Other notable news/rumors:

- If the Spurs don’t land Durant, there’s a good chance they’ll reach a deal with Pau Gasol.
- Manu Ginobili will return to the NBA for at least one more season.
- A report that Allen Crabbe and the Nets have reached an agreement on an offer sheet was refuted, but Crabbe will meet with Brooklyn this week.
- The Warriors have agreed to hire Mike Brown as their lead assistant coach.
- Sixers first-round pick Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot has signed his rookie contract.
- The Kings are rescinding their qualifying offer for Seth Curry, making him an unrestricted free agent.
