[*] The Lakers signed Robert Upshaw to a contract for multiple years, though how much is guaranteed is unclear. He'll have a chance to fight for a roster spot in training camp, I would assume.
[*] The D-League is poised for expansion, though I wouldn't expect a Wolves franchise next season, when a couple of new teams (perhaps the Hawks and Hornets) will probably start their own affiliates. Eventually we will probably get to 30 teams in the D-League, but it will take a while. Unfortunately.
[*] I assume that Markieff Morris eventually reports to training camp with the Suns and things get smoothed over somewhat, but right now he's the only Sun not at voluntary workouts, so we'll see how that develops.

Sounds like Upshaw gets like $35,000 guaranteed. Pretty good for a guy that put up those killer SL stats lol
