Add this to the file of “What in the world is going on in the NBA?” So far in the last 24 hours Paul George, Jimmy Butler, and now Kristaps Porzingis have become available. With the Cleveland Cavaliers firing their GM, the Eastern Conference is going crazy.
The Utah Jazz have to be on the phone right now for Kristaps. Kristaps is the perfect power forward to play next to Rudy Gobert. One has to believe that Dennis Lindsey has to be trying to make this deal happen. A young phenom to place next to Rudy Gobert? Yes please.
More details to come ...
