Andre Drummond blocks three shots in 24 minutes on Wednesday

C, Detroit Pistons

On Wednesday, Andre Drummond produced 13 points, nine rebounds, three assists, three blocks and one steal in a win over the Mavs.

It was a vintage Drummond performance whose elite production in points, rebounds, field goal percentage and blocks looks to still be solid. One thing to keep an eye on – he's now attempted a three in back-to-back games. That may reduce his overall efficiency considering he missed both.

Malik Beasley
SG, Minnesota Timberwolves

The Wolves confirmed Malik Beasley will participate in their training bubble, despite being a restricted free-agent this offseason.

Free agents have trended toward skipping these training bubbles so Beasley's presence should be taken as a good sign he'll be returning to the Wolves next season. Juancho Hernangomez is also a restricted free agent but he will not be participating in the training bubble as he had already accepted a role in Adam Sandler's next film. That's not a joke, he is actually busy shooting with Sandler in Europe but would have joined the team had he been available, according to Wolves' GM Gersson Rosas. Based on this news the odds are Rosas will try and bring back both players next year.

Malcolm Brogdon
PG, Indiana Pacers

Ex-Thunder head coach Billy Donovan interviewed for the Pacers' head coaching vacancy last week and the team will begin conducting final in-person interviews soon, according to The Athletic.

Donovan is one of the biggest names on the market and will likely be interviewing for many of the teams looking for a new coach. The Pacers have been attached to several other names including Chauncey Billups and Warriors' assistant coach Mike Brown. Multiple teams appear to be heading into the final round of interviews with head coaching candidates, so expect to see a volley of headlines in the coming weeks as final decisions are made.

The Sixers will conduct in-person interviews with the finalists for their head coaching position, with former Rockets coach Mike D'Antoni, the Clippers' Tyronn Lue and former Thunder coach Billy Donovan among the final candidates.

Those are some of the biggest names on the market right now and The Athletic reports all three have a strong desire to lead the Sixers. Earlier this month it was reported that the team was close to signing a deal with Lue, but it appears with names like D'Antoni and Donovan becoming available the Sixers decided to reevaluate the decision. Of the many teams with a head coaching vacancy the Sixers are certainly the most tantalizing, so it's not surprising to see such big names vying for the position.

Coby White
PG, Chicago Bulls

The Bulls have narrowed their coaching search and will conduct final interviews soon, with Denver's Wes Unseld Jr., Philadelphia's Ime Udoka, Milwaukee's Darvin Ham and former Brooklyn head coach Kenny Atkinson making up the final four.

While the Bulls reportedly have not made a final decision yet, it should be noted that Vegas odds have shifted heavily in Unseld's favor recently. This is on top of the Chicago Sun-Times report that momentum within the Bulls for selecting Unseld has grown considerably as the Nuggets dispatched the Clippers. At this point it should be safe to consider the Nuggets' assistant the favorite to take over in Chicago.

Will Barton
SG, Denver Nuggets

Will Barton (left knee soreness) is unlikely to return for the Western Conference Finals as he continues to rehab his knee injury in Miami.

Barton hasn't seen the court since March and while the Nuggets have not given any updates on his injury, it's clear the soreness is significant. This news does not come as a surprise but it's still unfortunate for the Nuggets on the heels of a buzzer beater loss to the Lakers. Barton finished this season as the 66th ranked overall player, a major bounce back from the 2018-19 season where he finished outside the top-200. Hopefully his rehab goes well and he can continue putting up solid numbers next season.
