Fantasy News & NBA Updates

Frank Kaminsky
PF, Phoenix Suns

Frank Kaminsky has agreed to a one-year deal with the Kings, per Adrian Wojnarowski.

Kaminsky had his $5.2 million option declined by the Suns, putting him in the free agent market. His deal with the Kings is reported to be non-guaranteed. Last year saw Kaminsky put up 9.7 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.4 steals, 0.3 blocks and 1.1 triples in 19.9 mpg as a bench big, though he was actually a fairly prominent part of the rotation until a right patella stress fracture knocked him out of 33 games. The Kings now have a very crowded frontcourt with Kaminsky joining Marvin Bagley, Richaun Holmes, Nemanja Bjelica and Hassan Whiteside. It's shaping up as a major fantasy headache.

Bobby Portis
PF, Milwaukee Bucks

The Bucks have made the signings of Bobby Portis, Torrey Craig and Bryn Forbes official.

Portis and Forbes are on two-year deals while Craig is on a one-year contract. Milwaukee did a nice job to overhaul their bench without breaking the bank, and each player here fits a need for the title-hopeful Bucks. Portis is the closest to fantasy relevance of the three (though it's still unlikely) and looks like the first big off the bench. A 22-25 mpg role could get him close to the 12-team radar, and there's upside if the Bucks use him at both frontcourt spots in different lineups. Forbes will give Milwaukee a reliable floor-spacer off the bench while Craig will be occupying a defensive specialist role as a guy capable of guarding three positions.

Pat Connaughton
SG, Milwaukee Bucks

The Bucks have officially re-signed Pat Connaughton.

Connaughton's deal is believed to be for $16 million over three years. The athletic guard will be looking to improve upon last season's numbers of 5.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.4 steals, 0.5 blocks and 0.8 threes in 18.6 mpg, but it's tough to see how he can carve out more playing time with Jrue Holiday, Bryn Forbes and Torrey Craig joining the wing ranks. While it's a rich deal for a player who lines up as the 7th or 8th guy in the rotation at his peak, Connaughton is a nice depth option for the Bucks to have as they gear up for a title run.

TJ Leaf
PF, Oklahoma City Thunder

The Thunder have officially acquired TJ Leaf from the Pacers.

Oklahoma City also acquires a 2027 second-round pick in the deal. Leaf will look to rejuvenate his career after three lackluster seasons in Indiana, and the rebuilding Thunder should give him the chance to earn real minutes for the first time in his career. We haven't seen much of anything out of Leaf at the NBA level but he's a name to remember in extremely deep fantasy leagues just in case he comes through.

Patrick Patterson
PF, Los Angeles Clippers

Patrick Patterson has officially re-signed with the Clippers.

Patterson will give the Clippers some nice depth at the forward spot, with solid team defense and 3-point shooting capability. The return of Marcus Morris and the arrival of Serge Ibaka likely knock Patterson from the rotation but he's a great luxury depth piece to have around.
