Yes, he was hanging out with Djokovic in Serbia. Both tested positive.

Dion and JR reunited with LeBron...this is gonna be epic!

Does anyone think a front line big time impact player will opt out? If so who are the guesses?

I doubt it, at least not on any of the teams that are actual contenders. Maybe you see an all-star caliber guy on a team like the Wizards or Magic or something opt out but I doubt even that will occur.

Hopefully Dion stayed in shape the last 3 months. If so, he’s got a golden opportunity and the Lakers will need him. Bradley is a loss, but Dion played a similar nice role as a solid defender and 10 ppg guy who could handle the ball in OKC. If he can play like that here, we’ll be ok.

Bertans isn't playing. Not like he's an all star or anything, but he's at least ok

I think I hear JR Smith's music!

Ha. Even if he signs, I think Caruso’s role expands and Dion is next up.

Parker and Hield positive

I think Bertans was already known before I made my post so I assumed he wasn’t significant enough to count. Might be mistaken though.

Yeah I'll give you that. I think it underscores how dumb it was to bring Washington and Phoenix back

Everything about this is dumb haha. It's all about the money.

What a career. Man, was he exciting back in his prime. Incredible to play that long.

 

[Knicks411]

There's now only one active player who played against Michael Jordan. (According to my friend, who is never wrong)

Pau Gasol (rehabbing foot injury, but wants to play another year to give himself a chance at one last Olympics), Nene (Rockets traded him to Hawks who then waived him-- not retired that I am aware of), Tyson Chandler (Rockets-- hope this is the answer you are going for)

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Is JR Smith really happening?

I feel like Silver may need to invoke a "for the benefit of the game " clause so Smith doesn't wreck the bubble.

Chandler was the guy. I thought Gasol was retired, isn't he a coach now or something?

Hadn't heard Gasol was coaching other than his free online academy. Here is a recent article I just found...

Pau: Lakers or Barca reunion 'attractive' options

Pau Gasol wants to return to the NBA next season but hasn't ruled out finishing his career in Europe.
