1. Mitchell's G5 appearance is doubtful
In the G4 match between the Cavaliers and Pacers series, the Cavaliers not only suffered a crushing defeat, but also added new players to their injury list. The team's leader Mitchell withdrew from the game early in the second half due to ankle discomfort. According to the revelation of famous reporter Shams, Mitchell has completed an MRI examination, and the results show that his ankle injury has relapsed, and G5 will also be suspected of playing. As the team's core, Mitchell averaged 28.9 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game, which is the team's most relied on offensive point. Currently, the Cavaliers are behind the Pacers 1-3 in a big score, and are only one step away from being eliminated. Mitchell's injury at this time is undoubtedly a worse injury for the Cavaliers.
2. Antetokounmpo applied for a deal
After two consecutive seasons ended in the first round of the playoffs, Antetokounmpo became increasingly dissatisfied with the current situation of the team. In recent interviews, Antetokounmpo was also open to leaving the team. According to the revelation of famous reporter Shams, Antetokounmpo has informed the Bucks management that he hopes the team can trade itself in the off-season, and he is very interested in joining a team without state income tax. Those who meet this requirement include the Spurs, Rockets, Grizzlies, Mavericks, Magic and Heat, and these teams are also quite interested in getting Antetokounmpo. After Antetokounmpo joins the trading market, he will definitely become the target of robbery this summer.
3. Durant may join the Rockets
After the Suns missed the playoffs this season, it is highly likely that Durant will leave the team. After the Rockets stopped in the first round of the playoffs, they once again exposed the team's lack of a player who made a final decision, and Durant would obviously be an ideal choice. Although he is 37 years old, Durant still maintains a good competitive state and is still the top offensive scorer in the league. According to TA reporter Kelly Iko, the Rockets have a strong desire to strengthen the off-season. They currently have a good lineup structure and team, and have enough chips to introduce a superstar, and Durant, Zion and Antetokounmpo will all be their targets of signing. Among these recruits, Durant has the greatest hope of joining. He has expressed his recognition and love for the Rockets more than once!
4.NBA started today with the 2025 draft pick draw at 7 am today. The lottery draw ceremony for the 2025 draft is about to be held, and the three teams, Jazz, Wizards and Hornets, have the greatest hope of winning the No. 1 pick. This year is a "super year" for the draft, including talented players such as Flagg, Dylan Harper, Espeley, VJ Echcomb. It is worth noting that Chinese player Yang Hansen is also on the list of this draft. His draft prospects are also optimistic all the way, and he has the opportunity to reach the end of the first round.
5. The Rockets are still confident in Jaylen Green
In this year's first round series, Jaylen Green's performance was undoubtedly disappointing, with only 13.3 points per game and shooting percentage as low as 37.2%. His performance was very difficult, and he could even be said to be completely lost. Despite their poor performance, the Rockets management is still full of confidence in Jaylen Green and they still hope to keep him in the lineup for a long time.
