The Jazz and Knicks had stopped their NBA trade talks, but could a deal happen now? NBA Now host Chase Senior discusses these interesting NBA trade rumors on the show. Shams Charania (On Donovan Mitchell Trade Rumors) “After several weeks of no conversations, the New York Knicks and Utah Jazz recently re-engaged in trade talks centered on Donovan Mitchell. The Knicks and Jazz had a fresh trade conversation within the past week about potential packages for Mitchell, according to sources. There is no traction between the two teams on a deal, and no Mitchell trade is imminent for the Jazz, sources said. The Charlotte Hornets and Washington Wizards are also among the teams pursuing Mitchell. Throughout trade talks, the Knicks have made their interest in Mitchell abundantly clear, one source with knowledge of the situation said. The Knicks and Jazz seriously discussed a Mitchell trade during the NBA’s Las Vegas Summer League in mid-July, but talks stalled out and led to nearly a month of inactivity between the sides. Now, with training camp just over one month away, the sides have re-ignited talks. Hurdles toward a deal remain.”

The latest NBA news & rumors surrounding the 2021-22 NBA Champion Golden State Warriors take a look at the possibility of the Warriors’ dynasty breaking up after next season when Andrew Wiggins becomes a free agent, and Jordan Poole becomes a restricted free agent. Both Poole and Wiggins are eligible for contract extensions, but extending them both along with Draymond Green would give the Warriors a luxury tax bill in excess of $500 Million, which owner Joe Lacob has said he would not pay. Will Bob Myers be able to keep the Warriors intact, or will one of Green, Poole or Wiggins have to be moved on? Chat Sports host Chase Senior breaks down the latest rumors surrounding the Golden State Warriors. Check us out on Rumble for exclusive, uncensored content that you won’t find anywhere else! http://www.rumble.com/nbanow The Athletic On the Warriors’ financial situation: “Let’s do an exercise and get ambitious with it, ensuring everyone feels well-compensated for 2023-24. Give Wiggins an extension that starts around the $33 million he’s currently making. Give Poole an extension that starts around the $27 million range. Bump Green, who has a player option, into his decline-and-extend max of a $30.9 million starting salary. Thompson is already making $43.2 million that season. That zooms the total payroll for the 2023-24 season toward $222 million. The projected tax line is $161 million. The Warriors are willing to pay their players. But their enemy is the collective bargaining agreement and its luxury tax rules. The Warriors are living in the more punitive repeater tax. Crunch the numbers and you’re talking about a total bill (salary plus tax) of around $564 million.”

Draymond Green Latest: - Draymond is eligible to receive a max deal starting Aug. 3 - There’s been no traction on contract talks - Warriors are in a quandary: They can’t pay everybody Draymond Green’s Contract: 2022-23: $25.8 MM 2023-24: $27.5 MM (PO) Eligible: 4-year, $138.4 MM max The Athletic On Draymond Green Rumors “All indications, though, are that the Warriors have no plans to offer Green a maximum extension, and there isn’t any current traction on any type of extension. The typical pattern of this Golden State front office is to extend with one year remaining. Even Stephen Curry waited until one year remained before signing his max extension last offseason. Green has two years remaining on the maximum extension he signed in 2019. While he could opt out a year earlier, the Warriors’ current preference is to talk extension with Green next summer.”
