    After finishing 24–58, 76ers president Daryl Morey confirmed both he and coach Nick Nurse will return next season. The front office plans a roster overhaul built around a younger, more dynamic core to support Embiid, Maxey, and George.

    The Denver Nuggets have fired head coach Michael Malone and general manager Calvin Booth, days before the season ends. Lead assistant David Adelman will step in as interim coach. Malone, who coached Denver to its first NBA title in 2023, had led the team for 10 seasons.
    Mounting losses (11-13 post-All-Star break), locker room tension, and a reported “cold war” between Malone and Booth contributed to the decision. Ownership cited “worrisome trends” and underachievement despite championship talent led by Nikola Jokic. Adelman, a long-time assistant, now guides the team into a turbulent playoff push.

    Incident occurred late in the Grizzlies-Warriors game on Tuesday night.

    The NBA has launched an investigation into Ja Morant’s finger-gun gesture directed at the Warriors’ bench, as well as a gesture by Buddy Hield moments earlier. Both players received technical fouls.
    Morant extended his left arm and mimicked firing guns with both hands during a timeout with 20.1 seconds left. Given his past suspensions for real firearm-related incidents on social media, the NBA is taking this act seriously and will speak to involved parties.

    Draymond Green nearly joined Memphis in 2023 via sign-and-trade before a $100M Warriors deal. Memphis aimed to replace Dillon Brooks with veteran leadership and tried radical offensive reforms this season.
    Green called Warriors teammates to signal his possible departure before Golden State intervened. The Grizzlies revamped coaching staff and offense under assistant Tuomas Iisalo, but lack of buy-in and poor results led to Jenkins’ late-season firing. Internal confusion, front office-driven overhaul, and player skepticism derailed the vision.
