The Michelob Ultra sprayed about the Denver Nuggets’ locker room on Monday night has barely dried, but the NBA offseason is upon us and the league sleeps for no one.
There are already rumors abound about which star players are being targeted by teams to acquire, and there is no shortage of big names that could be available. Today, let’s discuss some of the latest rumors around the key players in the league, and what bets we can make based on those rumors.
It would seem that Portland is outwardly declaring its intentions to keep Lillard in the fold. ESPN NBA analyst Brian Windhorst made it known in a recent report that the two are committing to one another ahead of the draft next Thursday:

But I have no indications that the Blazers are doing anything with Dame, or that Dame is pushing in that direction.”
