We will also be covering other NBA news and updates, including the recent MVP discussion, Michael Jordan selling the Charlotte Hornets, and player injuries.
Jaylen Brown’s frustration with the Boston Celtics and Fans
Recently, there have been reports of Jaylen Brown‘s frustration with the Boston Celtics organization. It is speculated that the team’s struggles and potential changes in NBA free agency might be the cause of his dissatisfaction. Brown has been one of the Celtics’ key players, and his possible departure could have a significant impact on the team and Celtics fans.
There are rumors about Brown’s desire to leave Boston, with some NBA insiders suggesting that he may be looking for a change of scenery. This has raised concerns among Celtics fans, who are hoping that the team can retain one of their best players.
Ja Morant’s recent suspension
Ja Morant, the young star point guard for the Memphis Grizzlies, has been suspended for eight games by the NBA for displaying a gun on Instagram Live while he was being investigated for all of the other recent reports coming out. He’s set to return this week after getting back into game shape and seeking treatment in Florida.
Morant has had an impressive career so far, with a career-high of 44 points and an average of 19.8 points per game. He is also known for his speed and agility on the court, making him a popular pick for fantasy basketball managers. However, with his recent suspension, fantasy managers will need to consider their options carefully.
Other NBA news and updates
In other NBA news, Giannis Antetokounmpo talked about the ever-changing criteria for MVP. Joel Embiid also made headlines with his recent 30-point game streak, while Nikola Jokic continues to impress.
There have also been some recent NBA player injuries and surgeries, including Lonzo Ball‘s surgery for his knee injury. Ball is expected to be out for most, if not all, of the next season, which could have an impact on the Chicago Bulls’ performance.
On top of that, Michael Jordan is looking into selling a majority stake in the Charlotte Hornets. He’s had quite the roller coaster ride as a team owner while the Hornets have consistently been a bottom-feeder type of team during his tenure. The newest owner could finally bring some wins and fun back to Charlotte for once.
