Trevor Ariza and Tony Allen both pick Dwyane Wade over James Harden because Harden can’t sacrifice to win a championship: Ariza: “When we’re playing a team sport and a team aspect of the game — what D-Wade has done, you can’t argue with who you have to go with. You gotta go with the person who wins, the person who’s going to give everything at all times…” Allen: “D-Wade won as a star and he won while passing the keys. They call it Wade County — you know how much ego you have to drop to say ‘this ain’t Wade County no more’ you see the sacrifice? I gotta give him his flowers for that.” (Out the Mud)

BREAKING: Cleveland Cavaliers All-NBA star Donovan Mitchell has agreed on a four-year, $273 million maximum contract extension that includes a player option for the 2030-31 season and a full trade kicker, CAA's Co-Head of Basketball, Austin Brown, tells ESPN.

Warriors decision makers have been given no indication at this hour that they are the firm LeBron James landing spot, per sources. There's a belief that they'll have plenty of appeal, but appears to be some level of recruitment required. https://x.com/ShamsCharania/status/2071988062259736871

@Jonathan_Feigen His teams had to be some of your favorites to cover I'd think, Jonathan.

The membership of the National Basketball Coaches Association joins the NBA family in mourning the passing of legendary Head Coach and Hall of Famer, Rick Adelman. Rick Adelman coached in the NBA for 29 years, serving as a Head Coach for 23 seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers, Golden State Warriors, Sacramento Kings, Houston Rockets and Minnesota Timberwolves. Over his coaching career, Rick won 1,042 games (10th all-time), was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in 2021 and received the NBCA Chuck Daly Lifetime Achievement Award in 2023. Coach Adelman also enjoyed an eight-year NBA playing career with the San Diego Rockets, Portland Trail Blazers, Chicago Bulls, New Orleans Jazz, and Kansas City-Omaha Kings. Adelman will be remembered not only as a coach and a player, but also as a mentor to so many in the basketball community. Rick was a husband to Mary Kay for 56 years; father to Kathy, RJ, Laura, David, Caitlin, and Patrick; and a grandfather of twelve. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Adelman family during this difficult time.
