    • Shams: Richaun Holmes signing extesnion with WAS
      According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, Wizards big man Richaun Holmes is signing a two-year, $25.9 million extension.

      Advice: Holmes declined a one-year, $12.9 million player option before agreeing to his extension. It’s unclear how large his role will be, though, as Alexandre Sarr and Marvin Bagley are set to be in the mix as well from the start of 2024-25. Rotoworld 13 minutes ago
       
    • Report: DET declining Chimezie Metu player option
      According to Hoops Hype’s Michael Scotto, the Pistons are declining Chimezie Metu’s player option for 2024-25.

      Advice: Metu reached career highs of 10.9 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 1.9 assists per game during his 14 games with the Pistons last season. Whether he can carve out a role with a new team remains to be seen. Rotoworld 28 minutes ago
       
    • Agrees to 2-year deal with Wizards
      Holmes agreed to a two-year, $25.9 million contract with the Wizards on Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Holmes had to decline his $12.8 million player option prior to this agreement, so he secured himself a small raise. As for the second season of his deal, only $250,000 of it is guaranteed. Holmes figures to play a key role for the rebuilding Wizards in 2024-25 with this news, and he offers some intriguing fantasy appeal due to the lack of depth in Washington's frontcourt.

    • Report: Knicks not extending Precious Achiuwa
      According to The Athletic’s Fred Katz, the Knicks won’t be extending a qualifying offer to Achiuwa.

      Advice: Achiuwa was serviceable for stints after joining the Knicks via trade, but New York has other priorities after trading for Mikal Bridges and re-signing OG Anunoby. The Knicks aren’t opposed to brining Achiuwa back, but it appears like they’d prefer to do so for cheaper. Rotoworld Today, 3:19 pm
       
    • Hits open market
      The Pistons declined Metu's team option Saturday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

      Advice: The option was worth $2.65 million, but the Pistons are opting to go in a different direction. Metu made 14 appearances for the Pistons in 2023-24, averaging 10.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.7 steals and 0.9 three-pointers in 29.4 minutes per game. Rotowire.com Today, 3:06 pm

      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.

      According the ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Paul George has decided to decline his player option for the 2024-25 season.

The 34-year-old wing is expected to meet with the Clippers and other suitors as he pursues a secure, multi-year contract.
