1. Mills serves as general manager of the University of Hawaii Men's Basketball Team

Today, the University of Hawaii officially announced that Clippers veteran guard Patty Mills has been officially hired as the general manager of the school's men's basketball program, and will be responsible for "supporting student-athletes' growth and guidance, and participating in key matters, including recruitment, fundraising and community participation."

Mills, 36 years old, joined the Clippers in February this year, averaging 3.8 points, 0.8 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game. His appointment as general manager of the University of Hawaii does not mean that he retired from the NBA.

2. Dinwiddie will serve as vice president of the Hawks

Today, according to Shams, the Hawks will hire 76ers executive Peter Dinwiddie to serve as senior vice president of strategy and analysis.

Peter Dinwiddie is 48 years old and has served as vice president of the Pacers. In October 2020, he became executive vice president of basketball affairs for the 76ers. Joined the Pacers in 2006 and promoted to Senior Vice President of Basketball Operations in 2017.

This season, the Hawks ranked 8th in the Eastern Conference with 40 wins and 42 losses, and failed to enter the playoffs. Due to the team's poor record, the Hawks fired former general manager Landry Fields on April 21 and appointed Saleh as the new general manager. There are major changes in management, and it is expected that the Eagles trading will also make big moves this summer. Currently, the team is looking for center forward, and the Pacers Turner is his pursuit.

3. The Clippers Chase Holiday

Today, according to reporter Jake Fischer, the Celtics are "very sure" to listen to Zhu Holiday's trading offer.

It has been reported before that the Clippers have a strong trading interest in Holiday.

Holiday, 34 years old, won the championship with the Bucks in 2021, joined the Celtics in 2023 and won the championship again in 2024. This season averaged 11.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game, and 9.5 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4 assists per game in the playoffs. Salary will be $104 million over the next three years. He is a Celtics defense expert and a team culture shaping player.

Holiday is the main player of two-time champions and two-time Olympic men's basketball championships. If this Fu Jiang can join the Clippers, he will help the Clippers achieve greater achievements next season.

4. Kidd is expected to join the Knicks

Today, according to ESPN reporter Brian Windhorst, Mavericks head coach Kidd may serve as the New York Knicks head coach. In this year's Eastern Conference Finals, the Knicks were eliminated by the Pacers 2-4, and the team fired head coach Thibodeau and are currently looking for a new head coach. Kidd and the Knicks are allegedly interested in each other.

Kidd is 52 years old this year. When he was a player, he played in teams such as the Mavericks and the Suns. He retired and started his coaching career in 2013. He served as the head coach of the Mavericks in 2021. He led the team to the finals last season, and eventually lost to the Celtics and missed the championship.

In February this year, the Mavericks sent Doncic away without asking for Kidd's opinion, which made Kidd very confused. This may be one of the reasons why Kidd is preparing to leave the Mavericks.

Kidd's contract with the Mavericks will expire in the 2026-27 season.

5. Garland underwent toe repair surgery

Today, the Cavaliers officially announced that Garland underwent a big toe repair surgery on his left foot on Monday local time and is expected to be out of the game for four to five months, and is likely to miss the start of the new season's regular season.

Garland's left foot big toe injury began on March 23 this year, but he still played in 80 regular season games with injuries. His injury worsened in the playoffs and missed four games. The Cavaliers lost to the Pacers 1-4 in the semi-finals.

This season's regular season, Garland averaged 20.6 points, 2.9 rebounds and 6.8 assists per game; he averaged 29.6 points, 4.7 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game in the playoffs.
