  • MIA Head Coach
    A second Heat player has tested positive for COVID-19, and the Heat will shut down individual workouts at AmericanAirlines Arena, according to Ethan Skolnick of Five Reasons Sports.
    Derrick Jones Jr. is the first positive test, and it’s currently unknown who has also tested positive on the Heat. Ira Winderman of the Sun Sentinel does add that it is a rotation player. The Heat are headed to Orlando on July 8, and they will resume activities in the Disney facilities.

  • UTA Shooting Guard #2
    Collin Sexton led all Utah Jazz players with 24 points (8-of-16 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs) to go along with 6 rebounds, eight assists, a steal, a block, and four three-pointers against the Spurs on Saturday.
    Sexton doubled his point total from his second preseason game while being aggressive on the boards and assertive as a playmaker for the shorthanded Jazz. He improved upon his 2022-23 numbers across the board last season and could do so again in year two as a starter.
  • CHI Shooting Guard #8
    Zach LaVine exploded for 28 points (9-of-12 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), four assists, two steals, and six three-pointers in Saturday’s matchup between the Chicago Bulls and Memphis Grizzlies.
    LaVine was extremely efficient in his 22 minutes on the court. He made all six of his attempts from long distance and only turned the ball over once. He could be ready to return to the prominent scorer he became when he first joined the Bulls.
  • MEM Center #14
    Zach Edey recorded 15 points (5-of-10 FGs, 5-of-7 FTs), with eight rebounds, four assists, and three blocks in 22 minutes in the Memphis Grizzlies’ Saturday matchup against the Chicago Bulls.
    Edey’s scoring total has gone up with each preseason game. The Grizzlies big man showcased his offensive and defensive in his third contest since the Summer League. He appears poised to start at center.
  • BOS Small Forward #0
    Jayson Tatum notched 16 points (5-of-11 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs) with 10 rebounds, six assists, a steal, a block, and three three-pointers in the Boston Celtics’ win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday.
    Tatum stuffed the stat sheet and flirted wasn’t too far off from a triple-double despite logging just 23 minutes. He was a +23 alongside in the blowout victory. The Reigning champs still appear to have a host of strong fantasy options.
  • PHI Point Guard
    McCain scored a team-high 20 points (9-of-21 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs) with three rebounds, three assists, and three steals in the Philadelphia 76ers’ Saturday matchup against the Boston Celtics. He made one of his eight three-point attempts.
    McCain didn’t have his most efficient shooting night in his team’s blowout loss but posted his best preseason scoring stats yet. He was active on both ends and is making a case to be part of Philadelphia’s rotation early in 2024-25.
  • UTA Point Guard
    The Utah Jazz announced Saturday that Isaiah Collier has been ruled out their matchup against the San Antonio Spurs with a hamstring injury.
    Collier scored two points (1-of-1 FGs) with two assists and four turnovers in 10 minutes before exiting the contest. His limited playing time kept him well short of his production in his first two preseason games.
  • FA Shooting Guard #30
    According to the NBA’s transactions log, the Los Angeles Clippers waived Nate Darling on Saturday.
    Darling hasn’t logged NBA minutes since he played in seven games for the Charlotte Hornets in 2021-22. He appeared in two games for the Ontario Clippers in 2023-24 and could return there ahead of the upcoming season.
  • FA Shooting Guard #0
    The Chicago Bulls signed and waived Javon Freeman-Liberty on Saturday, according to the NBA"s transactions log.
    Freeman-Liberty averaged 7.0 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.8 assists per game through his 22 appearances with the Raptors last season. He’ll get a chance to play for the Windy City Bulls in 2024-25 if there’s an Exhibit 10 language in his latest contract.
  • LAL Power Forward #2
    According to a Saturday report from So Cal News Group’s Khobi Price, JJ Reddick said Jarred Vanderbilt is ramping things up in hopes of returning from his foot injuries by the beginning of the regular season.
    Vanderbilt, who averaged 5.2 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 1.2 steals in 29 games last season, hasn’t participated in any non-contact drills or contact work just yet. He could prove to be a valuable defender for the Lakers early on if he’s healthy enough to rejoin the rotation early in the season.
  • CHA Center #5
    The Charlotte Hornets announced Saturday that Mark Williams is out of the walking boot on his left foot. He’ll be re-evaluated ahead of the regular season.
    Williams hasn’t played in a game since last December. The Hornets big man is working back from injury after averaging 12.7 points and 9.7 rebounds in 2023-24. His return to the starting lineup could give Charlotte’s frontcourt a big boost.
