Yabu signs with the Knicks 2yrs $12mil
Played solid for us. Also played out of position (center). Nice stretch forward who hustles.
Interesting...Bucks waived Lillard and used the remainder of his contract on Myles Turner. Good move, but Myles might be a younger carbon copy of Brookl Lopez. Wouldn't you assume Turner wouldn't agree to that unless he was told Giannis is coming back? Unless the Pacers were low-balling him.

Got more money and gets to play for contender this season

You basically just repeated what I typed out but just said it different. Giannis staying = contender, Pacers low-ball = get more money.

Leave. Why are you still here? Draft is over.
Jake Fischer: There is certainly more dust to settle from Myles Turner landing in Milwaukee, as ESPN reports. I’m being told the big man wanted to remain with the Pacers, who he helped lead to the Finals, but Indiana’s offers for Turner never truly exceeded the three-year, $60 million range. – via x.com
Three ruptured achilles in the span of a month or two has changed the trajectory of three different franchises...
-The Pacers are letting Turner walk because Haliburton is done for majority if not the whole season. They're probably packing it in for the 25-26 season.
-The Celtics are selling letting Kornet walk, trading Holiday for Simons, Horford is probably gone, traded Prozingis because of Tatum. Packing it in. Part of it too also being the 2nd Apron.
-The Bucks could lose Giannis because of Lillard, or maybe keep him turning Lillard into Turner trying to make a hail mary for him to stay.
and Giannis Antetokounmpo both valued the opportunity to partner together on the court during the process, sources told ESPN. With Antetokounmpo considering his future and whether his best fit was with the Bucks moving forward, Milwaukee executives once again make a major move. – via ESPN

C: Turner
PF: Giannis
SF: Kyle Kuzma
SG: Trent Jr.
PG: Porter Jr.
...I don't know. I feel like they need to get something better in there besides Kuzma. I'm fine with Trent Jr. and Porter Jr. Porter can legit be a 2nd option and has shown in the past he can be, he just hasn't gotten the playing time the last two years. He's still only 25 and averaged 19/5/5 in Houston a few years back.
Biggest winners so far is who? Rockets? Landed Durant, pulled Finney-Smith away from the Lakers and got a legit backup center for Sengun in Capela. And still has the flexibility to make more moves if they want.
Hawks? Got Porzingis, NAW, Luke Kennard? Got a Top 5 pick next year.

They should have signed and traded Portis for better guard depth. Kuzma is a swing forward and can play PF at times. Giannis is going to also play 35 minutes a night. If things are going right, Turner is going to play 30 minutes. So are you really needing Portis?
Anyway, with what they have now, maybe their best move is to try and bring back Brogdon.
