Team USA announced that Kawhi Leonard is not going to Paris. His replacement is Derrick White.

 

(EDIT -- Reading the tea leaves (aka tweets) around, it sounds like Kawhi quit.)

According to Grant Hill, Team USA made the decision to send him home.

The WNBA has their new US media deal.  $2.2 Billion in value with NBC, ESPN, and Amazon splitting the rights.  

This is more than triple their previous deal.  This puts them monetarily, roughly on par with MLS. 

I'm guessing next stop on this train is expansion.

Golden State (2025) and Toronto (2026) are already announced, but I could easily see them going to 16 or 18. The talent is out there. I'd love to see a Houston franchise revived, and it seems ridiculous to me that Philly has never had a team. If they go to 18, I'd imagine they'd try Portland and another Florida team again (Miami seems more viable than Orlando).

EDIT: Of course, by "14 or 16", I meant "16 or 18", but my brain has partially melted. Fixed my numbers and have gone off to eat a popsicle.

Following up on that - Russ is going to be waived and the expectation is that he will then sign with the Nuggets

And Bronny "Not Even Good by Summer League Standards" James is evidently drawing a bunch of prop bets for ROY.  I wish I could find somewhere to place one of those "take the field" bets in this instance.

Hey now, he strung together a couple decent roleplayer games in a row. He's a lock for Rookie of the year and should be going up on the MVP odds board soon, right?

Steph Curry has signed a one year extension with the Warriors

1 year, $62.6 million. Keeps him in Golden State through the 2026-2027 season

He becomes the third NBA player to pass the $500 million mark in earnings (Lebron and KD are the others)
