Anthony Edwards, De'Aaron Fox and Pascal Siakam named NBA All-Star Game replacements

The NBA on Friday announced three injury replacements for next week’s All-Star Game. Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards, Sacramento Kings guard De’Aaron Fox and Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam will replace Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry, New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson and Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant in the Feb. 19 exhibition.

Philadelphia 76ers guard James Harden, Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young, Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Darius Garland and New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson would be among the leading replacement candidates, should Brown sit out the exhibition.

Early success means Jazz have some options to consider on trade market

Atlanta approached the Jazz about swapping Collins for Markkanen, sources said, which did not generate any traction. A good player on a hefty long-term contract only carries so much trade interest when it’s perceived to be above market value. Elsewhere in Atlanta, keep an eye on Justin Holiday this trade season, as rookie forward A.J. Detroit has taken early calls on Bey from inquiring teams, sources said, a change in behavior from recent trade windows. The final week of November will be integral in the Lakers’ decision-making ahead of this unofficial trade season.

How family and international play have been the guiding forces of Lauri Markkanen's NBA resurgence

From an NBA team’s perspective, any exhibition play presents obvious injury risk. The key [now] is to play that way when you don’t have minutes [in the NBA],” Hernangomez told Yahoo Sports. “That’s when we got really excited,” former Bulls coach Fred Hoiberg said. And yet the desire to reunite All-Star Jimmy Butler with his former Bulls coach, Tom Thibodeau, proved all too tantalizing for Minnesota. Markkanen watched Chicago play the Trail Blazers and Clippers from his wife’s bedside.

Fantasy Basketball Rankings: Whose value is rising and falling after the first full week of NBA action?

RISERSAndrew Wiggins - SG/SF, Golden State Warriors — Current per-game rank: 5thI can't make a riser list that doesn't include Andrew Wiggins. I had to do a double-take when I saw that he's currently fifth overall in per-game value through the first week of the 22-23 NBA season. John Collins - PF/C, Atlanta Hawks — Current per-game rank: 6thIt's very early, but the initial results of the Dejounte Murray and Trae Young experiment look promising. Myles Turner - PF/C, Indiana Pacers — Current per-game rank: 474stI drafted Myles Turner in a very competitive league, and I came away feeling great. He's currently 171st in per-game value, and the Celtics' small-ball lineups could be of concern for Horford's future outlook.

Cavaliers add All-Star G Mitchell, jump into East title hunt

The Cavaliers are back in the Eastern Conference title hunt.

AP source: Cavaliers acquiring All-Star G Mitchell from Jazz

CLEVELAND — (AP) — Donovan Mitchell is headed east. The All-Star guard is on his way to the Cleveland Cavaliers, who acquired one of the NBA's best scorers Thursday in a blockbuster trade with the Utah Jazz, a person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press. There had been speculation for months that Mitchell might get moved, and it appeared the New York Knicks were the frontrunner for him. Mitchell, who averaged 25.9 points per game last season, will pair with All-Star point guard Darius Garland and he'll play along with All-Star center Jarett Allen and forward Evan Mobley, who had a strong rookie season. He's a proven scorer but he became expendable for Cleveland due to Garland's development and the club's talented frontline.

CHICAGO – The Chicago Bulls weren't on Billy Donovan's radar when he and the Oklahoma City Thunder parted ways after five successful seasons. So this kind of came out of left field for me.”The Bulls introduced Donovan as their coach on Thursday, two days after they announced they landed arguably the most attractive candidate on the market to help turn around a struggling team with new management. Donovan met in person with Karnisovas and Marc Eversley for 5 1/2 hours to get the process in gear. And when Donovan accepted the job, Karnisovas said, “I could not stop smiling.”Hiring Donovan was a rare big and bold move for the Bulls. Donovan said he was “taken aback” by Karnisovas' vision and is looking forward to “working hand in hand” with him.
