The Minnesota Timberwolves have signed guard/forward Jules Bernard to a training camp contract, according to Paul Garcia of The Spot Up Shot. It marks his third deal with Minnesota in less than a year after a camp stint last fall and a brief two-way contract in February. Bernard averaged 22.1 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.2 assists, and 1.1 steals across 45 games with the Iowa Wolves last season. With LaMelo Ball, Anthony Edwards, Ayo Dosunmu, Bones Hyland, and Terrence Shannon Jr. already in the backcourt, Bernard faces a difficult path to NBA minutes. Another stint in Iowa remains the likeliest outcome, leaving him off the fantasy radar.

Philadelphia 76ers center Adem Bona (foot) was diagnosed with a sprain after getting hurt while playing for Turkey in the FIBA World Cup qualifiers and will be reevaluated at the start of training camp. Bona averaged 8.8 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 3.0 blocks across four qualifiers and is expected to resume on-court workouts within the first two weeks of camp. The 23-year-old posted 4.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks in 17.4 minutes last season. Ariel Hukporti should get an early opportunity to compete for backup minutes behind Joel Embiid, but Bona's shot-blocking gives him fantasy appeal whenever his role expands.

Free agent guard Trevor Keels has agreed to an Exhibit 10 contract with the Washington Wizards, according to Spotrac's Keith Smith. The Capital City Go-Go recently acquired his G-League rights, giving Keels a likely landing spot if he is waived after camp. The Clinton, Maryland, native averaged 20.1 points and 3.3 assists while shooting 40.2 percent from three across 27 regular-season games for Sioux Falls last season. He later earned a two-way deal with Miami but played only 15 NBA minutes across eight appearances. With Trae Young, Tre Mann, and several young guards already in Washington's backcourt, Keels will need to earn a two-way spot before carrying any fantasy relevance.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Saddiq Bey has agreed to a three-year, $55.5 million extension, ESPN's Shams Charania reports. The fully guaranteed deal includes a trade kicker and runs through 2029-30. Bey missed all of 2024-25 after tearing his left ACL, then returned to average a career-high 17.7 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 2.1 threes in 31.2 minutes across 72 games. He finished third on New Orleans in scoring. Bennedict Mathurin's arrival gives new coach Jamahl Mosley another wing scorer alongside Trey Murphy III and Herbert Jones, which could trim Bey's touches. Still, Bey should retain a steady role and remain a useful source of points and threes.
