Micah Potter to be Waived by Pacers
Indiana Pacers center Micah Potter will be waived to complete the team's signing of Larry Nance Jr., according to Alex Golden of Setting The Pace. Potter's $2.8 million contract was non-guaranteed, and the move creates a small cap savings for Indiana after adding Nance on a veteran-minimum deal. The 28-year-old had a useful run last season, averaging 9.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.5 assists across 47 games while shooting 42.3 percent from three-point range. Potter's stretch-big skill set could draw interest elsewhere, but he falls off the fantasy radar until he lands another NBA role.

Myron Gardner to Miss Remainder of Summer League
Miami Heat forward Myron Gardner (ankle) will miss the remainder of Summer League after spraining his ankle in Friday's California Classic opener against the San Antonio Spurs, according to Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel. Gardner exited that game after posting two points, four rebounds, and two assists in seven minutes, then missed Sunday's matchup with the Lakers. The injury costs the 25-year-old valuable developmental reps after he averaged 3.6 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.0 assists for Miami last season. He remains off the fantasy radar unless injuries open a clearer regular-season role.

Marcus Sasser Acquired by Mavericks in Six-Team Trade
Dallas Mavericks guard Marcus Sasser was acquired from the Detroit Pistons as part of a six-team trade, according to Mavs PR. Dallas also added Santi Aldama and the draft rights to Tarik Biberovic in the deal. Sasser had a limited role in Detroit last season, averaging 5.2 points, 1.0 rebounds, and 2.0 assists across 12.0 minutes per game. The 25-year-old shot 41.5 percent from three-point range, which gives him a useful path to bench minutes in his new home. However, his immediate fantasy ceiling is severely capped by a crowded depth chart. With Kyrie Irving returning to health to anchor the backcourt alongside Ryan Nembhard and rookie Sergio de Larrea, Sasser will have to fight for consistent reserve reps under new head coach Dusty May. Until he carves out a definitive rotation role, his fantasy value remains thin.

Mo Bamba Returns to Jazz on Two-Year Deal
Free-agent center Mo Bamba agreed to a two-year deal to return to the Utah Jazz, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. Bamba appeared in four NBA games last season between Toronto and Utah, averaging 2.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 0.3 assists, but he was more productive with the Salt Lake City Stars at 16.2 points, 12.0 rebounds, and 2.0 blocks per game. The 28-year-old gives Utah another rim-protecting depth option behind Jusuf Nurkic. Bamba's blocks remain the fantasy hook, but he needs a real rotation role before becoming more than an injury-dependent streamer.
