary-dumping the veteran guard to Charlotte to create financial flexibility. It's possible the Hornets will attempt to ship Jackson off elsewhere, though he would add a veteran presence to a team looking to transition from rebuild to competitive. If he remains with Charlotte, he'd compete for backup guard minutes. Rotowire.com Today, 2:48 pm
       
    • Woj: DEN to trade Reggie Jackson to Hornets
      According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Nuggets will trade Reggie Jackson and three future second-round picks to the Hornets.

      Advice: Three days after it was reported that Jackson would opt into the final year of his contract, he’s headed to Charlotte. Given the career timeline, with Jackson moving from a title contender to a rebuilding team, the Hornets may buy him out or look to move the point guard elsewhere. If Jackson sticks in Charlotte, he could have some value backing up the oft-injured LaMelo Ball. For Denver, this move is about the money, as Kentavious Caldwell-Pope will enter free agency, and Jamal Murray is on the verge of agreeing to an extension worth over $200 million.

    • Declines player option
      Caldwell-Pope declined his $15.4 million player option for the 2024-25 season Thursday and will become a free agent, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope was remarkably consistent for the Nuggets over the past two seasons, and he averaged 10.1 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 31.6 minutes per game over 76 regular-season appearances last year. He'll test the open market this summer, and he should draw interest from multiple teams. Rotowire.com Today, 12:55 pm
       
    • Kentavious Caldwell-Pope declines player option
      Kentavious Caldwell-Pope is declining his $15.4 million player option and will enter free agency according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania.

      Advice: Earlier rumblings from Nuggets GM Calvin Booth pointed to KCP departing in free agency, so this news is hardly surprising. His 3-and-D skillset should keep him in the deeper-league conversation for fantasy managers no matter where he lands. In his absence, Christian Braun could step into a starting role, which would be a monster boost to his fantasy value. Rotoworld Today, 12:54 pm
       
    • Jamal Murray, DEN close on 4-year, $209M extension
      According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, the Nuggets and Jamal Murray are working on a four-year, $209 million extension.

      Advice: Shams notes that Murray is expected to sign the deal when Denver presents it to him. Availability has been a concern for Denver’s star point guard, but he’s been phenomenal when healthy, stepping up under the brightest lights in the postseason. He and Nikola Jokic will be a duo to be reckoned with for years to come in the Mile High City. Rotoworld Today, 12:50 pm
       
    • Davion Mitchell, Sasha Vezenkov dealt to Raptors
      ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the Kings have traded Davion Mitchell, Sasha Vezenkov and the 45th pick in the 2024 NBA Draft for Jalen McDaniels.

      Advice: Vezenkov only logged 12.2 minutes per game as a rookie, but he could see an increase in playing time for the rebuilding Raptors. Mitchell averaged nearly 28 minutes per game as a rookie, but his playing time has declined in each of the last two seasons. Both players were afterthoughts off of Sacramento’s bench, but they may see new opportunities in Toronto. Neither player, however, is worth drafting in 12-team fantasy leagues next season.

    • 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 Today, 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 Today, 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.
