ESPN's Malika Andrews reported on Friday that Bruce Brown has signed with Denver on a two-year deal with over $13 million.

Mitch Rob getting $15 mill a year, while Hartenstein gets $8 mill. so apparently Hartenstein is still a backup. Wolves could have outbid Knicks either in terms of money or playing time or or both for Hartenstein, plus the chance to be a starter.

The deal is worth $18.4 million, per Chris Haynes

If Rubio is healthy that's a pretty good deal for the Cavs.

Yeah that's a great deal for the Cavs! Per, RW: Rubio is recovering from left ACL surgery and may not be ready to play until the calendar turns to 2023, but that didn't dissuade the Cavs from aggressively pursuing him. The Cavs were 20-14 with Rubio in the lineup, but they boasted a net rating of +6.5 in those 34 games (for perspective, the Warriors led the NBA with a +4.9 net rating last season).

Thanks is large part to Lip... I came around on Hartenstein. His defensive numbers are great... as is his improved passing.

Maybe I'm missing something, but $8M seems quite reasonable for the guy.

I think that's what Noel is getting.

Chris Haynes reported on Friday that Otto Porter Jr. has signed a two-year deal with Toronto. (No info on how much he's getting paid)

NBA All-Star Zach LaVine has agreed to a five-year, $215.2 million maximum contract to return to the Chicago Bulls, with a player option in Year 5.

Once the San Antonio Spurs finalize the expected release on forward Danilo Gallinari, his preference is to join the Boston Celtics upon clearing waivers, sources tell ESPN. Danilo Gallinari plans to sign a two-year, $13 million deal with a player option on the second season after he clears waivers.

I'm legitimately happy for Zach LaVine. Knew he'd become a star. Glad he stayed healthy enough to prove that. Always seemed like a really good guy too.

Free agent C Jusuf Nurkic has agreed on a new four-year, $70 million deal to stay with the Portland Trail Blazers.
