Shams: Lakers sign Sandro Mamukelashvili

Rupert finished last season in Memphis after spending a couple seasons in Portland. The 2023 second-round pick is a solid upside swing for Philadelphia, though he likely won’t be part of their regular rotation this upcoming season.

Green was a solid role player for Detroit last season, averaging 6.9 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.2 stelas in 17.6 minutes per game while appearing in all 82 games, which included six starts. He’ll remain in a depth role once again next season.

Queta enjoyed a breakout season for Boston last year, averaging 10.2 points, 8.4 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game. That was enough for him to earn a contract that will keep him around until for the remainder of the decade. The Celtics added Mitchell Robinson this summer, so Queta will likely split the minutes down low with him, though Queta should be the incumbent starter. He was a top-75 player in nine-category scoring last season in just 25.3 minutes per game, which is certainly a realistic role for him to play while splitting minutes with Robinson.

Eason was a restricted free agent this offseason, but managed to stay with the Rockets without signing an offer sheet elsewhere. The 25-year-old power forward has been a regular bench option for Houston, appearing in 117 games over the past two seasons while averaging 11.2 points and 6.3 rebounds. Sometimes the best ability is availability and Eason would have more fantasy value if he could play a full season next year.

Donovan has 11 years of NBA head coaching experience between his stops with the Thunder and the Bulls. He won two college basketball championships with the University of Florida. Donovan left the Bulls in April and is putting a pause on his head coaching career. A decorate coach at 61-years-old, Donovan can certainly impart some wisdom on 44-year-old Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson.

Plowden had previously been on two-way contracts with the Warriors, Hawks and Kings. He finally got a chance to play with the Kings last year, appearing in 32 games and averaging 26.4 minutes. Plowden scored 10.8 points per game and had 3.0 rebounds per game. The Kings rewarded the 27-year-old for having the best season of his career, though he still isn’t on the fantasy radar.

Spencer has been with the Warriors for the past three seasons. He had career-highs in games (64), starts (14), minutes (18.6), points (7.2), assists (3.5) and three-point percentage (35.7) last year. Spencer is soon to turn 30 and it remains to be seen how much upside is left here. The Suns believe he’s worth the minimal risk of a two-way contract.

Jones was traded twice and waived in February before the Nuggets picked him up. He appeared in 11 regular season games with Denver and three playoff games. The Nuggets saw enough to bring him back on a one-year deal, but he isn’t in line for a fantasy-relevant role.

Williams is now set to return to the Thunder for his seventh season with the organization and ninth in the NBA. The 31-year-old shooting guard is a role player, but also a career 36.8% three-point shooter who shot 38.8% from behind the three-point line last season. Williams has more real-life value, especially to a contending team like the Thunder, than in fantasy basketball.

Anderson has certainly bounced around, appearing for five different teams over the last two seasons. It looks like he’s found a home for this year, though, with the Raptors gearing up for contention in the wake of the Kawhi Leonard trade. For fantasy purposes, Anderson is a role player and doesn’t have much upside at this point in his career.
