Oklahoma City Thunder guard Luguentz Dort won't be going anywhere this offseason. As expected, the young guard has agreed to a new deal with the organization. Dort agreed to a five-year $87.5 million extension. The 23-year-old has tremendous upside on defense and can be a legitimate asset to this young core. He has been improving as a scorer, which is great to see. Clearly, the Thunder don't want to see Dort leave anytime soon. Hopefully, he'll continue to improve and boost his fantasy value next season.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons has agreed to a brand new deal with the organization. The young guard has agreed to a four-year $100 million deal. Simons averaged 17.3 points per game last season, but that was mainly because Damian Lillard was sidelined a majority of the year due to injury. It's unlikely that Simons is going to have the same success with Lillard healthy next season. That being said, Simons probably won't be anything more than a late round option on draft day.

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker has agreed to a four-year, $214 million extension with the organization. Last season, Booker averaged career-highs of 26.8 points, 5.0 boards, 4.8 dimes and 1.1 steals. He is a proven superstar and is certainly worth snagging in the first or second round of fantasy drafts. This extension will keep Booker in Phoenix through the 2027-2028 season. However, his fantasy value could change if the Suns are able to lure in Kevin Durant. Regardless, Booker is going to be a stud for years to come and is well-deserving of this extension.

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant, who requested a trade from the Nets on Thursday, has listed the Phoenix Suns and Miami Heat as two of the teams on his wish list, according to sources of ESPN. While those two teams could indeed be two of the frontrunners to land the superstar, the Nets will be looking to nab the best possible return for him, according to Adrian Wojnarowski. There will certainly be no shortage of suitors for Durant in the coming days and we should get a better idea of the leading candidates to land the 12-time All-Star soon.

The Utah Jazz have agreed to a trade that will send forward Royce O'Neale to the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for the team's 2023 first-round pick. It's been an eventful day for the Nets front office. It was also reported on Thursday that Kevin Durant had requested a trade and that the Nets had made their entire roster available for trades. The Jazz appear to have come out as big winners in this deal, despite losing the veteran presence of O'Neale. With Durant headed out of Brooklyn, the Nets' 2023 first-rounder could wind up being a lottery pick, and a potentially high one as well.

Brooklyn Nets star forward Kevin Durant has formally requested to be traded, according to multiple reporters, including ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. Woj reports that Nets general manager Sean Marks is now working alongside Durant and his manager to find a trade partner. This is certainly the type of development that can single-handedly shake up an NBA offseason. It was rumored that Durant was frustrated with the Brooklyn front office, and this latest news confirms it. The 33-year-old is coming off yet another sensational season in which he averaged 29.9 points, 7.4 rebounds and 6.4 assists per game while shooting 51.8% from the field and 91% from the line.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are expected to match outside offers for Collin Sexton that are "within reason," according to Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated. The team extended a qualifying offer to Sexton, so he is set to become a restricted free agent this offseason. He's been valued at $10-12 million per season by outside executives, but it will be interesting to see if a team goes higher than that and if the Cavs are willing to match it. Sexton, who missed the majority of the 2021-22 season with a torn left meniscus in his knee, has reportedly stated that he wants to remain a Cavalier.

Chicago Bulls point guard Coby White has been the subject of trade rumors this offseason. However, it seems likely at this point that he will be back in Chicago for the 2022-23 season. According to Joe Cowley of the Sun Times, the Bulls don't believe that other teams value White as highly as they do, making it hard for a trade to be completed. The 22-year-old averaged 12.7 points, 2.9 assists and 2.2 three-pointers per game last year while shooting a career-high 43.3% from the field. He has one year left on his contract with a qualifying offer for 2023-24.

The Brooklyn Nets have expressed interest in trading for Utah Jazz forward Royce O'Neale, according to sources of SNY. Other teams have reportedly expressed interest in the 29-year-old veteran as well. It's unclear at this point whether or not the Jazz would be open to moving him. He currently has two years left on his contract, including the upcoming season. He's due to make a little over $9 million this year. The former Baylor Bear has spent each of his five NBA seasons with the Jazz. Last year, he played 31.2 minutes per game and averaged 7.4 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 1.5 three-pointers per game.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (foot) had his 2021-22 season shortened due to a stress reaction in his left foot. The injury caused him to miss the final two-plus months of the regular season. According to sources of Fieldhouse Files, Turner is now fully healthy. One source reported that Turner was looking "explosive" in his workouts and that he hasn't had any setbacks in his recovery. The 26-year-old is entering the final year of his contract and he's set to make $17.5 million in 2022-23. With the Pacers in the midst of rebuilding, Turner's name has come up in a number of trade rumors and the fact that he's healthy certainly makes his name more intriguing on the trade market.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter could be headed for a massive contract at some point in the near future. According to HoopsHype's Michael Scotto, executives around the NBA have gotten the sense that the Hawks view Hunter as a core piece of their future. These executives believe that due to this fact, Hunter could land a long-term deal with an annual salary in the high teens or close to $20 million. The 24-year-old has certainly proven to be a valuable two-way player for the Hawks. Last year in his third NBA season, he logged 29.8 minutes per contest and contributed 13.4 points per game while shooting 44.2% from the field.

The New York Knicks have reportedly been shopping around power forward Julius Randle. Fred Katz of The Athletic broke this news and also reported that a deal for Randle is probably unlikely. The 27-year-old is on contract for four more years, including this upcoming season. He's due to make about $24 million in 2022-23. Katz stated that a Randle trade would require another player with an equally-sized contract to be sent back to New York. Randle had the best season of his career in 2020-21, his second season with the Knicks, but he took a big step back last year as he shot just 41.1% from the field and 30.8% from three-point range. In his monster 2020-21 campaign, he shot 45.6% from the field and 41.1% from downtown.

The Oklahoma City Thunder have exercised their team option worth $1.9 million on forward/center Isaiah Roby. The 24-year-old will be back in Oklahoma City for the fourth consecutive season in 2022-23. Roby has shown some promising flashes when given the playing time over the past few years. He scored a career-high 30 points in an overtime win against the Portland Trail Blazers this past March. He also compiled eight rebounds, four three-pointers, four assists, two blocks and two steals in the contest. His outlook for playing time isn't as strong going into this next year now that the team has brought in Chet Holmgren, but Roby is still someone to keep an eye on as he has a very fantasy-friendly game.

The Spurs have extended a $6.3 million qualifying offer to forward Lonnie Walker IV. He will now be a restricted free agent, so San Antonio can match any offer he receives from teams around the league. The 23-year-old is coming off the best season of his career, averaging 12.1 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 2.2 assists. Nevertheless, after Dejounte Murray was traded to Atlanta, Walker could receive a bump in production if he remains in San Antonio. However, there is talk the Spurs aren't looking to keep him, although he still may carve out a consistent role wherever he ends up in 2022-23.

The Warriors declined to extend a qualifying offer to guard Chris Chiozza. He will now be an unrestricted free agent. While there's a chance he could return to Golden State, it's highly unlikely. The 26-year-old has been in the NBA since 2018, suiting up for the Rockets, Wizards, and Nets before eventually landing in Golden State. During that time, Chiozza averaged only 3.3 points and 2.4 assists, so he's not expected to receive any fantasy attention moving toward the 2022-23 campaign, even if he finds a new home.

The Hawks declined to extend a qualifying offer to forward Kevin Knox II, making him an unrestricted free agent. Since being selected with the No. 9 overall pick of the 2018 NBA Draft, Knox hasn't done much of anything, averaging only 7.7 points and 2.9 rebounds. There's a decent chance he'll find another club. However, Knox will likely be a deep bench option wherever he ends up, so it's unlikely the 22-year-old receives any fantasy interest moving ahead.

The Trail Blazers extended a qualifying offer to guard Anfernee Simons on Wednesday. The move makes him a restricted free agent, giving Portland the edge in retaining his services. The 24th overall pick of the 2018 NBA Draft is coming off the best season of his career, averaging 17.3 points while shooting 40.5% from behind the arc. As a result, Simons will likely draw interest from numerous clubs around the league. However, he should remain an adequate producer on the fantasy end regardless of where he suits up in 2022-23.

The Timberwolves exercised the team option on forward Jaylen Nowell on Wednesday night, paying him nearly $2 million for 2022-23. The 22-year-old has averaged 8.1 points, 1.9 boards, and 1.8 assists through his three years in Minnesota. He's spent most of his time on the bench during that time, with his role not expected to change anytime soon. However, there's a chance he may be on another roster come October. If that's the case, Nowell's fantasy outlook could get brighter.

The Timberwolves have exercised the option on center Naz Reid. He will make around $1.9 million this season and will remain with the club that signed him as an undrafted rookie in 2019. The 22-year-old averaged 9.5 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.0 blocks during his three seasons in Minnesota. Yet, he averaged 15.5 points and 7.7 rebounds last season as a starter (six games). While he should spend most of his time on the bench, those numbers suggest there is streaming potential for fantasy managers if Karl-Anthony Towns isn't available at any point in 2022-23.
