The NBA Finals are set: It'll be Thunder vs. Pacers, starting Thursday night
The seeds for the 2025 NBA Finals began getting planted unknowingly in 2017, back when Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was about to enroll at Kentucky and Tyrese Haliburton was getting ready for his senior year of high school in Wisconsin. That was the year the Indiana Pacers traded Paul George to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Pacers landed Domantas Sabonis out of that deal. The Thunder would trade George in 2019 to the Los Angeles Clippers for a package that included Gilgeous-Alexander. The Pacers would trade Sabonis in 2022 to Sacramento for a package that included Haliburton.

What might the Los Angeles Clippers trade the Boston Celtics for vet guard Jrue Holiday?
What might the Los Angeles Clippers trade the Boston Celtics for vet guard Jrue Holiday? What might the Los Angeles Clippers trade the Boston Celtics for vet guard Jrue Holiday? The UCLA alum has found himself in the thick of the speculation about which players the Celtics might move on from to save money as they stare down a historically large payroll and tax bill thanks to the second apron restrictions in the new collective bargaining agreement (CBA). Holiday has even found his name floated in a few trade rumors, such as for the Dallas Mavericks and Clippers, coming from trusted NBA sources. Those rumors may have some truth at their roots, but even if they are, what could a team like the Clips send back to Boston in such a deal that would make sense for both sides? Cohost of the CLNS Media "Garden Report" podcast, Bobby Manning, linked up with guest Law Murray to talk it all over. Check it out below!

Report: Los Angeles Clippers expected to show interest in Boston Celtics vet Jrue Holiday
Report: Los Angeles Clippers expected to show interest in Boston Celtics vet Jrue Holiday There may be another suitor for veteran Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday this offseason. As the Celtics will likely try to clear salary this summer to diminish the punishing incoming payroll and tax bill their roster would be set to incur thanks to the new collective bargaining agreement (CBA), Holiday has been floated as one of the more likely players to be on the move to such an end. And now MassLive's Brian Robb reports that "Holiday is expected to be pursued by several teams on the trade market," lining up with similar reports from the likes of the Stein Line's Marc Stein, and "the Los Angeles Clippers are one team expected to show interest in the 34-year-old guard this offseason." Astute readers will recall that the Clippers were one of the ball clubs pursuing the UCLA alum before the Celtics successfully dealt for Holiday in 2023, so the rumbles make sense from what we know about what their front office values in terms of team building. Whether the two teams would be able to put together an offer that would make sense for both sides is another matter. But it is a possibility to monitor as the offseason unfolds, and a potential point of leverage for Boston to use in negotiations with other teams should they elect to consider moving on from Holiday.

Nuggets' Russell Westbrook say he's having surgery on his right hand to fix 2 breaks
DENVER (AP) — Denver Nuggets point guard Russell Westbrook said he was having surgery Tuesday to fix two breaks in his right hand that he suffered during the season. He wrote in his ' Word of Westbrook ' newsletter that he was 'grateful for everyone's support all year and I can't wait to be back out there at 100% soon. The comeback is already in motion.' The 36-year-old Westbrook is coming off a season in which he helped the Nuggets extend the Oklahoma City Thunder to seven games in the second round of the playoffs before being knocked out. He provided a boost off Denver's thin bench in the postseason. Westbrook averaged 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds and 6.1 assists in the regular season. Westbrook signed a two-year deal last summer, with a player option next season that would be worth $3,468,960. He has played for the Nuggets, Los Angeles Clippers, Los Angeles Lakers, Washington and Houston since spending 11 seasons with the Thunder. ___ AP NBA:
