Headed to New Orleans Jemison was waived by the Grizzlies earlier this week but will now have the opportunity to compete for minutes in the Pelicans' frontcourt rotation. In 2023-24, Jemison averaged 6.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 1.1 assists in 23.0 minutes across 25 regular-season appearances.
Headed to Atlanta Roddy made 65 regular-season combined appearances for the Grizzlies and Suns last year, averaging 6.5 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 18.1 minutes. Roddy will likely compete for a depth role in Atlanta's forward rotation.
Traded to Phoenix This is the second time Liddell gets traded in less than a month, as he was traded from New Orleans to Atlanta on June 26 as part of the deal that sent Dejounte Murray to the Pelicans. Liddell will compete for a depth frontcourt option for the Suns, but his chances of earning a meaningful role are very slim.
Likely out Saturday Exum fractured part of his right index finger against France in an exhibition and will likely miss Australia's opening match of the Olympics on Saturday. He's also doubtful for Tuesday's matchup versus Canada. Exum has avoided surgery and is expected to suit up for Australia at some point, but even if he does play, he'll likely be limited.
Headed to Dallas Edwards received a minimal role for Sacramento in 2023-24, averaging just 5.1 minutes across 54 regular-season appearances. In Dallas, Edwards is now set to split time between the Mavericks and their G League affiliate, the Texas Legends.
Inks deal with San Antonio Duke made four NBA appearances for San Antonio in 2023-24, averaging 6.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 12.8 minutes. This season, the 24-year-old guard is set to split time between the Spurs and their G League affiliate. While Duke did miss the Summer League due to an undisclosed injury, there is no indication that he will miss any of the 2024-25 campaign.
Headed to Denver Westbrook was traded from the Clippers to the Jazz earlier this offseason. The veteran guard was then waived and has now joined the Nuggets, as expected. In 2023-24, Westbrook averaged 11.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.1 steals in 22.5 minutes across 68 regular-season appearances. In Denver, the 35-year-old point guard will likely earn the backup point guard role to Jamal Murray.
