The Scoop: Watford will provide Philadelphia with frontcourt depth after averaging several career highs with Brooklyn last season. Over 44 regular-season appearances (six starts) with the Nets in 2024-25, the 24-year-old averaged 10.2 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.6 rebounds across 20.8 minutes per game.

 The Scoop: Lopez's seven-year stint in Milwaukee officially comes to a close, as he has inked a contract with the Clippers on the first day of free agency. The 37-year-old started in all 80 regular-season appearances with the Bucks in 2024-25, averaging 13.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.9 blocks across 31.8 minutes. However, he averaged just 15.0 minutes per game in the playoffs. Lopez will serve as Ivica Zubac's primary backup, but if rookie first-rounder Yanic Niederhauser progresses well, Lopez could face some competition for playing time.

 The Scoop: The Spurs needed to bolster their frontcourt depth, and Kornet will likely operate as the backup center behind Victor Wembanyama. Kornet, an eight-year veteran, averaged 6.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.0 blocks per game across 73 regular-season outings with the Celtics in 2024-25.

 The Scoop: Green will remain in Houston for a third straight season after signing a veteran minimum deal. The 38-year-old big man averaged 5.4 points and 1.8 rebounds across 12.4 minutes per game in 32 regular-season appearances (three starts) in 2024-25.

 The Scoop: Tate and the Rockets were expected to work out a deal to keep the 29-year-old forward in Houston, and the details of the contract are now known. Tate appeared in 52 games, including the postseason, with Houston last season, averaging 3.6 points and 2.3 rebounds across 11.3 minutes. Expect Tate to battle for a rotation spot off the bench in 2025-26.

 The Scoop: Charania adds that the deal includes a team option for 2026-27, as well as a trade kicker. A return to Los Angeles always seemed inevitable for Batum, as he's spent a total of five seasons with the club. He was a valuable reserve for the team in 2024-25, posting regular-season averages of 4.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.7 steals and 1.1 three-pointers in 17.5 minutes per contest.

 The Scoop: Ingles is all set to re-sign with Minnesota to provide a veteran presence as well as frontcourt depth off the bench. The 37-year-old swingman logged just 6.0 minutes per game across 19 regular-season appearances in 2024-25, so his fantasy value will likely remain restricted while the likes of Julius Randle, Jaden McDaniels and Naz Reid are healthy.

 The Scoop: With this transaction, Bates is set to become an unrestricted free agent. The No. 49 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, Bates was always viewed as a long-term project, but he wasn't afforded many opportunities. He has a total of 25 NBA games under his belt with averages of 3.1 points and 0.8 rebounds.

 The Scoop: After making a strong impression on a two-way contract in 2024-25, the Suns will reward Gillespie with a standard deal. Gillespie made 33 regular-season appearances, posting averages of 5.9 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists while shooting 43.3 percent from beyond the arc.

 The Scoop: Juzang played a fairy significant role for the injury-riddled Jazz last year, averaging 8.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.6 steals and 1.8 three-pointers in 19.8 minutes per contest over 64 games. The 24-year-old also shot 37.6 percent from downtown in 2024-25, so he should be able to draw some interest in free agency this summer from teams in need of three-point scoring off the bench.
