Precious Achiuwa re-signs with Kings for two years

The Celtics have been shopping Brown for a while now, and they finally found an offer that made moving on from the five-time All-Star worthwhile. Coming off the best individual season of his NBA career, the 6-foot-6 wing is headed to Philadelphia. Last season, Brown averaged 28.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.0 three-pointers while shooting 47.7 percent from the field and 79.5 percent from the foul line. Joining forces with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey likely puts a dent in Brown’s usage, but his fantasy value should not take too big of a hit, if any, in Philadelphia.

Ever since Caldwell-Pope exercised his $21.6 million option for the 2026-27 season, Wednesday’s report was the expected outcome. Memphis is in the midst of a rebuild, and the 33-year-old guard’s timeline does not align with it. Given the size of Caldwell-Pope’s contract and his production in recent years, his leaving Memphis via a waive-and-stretch provision feels more realistic than a trade.

Back in the NBA for the first time since the 2023-24 campaign, Black appeared in 15 games for the Wizards last season on a two-way contract. In those appearances, he averaged 7.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.3 three-pointers in 28.9 minutes. Black’s departure frees up a two-way contract slot for the Wizards to use as they fill out their roster.

The 47th overall pick in the 2025 draft, Marković remained overseas with Mega Basket for the 2025-26 campaign. He had an excellent season, averaging 18.2 points, 9.1 rebounds and 2.5 assists, going on to win Adriatic Basketball Association MVP honors. With Myles Turner on the roster and the Bucks acquiring Kel’el Ware in the Giannis Antetokounmpo trade, Marković will face significant competition for rotation minutes when training camp opens in the fall.

Harris, a 15-year NBA veteran, did a lot of good things for the Pistons in his latest two-year stint with the team. He was a starter on the court and a positive influence off the court for a young team with NBA Finals aspirations. Sound familiar? Harris, who turns 34 later this month, is slated for a similar role with the Spurs. Fantasy expectations should still remain low for Harris.

Hayes, 26, is a seven-year NBA veteran who spent the first four years of his career with the Pelicans. He was with the Lakers for the last three years, serving as the backup center. Hayes averaged 6.2 points and 3.9 rebounds with Los Angeles. He should have a similar role with the Jazz, who just lost a center in Walker Kessler via a sign and trade with the Lakers.

Oubre, 30, is an 11-year NBA veteran set to join his sixth team in the Pacers. The small forward most recently completed a three-year tenure with the 76ers where he averaged 14.9 points. He shot a career-high 36 percent from behind the three-point line last year. Oubre still doesn’t have much of a fantasy ceiling, but should be a reliable late round option once again next year.

A second-round pick last year, Watkins appeared in 50 games for the Wizards, averaging 7.4 points and 3.9 rebounds in 20.6 minutes per game. He started with a two-way contract, which was then converted to a standard contract, but the Wizards declined Watkins’ team option before free agency. Now Watkins is back where he started on another two-way contract, so not much has changed with his circumstances heading into next year.

Isaac was waived by the Magic just days ago, but finds himself back where he started. The former No. 6 overall pick from the 2017 NBA Draft, Isaac’s career has been a story of him mostly battling knee injuries. It’s unclear what his market was around the league, but Isaac decided his best path forward was to return to the Magic.

Martin was a second-round pick in the 2025 NBA Draft by the Raptors. He made his NBA debut on December 7 and appeared in 23 games with Toronto. Martin didn’t play a ton, averaging 6.3 minutes in those games. After a promising showing in the G League, the Raptors rewarded him with a two-year deal.
