Bez Mbeng had signed an exhibit 10 with the Charlotte Hornets, it was hoped he would clear waivers and then end up with the Swarm, but the Heat claimed him
Eric Collins if he hopes to be part of the Hornets broadcast beyond this season.

Do the Pistons want Duren to ask out? Such strange negotiating tactics for a guy who’s never been out of shape.
Here’s context on the weight clause in the Pistons’ offer to Jalen Duren, with @sam_amick.
Details on when Detroit initially wanted Duren to lose weight, monthly weigh-ins and more:

Special announcmenet!
I teamed up with the excellent James Plowright @British_Buzz for an in-depth discussion on a potential Deuce McBride for Moussa Diabaté trade.
We broke down the trade from every angle, to see what would have to happen for a trade to go down.
This debate gets spicy! Link in comments 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
Ah great, the penny pinching for the new stadium has started already and will likely go on for a decade.
Could #MUFC have spent more in summer window? Q4 accounts gave some answers.
Room on revolving credit facility, but this is more debt that would need repaying. UEFA's financial rules, given losses, a factor.
Club made choice to invest £63.5m on land ⬇️

NEW Celtics Daily with @British_Buzz -- Boston traded Jaylen Brown this summer for two firsts. Charlotte moved off LaMelo Ball for Reid, a first and 3 swaps.
Who's in a better position to strike for the next star who becomes available? @CLNSMedia

The Hornets went into last training camp with a roster crunch, they liked the competitive edge it created.
There’s a lot to play for with seemingly only one spot available between Hield, Connaughton, Nembhard and Salaün.
Unless, of course, a consolidation trade is in the works.
Credit @JakeLFischer for being on this first.
Hornets roster crunch just got even more complex. Didn’t see the need for Hield with Kon/Allen/McNeeley/Sion, but maybe there are more moves coming?
Nembhard is a solid 3rd PG who flashed with Dallas, but what about Anderson Jr?
Thought Kawhi would re-sign for a little less considering his availability and age.
That’s a lot for someone who’s struggled to stay healthy
Just in: Toronto Raptors All-NBA star Kawhi Leonard has agreed on a two-year, $115 million contract extension with the franchise, plus a player option for the 2028-29 season, his agent Harrison Gaines of SLASH Sports tells ESPN.
