By Luke Adams | at September 14, 2026 10:23 pm The Nuggets have emerged as a possible suitor to watch for free agent forward Cam Whitmore, reports Marc Stein of The Stein Line (Substack link). The 20th overall pick in the 2023 NBA draft, Whitmore was traded last month from the Wizards to the Cavaliers, who waived him in a cost-cutting move in order to finalize their roster moves ahead of the preseason. Whitmore, 22, averaged 10.8 points and 3.4 rebounds in 17.4 minutes per game over the course...

Cavaliers Just as the Cavaliers finished reshaping themselves for another run through the Eastern Conference, Toronto added Kawhi Leonard. That qualifies as an inconvenience.

For once, the Cavaliers don’t need training camp to determine their starting lineup. The more interesting competition will take place behind it. Craig Porter Jr., rookie Meleek Thomas and second-year guard Tyrese Proctor enter camp as the primary candidates for Cleveland’s backup point guard minutes, as Mack Perry of NBA on SI examined. Porter should begin with the advantage. He knows Kenny Atkinson’s system, defends, rebounds exceptionally well for his size and averaged 3.2 assists in 17.9 mi...
When you think of August, most people don’t think of sports news unless you’re following MLB or MLS. In the NBA, August means preseason prep. However, under the new CBA, small deals continued to happen throughout the summer.

Donovan Mitchell believes Evan Mobley had a huge postseason, but now he needs to build on it for the Cleveland Cavaliers to find success.
The Ohio State Buckeyes traveled to Austin, Texas, to take on the Longhorns in a game that got national attention. Jeremiah Smith was a hot story for Ohio State, passing for 100 yards before halftime. Smith’s performance caught the eye of Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell, who showed his excitement on social media during the […]

With only a limited amount of space open in the rotation, Cleveland will have to decide which of their young players will play consistently.
Timberwolves Jonathan Kuminga said his early conversations with Timberwolves coach Chris Finch have centered on two responsibilities. “Rebound and defend,” Kuminga said during his introductory press conference. “Those two will open up the rest of the stats.” That sounds like precisely what Minnesota needs after trading Naz Reid and Julius Randle in the deal for LaMelo Ball. Kuminga gives the Timberwolves size, athleticism and another versatile defender alongside Ball and Anthony Edwards. As Ry...
The Cleveland Cavaliers added more youth and athleticism in that of Peyton Watson.

The Hawks announced they’re holding training camp at Vanderbilt University in Nashville.

The Cleveland Cavaliers should give Mario Hezonja a real chance at making the rotation because of his proven production overseas and his versatile skill set.
Cavaliers Preseason basketball isn’t designed to provide many answers. But for the Cavaliers, it should at least provide a few useful first looks. Zach Weiss of Cavs On SI identified Peyton Watson’s early work with the starters as one of the things to watch. Makes sense. Watson needs to learn where Donovan Mitchell and James Harden want him, while the Cavs need to see how his ankle responds in actual game conditions. Watson is beginning a four-year, $88 million contract and is expected to prov...
The Knicks won the championship. Josh Hart would still prefer everyone to believe nobody respects them. “I don’t think we have a big target because I don’t think anyone is picking us to win again,” Hart said during ESPN’s U.S. Open coverage, via BasketNews. “We’re using it as fuel. We’re still the hunters. We’re not satisfied with one.” Whether nobody is picking the Knicks to repeat may be a slight exaggeration. They just rolled through the postseason, sweeping the 76ers and Cavaliers before b...
The Cleveland Cavaliers are stuck with their current core.
