SG - Seth Curry | Nick Smith Jr. | Bryce McGowens
SF - Brandon Miller | Cody Martin | Leaky Black
PF - Miles Bridges | Grant Williams | Davis Bertans | JT Thor

Warriors and Mavericks still working through details of sign-and-trade, which includes Hornets sending the Mavericks two second-round picks for Josh Green, sources tell ESPN. One of those picks could end up in Golden State. Thompson will land in Dallas on the three-year deal.

Tidjane Salaun had an efficient 10 points & 10 boards in just 18 minutes tonight. Hit his first three of Summer League too.
He just plays with an extremely high motor and is physical when attacking the rim, with a lot of similarities to an early Giannis. The shot is there too
Y'all aren't ready for when the Hornets become a good team. We have nothing to play for right now and are eliminated from the playoffs, yet Spectrum Center was ROCKING tonight.
The hype is going to be surreal.
Brandon Miller says everyone on the Hornets loves Miles Bridges off the court, and he's glad the Hornets re-signed him

Is Mitch Kupchak cooking? 👀
The Warriors just told the world they are prepared for Steph Curry to eventually take his talents elsewhere.
Imagine trying to explain in 10 years that you didn’t go for it all with a top-10 player because of Brandin Podziemski.
PJ, you WERE one of the problems. From being inconsistent af to not giving effort when you didn't feel like it. We traded you and immediately started playing better.
Go get this ring Coach Lee.
Miles Bridges is reportedly a fan of how the Clippers are willing to give players second chances, per
@BA_Turner
“People close to Bridges said that after seeing how Clippers owner Steve Ballmer has been willing to give players second chances, the team would be a great fit for
