Bulls Could Drop Out of Bennedict Mathurin Sweepstakes
The Chicago Bulls were reportedly interested in signing restricted free agent guard Bennedict Mathurin. Both the Bulls and New Orleans Pelicans have reportedly shown interest lately, but Chicago might be pulling back. The Bulls are still rebuilding and aren't quite ready to make the financial commitment to a player such as Mathurin. The 24-year-old made $9.2 million this past season and is expected to get a hefty payday this offseason. The Bulls aren't sure where they sit long-term with their current players yet, so it seems unlikely that they'd be willing to sign Mathurin to a massive long-term deal. There is no official word that they're out on Mathurin yet, but he doesn't seem like a great overall fit at the moment.

Nikola Jovic is Open to Different Roles
Miami Heat forward Nikola Jovic is prepared to help the team however he can this upcoming season. According to Ira Winderman, Jovic will do whatever is needed, which currently seems to be a power role. The Heat would love to see Jovic make a jump similar to what Jaime Jaquez Jr. did this past season. The Heat traded Jaquez earlier this offseason, so in theory, Jovic could take over his role in the rotation. Last season, Jovic averaged 7.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 2.2 assists across 17.2 minutes per game in 47 contests. He's entering his fifth season in Miami, but he hasn't really shown much improvement in many areas. We'll see how the Heat handles his role in the rotation this upcoming season.

Moses Moody Targeting September Return
Golden State Warriors guard Moses Moody (knee) is currently working his way back from a season-ending knee injury. Moody suffered a torn patellar tendon in his left knee in late March. He is hopeful to be cleared and resume running and doing on-court activities sometime in September. This is a significant injury, so the Warriors aren't going to rush Moody back on the court. There is currently no timetable for Moody to get back into game action. This past season, Moody averaged 12.1 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.6 assists across 25.7 minutes per game in 60 contests. He's a solid role player for the Warriors, but isn't someone that must be stashed on the IR in fantasy leagues to begin the year.

Naji Marshall Signs Three-Year Deal with Mavericks
The Dallas Mavericks signed forward Naji Marshall to a new deal on Sunday. The two sides have agreed to a three-year, $52.2 million extension. Marshall has spent each of the last two seasons with the Mavs and has played well during his time there. This past season, Marshall averaged 15.2 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 3.3 assists across 29.5 minutes per game in 74 contests. He has been an important piece for them, especially when the Mavs have dealt with injuries in the frontcourt. He'll now be tied to the team until 2030, which is good for the team to have a knowledgeable veteran presence.
