☆ Analysis, fits for all 58 NBA Draft picks from John Hollinger and Sam Vecenie
  + stars: | 2024-06-26 | by ( John Hollinger | Sam Vecenie | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +109 min
He’s going to be a killer rebounder, monster screener and will consistently establish his position even against some of the stronger NBA players. I’m done doubting Edey, even as an NBA player. As an enormous ballhandler with serious touch and incredible vision as a passer, Topić is clearly an NBA player, even if it doesn’t all translate. Shannon is an elite athlete, but the NBA game requires more nuance, especially if he continues to be an inconsistent shooter. However, I also think he’s more than just a floor spacer on offense in spot-up situations and potentially as an off-ball scorer.

☆ Deni Avdija Agrees to 4-Year, $55M Extension With the Wizards, AP Source Says
  + stars: | 2023-10-23 | by ( Associated Press | Oct. | At A.M. | ) www.usnews.com   time to read: +1 min
Deni Avdija has agreed to a $55 million, four-year extension with the Washington Wizards, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Monday. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team hadn't announced the agreement. The 22-year-old Avdija started a career-high 40 games last season and averaged 9.2 points and 6.4 rebounds. The agreement ahead of Monday's deadline for rookie scale extensions keeps Avdija in Washington, where he is somewhat remarkably the longest-tenured player on the Wizards. Avdija, a 6-foot-9 forward from Israel, has averaged 8.1 points in 212 career games.
