By Shams Charania Verified, James Edwards Verified| Basketball RealGM Verified The NBA has traded dynasties for day-traders, the caste system for hunger games. In a sport that crowns a new champion every season for six seasons in a row, everything seems possible. While trading for Mikal Bridges doesn't transform the Knicks on its own, it fits within the larger meta of how top teams are built. Superteams are passé. What counts is the infrastructure around your best player.
By James Edwards Verified, Shams Charania Verified| Basketball RealGM Verified The Detroit Pistons will not guarantee the $4 million owed to Troy Brown Jr. and will waive him. Brown had a guarantee date of June 30th and will become an unrestricted free agent. Brown, who is represented by Calvin Andrews and Rich Paul, appeared in 22 games last season for the Pistons. Brown averaged 4.2 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 18.9 minutes. Brown was acquired by the Pistons at the deadline from the Minnesota Timberwolves as part of the Monte Morris deal.
