Only one night! NBA 7 signings were reached, Lakers welcomed Rockets former player, Warriors ended their farce and signed two players in a row

Editor|Old Kankaan Ball

NBA new season is about to start, and the team that has been silent for the entire offseason has begun to return to training. The Rockets, the most anticipated Rockets this summer, recently announced the 18-man roster of training camp. After Van Vleet's season reimbursement, the management is not in a hurry to strengthen the backcourt. They will first inspect Shepard and Amen Thompson before making decisions; Tatum, who has just completed the Achilles tendon tear surgery, posted a video of returning to the court training, and his recovery is very fast. In addition, the league teams are also seizing the last chance to strengthen and strive to upgrade the lineup before the preseason starts.

NBA has reached 7 more contracts overnight. Let’s take a look at the specific transaction information.

01 The farce of Kumingga ended: The Warriors signed two consecutive signs

According to the latest report by Warriors Dalton Johnson, Jonathan Kumingga's qualification quotation deadline is this Wednesday, which also indicates that any possibility of signing first and then changing has basically disappeared, and the farce that has lasted the entire offseason has "end".

Dalton Johnson said: "The news I heard is: this is over." The final result of this tug-of-war: Most likely, Kuminga accepts a $7.9 million qualification offer and becomes a full free agent next summer. Previously, the Warriors insisted on only providing the conditions of "45 million in two years + team options + giving up the trade veto", while Kumingga insisted on asking for a contract that "the second year must be the player option", and the two sides broke up again.

So, the Warriors management decided not to wait anymore and officially signed the two strong players Horford and Melton. According to a joint report by famous reporters Shams and Siegel, 39-year-old Horford will receive a multi-year contract and will serve as the team's starting center in the regular season in the new season. The experienced veteran played 60 regular season games for the Celtics last season, averaging 9.0 points and 6.2 rebounds per game, and a three-point shooting percentage of up to 36.3%, which is very consistent with the lineup requirements of the Warriors and coach Cole.

In addition, Melton's return is equally crucial to the depth of the Warriors' backcourt. Melton, 27, suffered a serious injury from a torn ACL ligament of his left knee last season, and averaged 10.3 points and 3.3 rebounds per game, helping the team to reach the top in the Western Conference for a time. However, after his injury, the Warriors' record plummeted and Melton was forced to leave the team, but he has been training hard after the operation just to return to the field. Melton said he was "very excited" to be able to get the opportunity to play for the Warriors again.

02 Lakers strengthened: 3 signings and 2 resignations welcomed the Rockets' former player

This offseason, the Lakers officially established their team's cornerstone status after reaching a three-year, $165 million contract renewal with Doncic, and then assisted the management to win the No. 1 pick Ayton and former best defensive player Smart, continuing to contribute to the championship.

At the same time, the Lakers have recently completed a contract renewal with coach Redick. According to the famous reporter Shams Charania, Reddick once again received a two-year, 45 million early contract renewal of the Lakers, and the cooperation between the two sides will continue to at least until the 2029-2030 season. It is obvious that Redick's coaching level last season has been recognized by the Lakers' management, and he brought the team's regular season record to third in the Western Conference, which is indeed a surprise.

In addition, the Lakers officially announced that the team officially signed forward Anton Watson and defender Nate Williams, and at the same time cut back Tvian Jones and forward Eric Dixon, and the lineup was adjusted for 3 signings and 2 draws.

Nate Williams is the 2022 draft, 1.96 meters tall and weighs 93 kilograms, and plays as a defender. He played for the Rockets last season, averaging 7.4 minutes per game and scored 3.3 points. In his last season, he averaged 19.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.4 steals per game, and was eventually selected for the Atlantic League (MAC) All-National Team.

Anton Watson is the second round pick in 2024, 2.03 meters tall and weighs 102 kilograms. He played 9 games for the Knicks last season. In his last season, he averaged 14.5 points, 7.1 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.5 steals per game, and was eventually selected for the West Coast League (WCC) All-Night team.

It is obvious that the Lakers adjusted their team building strategy after Doncic renewed their contract and have begun to build a championship lineup around the new core. The Lakers said that Pelinka is using the renewal of Hachimura to put pressure on the Heat, urging Riley to trade Wiggins as soon as possible to find another qualified forward partner for Doncic.

03 Other information: The lineup of each team is fine-tuning

According to the latest report by famous reporter Jake Fischer, the Rockets have basically reached an agreement with Durant on the issue of contract renewal and will sign the contract soon. The team's contract renewal negotiations with young forward Tari Ethan are expected to take longer and there is no unified caliber.

In addition, the Clippers also completed two signings, reaching an Exhibit 10 contract with point guard Jamil Terford and shooting guard John Prakidas.

The Philadelphia 76ers also welcomed good news. Head coach Nass revealed that Embiid had a very high participation in training camp, not only actively participating in various tactical drills, but also high-intensity confrontational links. The return to the team may not be far away.
