with potentially more to come, incredible for a pop. of 25 million.

Landale waived

Landale will get picked up somewhere.

Taran Armstrong was technically with the Warriors this season too

I don't care unless this helps the Boomers dominate internationally.

Next year you can add Dash Daniels and Alex Condon and probably subtract Mills and Ingles realistically

Fingers crossed, ME. And hopefully there will be others we haven't thought of.

Don't see Landale getting another NBA contract

Landale is still a net positive player when he's on the floor. He does everything pretty well and won't cost much. The only way he won't be in the NBA next season is if he chooses not to (which could happen)

Just for reference Landale's stats in Houston this season

=41 games, 3 starts
=12 minutes a night
=4.6ppg, 3.3rpg, 0.9apg, 0.3spg, 0.2bpg
=Shooting clips of 51% from the field, 40% from 3 and 67% from the line

His scoring and shooting percentages have been on the decline for a few years, but this was his best season from down town and he was right on par with his career average in boards

Is he a net positive because he was on a good team so played garbage time when the game was over?

No he's a net positive because the team performs as well with him on the floor as it does with him off.

He's a very solid backup big. At WORST he's a third string Centre on a good team.

Could see him landing almost anywhere.

Cavs trade for Lonzo ball from the bulls in exchange for Isaac Okoro. Clears a guard spot at the bulls which makes it clearer that they're gonna pay for Giddey.

I think for the Cavs it means they're not willing to pay overs for Ty Jerome who was pretty average in the playoffs. Might help Proctor to stick with him theoretically competing with Okoro for the defensive wing minutes.

Fair enough, just looked up landales plus minus on AI and this is what it said.

Jock Landale Plus/Minus Overview
Recent Plus/Minus Stats

For the 2024-25 NBA season, Jock Landale has a plus/minus of -25.

In his rookie season (2021-22), Landale recorded a plus/minus of -17.

Career Plus/Minus Insights

Across his career, Landale's plus/minus has generally been negative, indicating his teams have been outscored while he is on the court.

In terms of game-by-game impact, Landale has posted a positive plus/minus in 40.5% of his games.

His ON-OFF differential (team points difference when he is on the court minus when he is off) is -7.4, suggesting the team performs worse when he plays compared to when he sits.

Ouch!

McVeigh waived by Houston

Landale's box plus/minus (which adjusts for a player's impact compared to league average) and he's a 0.4 which puts him above league average (albeit in non qualifying minutes). This puts him on par with the likes of Myles Turner.

He's basically an average NBA back up centre. He's going to be fine.

Oh, I thought you said his team performs as well with him on the court as it does with him off. That's not the case, even compared with other backup centres.
And on par with Myles Turner, bit of research revealed this:

Myles Turner's plus-minus for the 2024-25 NBA season was +202. This represents the total point differential when he was on the court across all games in the season. Additionally, his average plus-minus per game was approximately +2.0.

Further advanced stats show:

He had a positive plus-minus in 61% of his games played.

The Pacers were +3.3 points per 100 possessions better with Turner on the court compared to when he was off.

These figures highlight Turner's positive impact on the Indiana Pacers' performance during the 2024-25 season.

I was using BPM not raw plus minus but fine he's trash and will be lucky to get a game on Monday night social league. Happy?

Travers and Armstrong both have qualifying offers for 2-ways so if they want they'll at least be able to do that again next season. Figure that's more likely for Armstrong but Travers might be a chance at a full-time gig.

Somewhat shockingly, Ingles is returning to Minnesota next season

Yeah I am surprised about Ingles too. Happy for him but he might get the Udonis Haslem not playing a minute treatment there

Exum resigns for another season at Dallas

So apparently Landale and the Rockets agreed to push the team option out to July 7th, which might facilitate them using him in a coming move.

Kelly Iko reporting that the DFS signing with the Rockets might be turned into a sign-and-trade. This would benefit both the Rockets but keeping their MLE available and giving them more flexibility with the deal, and the Lakers by getting something back in return. I've seen a couple of reports that Landale might be involved in that which would give the Lakers a back up big and also a tradable contract if they need to later in the year.

McVeigh to play summer league for Atlanta

Houston has decided to wave Landale so at least he'll be able to start looking for a new team now.

Magnay to player summer league for Memphis
