Reggie Jackson signs with Nuggets

After being traded by the Clippers to the Hornets, Charlotte and Jackson worked on a contract buyout. It is being reported that the contract buyout was a success and the Denver Nuggets will be signing him.

Once he clears waivers, Jackson will sign with Denver and the Nuggets will have reinforcement at the point guard position. They were running low after trading Bones Hyland at the deadline.

This agreement by Reggie Jackson makes sense because he gets to play with an elite group of players (mainly two-time MVP Nikola Jokic), is guaranteed a playoff spot due to being number one in the West, and playing for a team that has great odds to go deep into the postseason in hopes of winning a championship.

Joel Embiid (Sinus) Upgraded Questionable For Friday

According to the Philadelphia 76ers, Joel Embiid has been upgraded to questionable for Friday’s game against the Charlotte Hornets.

The plan is for the team to reevaluate the 30-year-old hours before their game on Friday; it would be a quick turnaround. However, he is already progressing, so there is a possibility of him playing.

Embiid suffered a right sinus fracture during their game against the Indiana Pacers on December 13th; Philadelphia said they would reevaluate him a week from then.

Overall, Embiid has only played six games this season. This is mainly due to suspension, this current injury, and looming knee issues.

Hawks Want To Trade Clint Capela By Deadline

According to multiple reports headlined by Marc Stein, the Atlanta Hawks want to trade Clint Capela’s expiring contract by this year’s trade deadline.

For those unaware, the 30-year-old is making $22.4 million this season, with him becoming an unrestricted free agent next offseason. Atlanta is reportedly not interested in re-signing him.

Onyeka Okongwu, when Capela is no longer with the franchise, is expected to handle the starting center position. The Hawks believe the young big man can handle those responsibilities.

Capela is averaging 10.0 points and 9.4 rebounds in 27 games this season.
