Warriors GM Mike Dunleavy expressed confidence once again that Stephen Curry -- who is on an expiring deal this season -- will remain with the Warriors until he retires.

Being a Clippers fan, of course, is not a crime, though can make the case that it demonstrates questionable judgment. But it's going to eventually require an explanation from Iger to the fans of the team that he's soon to own.

Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob says his team made multiple "very big" trade offers that didn't come to fruition this offseason.

With the Denver Nuggets currently the only team set to be over the second apron going into the 2026-27 season, Peyton Watson's future remains a significant issue for the team as he waits out restricted free agency.

Reports of Russell Westbrook possibly signing with Hapoel Tel Aviv are "laughably false," sources told Marc Stein of The Stein Line. Westbrook is not considering playing abroad. The Kings were reportedly interested in potentially having Westbrook return next season as a mentor to Darius Acuff. Westbrook averaged 15.2 points and 6.7 assists last season.

The Lewis family, owners of Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur, is exploring a bid for the NBA Europe franchise slated for London. The move would mark the family's first venture beyond soccer since acquiring Spurs in 2001. The Lewis family controls 70.12 percent of ENIC, Tottenham's parent company, which itself holds an 87.62 percent stake in the club. Vivienne Lewis, daughter of Joe Lewis, and her son-in-law Nick Beucher, co-CEO of Tavistock Group, primarily represent the family's interes...

Bradley Beal could return to the Los Angeles Clippers next season, sources told Marc Stein of The Stein Line. Beal played in six games for the Clippers last season before undergoing season-ending hip surgery. Beal is also drawing interest from the Heat. Beal averaged 17.0 points and 3.7 assists with the Suns during the 2024-25 season.

Yet another ownership group is in the house, but it seems Jeanie Buss and Rob Pelinka are somehow sticking around.

Veteran free agents Russell Westbrook and Bradley Beal have reportedly registered at least some level of interest from NBA teams more than a month out from the start of training camp.

After the Golden State Warriors fell short in their pursuit of star forward LeBron James in free agency, team owner Joe Lacob made it clear that the team has no intention of trading Stephen Curry.

Russell Westbrook’s decline from NBA centerpiece to free-agent afterthought could take him outside the league—and the Western hemisphere—entirely.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry will enter his 18th season in the NBA, and his window to win a fifth championship is closing fast.

“If it’s for two months, two years, whatever it is, I’m just excited to be here.”

Judge the two greatest NBA players of this generation by the way they spent their summers. LeBron James, after his fifth championship, left nothing to chance. The King methodically evaluated the league’s rosters, liked how the Sixers looked after adding Jalen Brown and signed a minuscule contract to secure a new, potentially final home for...

The Dream were in active discussions, but no deals came to fruition

The Golden State Warriors are looking to sign Brandin Podziemski to a contract extension, general manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. said on Tuesday. "When he's on the court, we're a better team," said Dunleavy on a conference call. "So anytime you've got a guy like that, you want to be able to keep him around. "Obviously we have multiple ways to do it through an extension and restricted free agency and all that, but we prefer to get it done sooner rather than later." Podziemski averaged 13.8 points a...

To be clear, this is a proposed deal, not one that […] The post NBA trade proposal sends Devin Booker to Spurs for De’Aaron Fox, picks appeared first on Hoops Wire.
