Fantasy News & NBA Updates

Alex Len
C, Sacramento Kings

Alex Len has agreed to a deal with the Raptors in free agency, according to Shams Charania.

Len will join the Raptors as their backup center for the upcoming season. While the signing of Aron Baynes was a positive move for the team, Baynes' questionable health raised some concerns about the contingency plan should he go down. Len has been relegated to a streamer in standard leagues and while his role should be larger in Toronto than it was at the end of the year in Sacramento, the Raptors' tendency to split center minutes mean he likely still won't be relevant outside deeper leagues. The ability of both Len and Baynes to hit the 3 means they will fit within the Raptors current scheme nicely. The team is clearly rolling the dice with these two at center for the coming year, but it could pay dividends long term.

Markieff Morris
PF, Los Angeles Lakers

Markieff Morris is signing a one-year deal to return to the Lakers next season, per Shams Charania.

Morris put up decent numbers when he played with the Pistons earlier in the season but once traded to the Lakers his value evaporated. That's understandable considering the Lakers' depth at both center and power forward, and considering the team's recent signings of Montrezl Harrell and Marc Gasol, Kieff's role isn't going to grow at all this year. Even in deep leagues he won't produce numbers worthy of rostering.

Damyean Dotson
SG, New York Knicks

Damyean Dotson has agreed to a two-year, $4 million deal with the Cavaliers, according to Adrian Wojnarowski.

Dotson was in-and-out of the Knicks rotation last season but he was certainly capable of providing scoring off of solid shooting from beyond the arc. At 26, he can't be described as an older player yet but it seems unlikely he would develop surprisingly at this point. It's a savvy deal for the Cavs as it comes at such a low price point. For fantasy purposes Dotson will be strictly a threes streamer outside all but the deepest leagues.

Markieff Morris
PF, Los Angeles Lakers

Both the Lakers and Clippers are trying to sign Markieff Morris, per Marc Stein of the New York Times.

The Battle of LA wages on. Morris won't play a large role wherever he lands if these are the two choices, as both teams have done a very nice job adding to their frontcourt depth by poaching some ex-Raptors. Still, he's a capable stretch four that can start if need be, so it's no surprise that title contenders are targeting him as they put finishing touches on their rosters.

Solomon Hill
SF, Miami Heat

The Hawks and Solomon Hill have reached agreement on a one-year deal, per Adrian Wojnarowski.

A depth piece for the Heat during their postseason run, Hill will head to the Hawks to round out their forward group, providing some defense and shooting. Atlanta's got a pair of excellent power forwards already so Hill won't play a large role and may not even be in the rotation. Funnily enough, Hill spent about two weeks as a Hawk last offseason after a series of trades.
