Some noise out there today that Chicago might be asking for more than expected for Andre Drummond at the deadline, maybe even keeping him.
Might be smoke — has been out of the Bulls rotation at times — but something to keep in mind with his name coming up as a Sixers possibility – 1:12 PM

@AnilGognaNBA
MIA has traded D. Dedmon and a ’28 2nd to SAS in exchange for the minimum amount of Cash required to execute a trade ($110K).
MIA was $200K < the tax and are now $4.9M < with a newly created $4.7M TPE.
Dedmon is essentially an expiring with $0 of his $4.3M GTD for next season. – 12:25 PM

@AlexKennedyNBA
The New York Knicks, Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks are among the teams that have expressed interest in Zach LaVine, per @JamalCollier.
It seems unlikely that LaVine gets dealt prior to the deadline, but this may be a situation to monitor. basketballnews.com/stories/report… – 11:57 AM

@Matthew_Tynan
There is always the possibility San Antonio moves one of its centers, but even if they do I would be surprised if they hung on to Dedmon. His previous stint here did not end very well. – 11:56 AM

@AlexKennedyNBA
Just months after the Bulls signed Zach LaVine to a five-year, $215 million extension, rival executives get the sense that LaVine “isn’t considered off the table” in trade talks, reports @Matt Moore.
Chicago would want “star assets” back for LaVine. basketballnews.com/stories/report… – 11:54 AM

NEW from @Anthony Chiang and me: Heat trades Dedmon to Spurs, giving Miami more space, flexibility under tax line. The consequences, fallout: miamiherald.com/sports/nba/mia… – 11:52 AM


@johnhollinger
If “cash considerations” are indeed going from Spurs to Heat, it is almost certainly the “minimum consideration” in league trade rules of $110k – 11:43 AM

@flasportsbuzz
Heat now is $5 million under tax line, allowing them to take more salary back than they trade out in trade without exceeding tax OR fill two open roster spots without exceeding tax line. They had been less than $200,000 under line before today;2nd rounder sent to Spurs is in 2028 – 11:39 AM

@KeithSmithNBA
No surprise Dewayne Dedmon is being traded. That’s been building since that whole incident on the bench. And Miami needed create some flexibility under the tax line. They’ve done that now.
Spurs get closer to the floor, all for renting a little cap space in exchange for a pick. – 11:38 AM

@IraHeatBeat
The Heat have traded Dewayne Dedmon and his salary to the San Antonio Spurs for a 2028 second-round pick. The move affords the Heat space under the luxury tax to sign a replacement for Dedmon and another player (or convert Orlando Robinson to a standard deal). – 11:38 AM

@Anthony_Chiang
Heat trading Dedmon and a 2028 second round pick to the Spurs for cash considerations. By not taking a player from the Spurs, the Heat is now $5 million below the luxury tax line. – 11:35 AM

@ByTimReynolds
For the first time in Heat history, they’re making a trade with the Spurs. Details being finalized but Dewayne Dedmon and a second-rounder for cash considerations is the current framework, per source. – 11:29 AM

Triple take: Bulls 128, Spurs 104
1. DeRozan followed an all-too familiar script in helping down his former team.
2. Sloppy play continues without Jones, Sochan.
3. Remember, it’s all about development – and the Wembanyama sweepstakes.

Crack research from @Danny Leroux as we broadcasted. Klay Thompson’s 12-16 is only the 3rd game in NBA history where a player made 12 or more 3s and shot over 75% from 3. Steph vs the Pels in 2017 and Zach LaVine in that crazy game vs the Hornets were both 13-17. – 12:09 AM

Earlier tweet was worded poorly. Andre Drummond does have a player option for next year. So he could return to #Bulls for $3.36 million or opt out and become a free agent. – 11:20 PM

Andre Drummond: “I’m grateful and thankful to play this game. You never know when it can be taken from you. I never take this game lightly. I appreciate every moment I’m on that floor. When I get that chance, I try to play as hard as I can and give it all I have.” – 11:17 PM

Pop heaped praised on Doug McDermott when asked about the former Bull, saying his ability to move without the ball has made him a “great example” for the young guys: “In addition to that, he is a great kid, fun teammate. Everyone enjoys him. He’s been a great addition for us.” – 7:21 PM



@tom_orsborn
More from Pop on Spurs’ approach as losses mount: “It’s not about, ‘We’re losing these games. We don’t lose games here. We’re the Spurs.’ That’s all bull (bleep). We don’t do any of that kind of thing. This is all about individual development & what it takes to be part of a team. – 7:05 PM

@tom_orsborn
Pop reiterated to Chicago media that character & humor is what has sustained the team through all the losing:
“We do the silliest things that I wouldn’t even say publicly cuz it’s almost embarrassing, they are so silly. But they like it. It keeps them loose, keeps them going.” – 7:02 PM

First of many thoughts entering #TradeDeadline week:
-The end of Kyrie & the #Nets? Maybe not.
-Big man interest continues for #Celtics
-Intrigue around CHI, TOR could lead back to BKN
-I can’t stop thinking about Grant’s future
-What will Jazz do?

Any Rozier to Chicago trade scenario must involve Lonzo Ball to match salaries. But that’s where I see the talks falling apart – how can you value Lonzo right now? Yes, you have him under team control for 2 more years, but he hasn’t played basketball in 388 days. – 4:12 PM

Spurs have downgraded Jones (foot) from questionable to out for tonight. It will be the second game in a row he’s missed.
Keldon Johnson (ankle) remains questionable.
Rookies Wesley & Barlow are both available.
Spurs ruled Sochan (back) out yesterday for 2nd game in a row. – 1:35 PM

Tonight might be #Bulls‘ biggest must-win of the season. Spurs have lost 8 straight, and Bulls have to play again tomorrow at Memphis.

The ability to be able to include future 1sts in trades is extremely important for Front Offices when it comes to roster building.
POR really needs to work with CHI to adjust the protections on the 1st they sent them, which currently prevents POR from trading a 1st until 2030! – 12:28 PM

@DarnellMayberry
Andre Drummond was asked at Bulls shootaround if he expects to remain in Chicago beyond Thursday’s trade deadline.
“I don’t think expectations for anything is logical,” he said. “You can’t expect anything. This is the NBA. Anything is liable to…” theathletic.com/realtime/aPbiy… – 12:28 PM

@tom_orsborn
Post-shootaround outlook for two starters Spurs listed as questionable for tonight at Bulls:
Keldon Johnson (ankle) participated in shootaround, so it looks promising for an upgrade.
Tre Jones (foot) received treatment during the workout, so he could miss his second in a row. – 12:26 PM
