NBA insider Ian Begley said the New York Knicks are waiting to extend forward-guard Mikal Bridges as they await the status of Giannis Antetokounmpo's availability.

Milwaukee Bucks general manager Jon Horst told The Athletic's Eric Nehm that he waived Damian Lillard and signed Myles Turner because he feels it's his "responsibility" to give Giannis Antetokounmpo the best chance of contending in the near future.

The Bucks officially turned the page this week after waiving Damian Lillard to clear cap space for their surprise free agency splash, a four-year, $108.9 million deal with Myles Turner. Just like that, the Dame-Giannis chapter ended. But before fully moving on, Milwaukee made sure the world remembered what these two built in just two seasons.
