NBA Season 2025-26

Cam Thomas was waived by the Bucks.  Looks like he is the front-runner for this year?s Latrell Sprewell award for bad free agency decisions.

Looks like Moody just dislocated his kneecap trying to dunk. Yikes..

It was a non contact injury too. Hopefully he can come back from this gruesome injury.

The NBA has informed teams that the league is projecting a $165 million salary cap for 2026-27 -- $1M lower than previous outlooks due to a reduction in local media revenue, sources tell ESPN. Minimum salary $149M, tax level $201M, first apron $209M, second apron $222M also $1M lower each.

Not much to do.  We are still in essentially the same place we were before.  If we want to use the entire Simons TPE we will need to send out a larger salary, most likely Hauser.  Barring a trade we will be able to either use the MLE or resign Vooch if the goal is to stay under the tax, unless Vooch comes in very close to the minimum.  It gives the Celtics a little less room to work with, but the situation is not too different than it was before.

Gotcha.  Thanks.

Wemby states his case for MVP.

Wembanyama, who won NBA Rookie of the Year two years ago and was generally considered a lock for Defensive Player of the Year last season until he had to be shut down while dealing with deep vein thrombosis, has a three-part campaign pitch. "My first one would be that defense is 50% of the game and that it is undervalued so far in the MVP race. I believe I'm the most impactful player defensively in the league," Wembanyama said. "Second argument would be that we almost swept OKC in the season, and we dominated them three times with their real team. ... The third argument would be that offense impact is not just points."

I'd probably still go with SGA, but he has a case.
