Being told the Thunder utilized the team’s trade exception for Aaron Wiggins in order for OKC to acquire Nique Clifford.
After Sacramento gained flexibility to add a point guard with today’s Nique Clifford trade to OKC, we can add Miami and Portland as teams who’ve shown interest in Kevin Porter Jr., per sources, along with the Kings and Nuggets. More here: tinyurl.com/2u4r82nb

My main advice to young folks hoping to enter sports media has never changed. You have to find some way to differentiate yourself from the pack and replicate it. That can be reporting or that can be comedy. But you need to do it well and do it often. These dudes routinely come up with standout spoof songs and it's wonderful stuff amid a losing season.

It’ll be $1.7 million granted to the Sixers, per source.

The analogy is great. But the “he has a great PR team,” is gold.
Jaylen Brown on Jayson Tatum: “It’s no beef, but it might be little lamb chops and some gravy, you know what I mean? “He should stay ready at all times.”

Really smart piece, again, from Jake
How many second-rounders would your team need to absorb $7.5 million in salary? Did our best to explore a wrinkle of the NBA’s trade market, after learning of talks on Monday that fell short of completion. Full story here: tinyurl.com/ykm3nar5

The @JakeLFischer Latest takes you inside some recent trade discussions on a deal you haven't heard about and which ultimately collapsed earlier this week ... and what those talks and the outcome tell us about the NBA's spending landscape. LIVE NOW: tinyurl.com/ykm3nar5

Never fails to not-deliver.
The season has legit started: Who He Play For is on soon. Have a feeling Ernie will STILL ask Chuck about Garrett Temple ... who's now a Mavericks assistant coach.

Sean Pedulla is also in the mix for Sacramento’s open two-way spot, along with Dalton Knecht, as we reported on today’s @BleacherReport stream. Sounds like Micah Peavy, Knecht and Pedulla are under consideration for several overlapping teams, including Toronto for all three.
I’m told former Rockets two-way guard Sean Pedulla has also cleared waivers and is fielding fresh interest on a two-way pact elsewhere.
