Phoenix Suns has just hired rookie head coach Earl Watson for about $2.5 million per year for a three-year deal, making him the lowest paid coach in NBA today. The team seems consistent in its habit of hiring inexperienced coaches and staff with low pay under Robert Sarver's executive stewardship of the franchise which has experienced its worst record performance in years including a six-year playoff drought under him.
LA Lakers is expected to mobilize its enormous cap space to sign in badly-needed recruits to build a serious title contender following a disastrous two-year losing streak. Reports indicate that the team is eyeing to get Warriors giant Festus Ezelie to fill in the team’s 2016-17 center vacancy.
In its effort to rebuild a more credible and stronger lineup following its worst record performance in the 2015-16 season, Lakers is reportedly eyeing Paul George in its shopping list in free agency season. With a huge cap space, it can offer lucrative deals for trade but Indiana may probably ask for more before parting one of its prized asset.
The Indiana Pacers announced that although Paul George has been cleared to go, there is stil no return timeable.
Indiana Pacers forward Paul George has issued an apology after posting a series of insensitive tweets concerning domestic violence. George has since deleted the tweets.
