Phoenix Suns point guard Tyus Jones may once again be on the move this offseason. Michael Scotto of Hoops Hype reports that the Sacramento Kings are keeping tabs on Jones, who is set to become an unrestricted free agent. Jones reportedly sacrificed money and term last summer to sign with the Suns in hopes of contending for a championship. Unfortunately, reality turned out to be completely different. He's had three teams in three seasons and seems poised to move on again. The 29-year-old appears to be a good fit for the Kings, who lost their point guard De'Aaron Fox to the San Antonio Spurs midseason. Jones has provided solid value to fantasy managers, averaging 10-plus points for three consecutive seasons. He also recorded 2.3 rebounds and 5.3 assists this season, while shooting 41.4 percent from downtown on 5.0 attempts.


Houston Rockets forward/center Jeff Green will turn 39 in August but wants to play two more years in the NBA. "I want to play as long as I can," the veteran said on The Zach Lowe Show. "The goal is to get to 20 years, so two shy. Houston has been home for me for the last couple of years, and I want to keep it that way. Hopefully, we can make something work where I can retire there, whether it be 20 or 21 years. My wife says 20 and that's it. So, I think I know what that is. So, two more years it is." Considering he missed the entire 2011-12 campaign due to open-heart surgery, Green's longevity in the game has been remarkable. However, it's been a few years since he was a factor in fantasy basketball. In 2024-25, Green was limited to 5.4 points and 1.8 rebounds in 12.4 minutes across 31 games.


Houston Rockets center Steven Adams is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent in the summer, but the team is hoping to keep him around. Team sources have told The Athletic's Kelly Iko that Adams is seen as "the clear priority" amongst its unrestricted free agents this offseason. After missing the 2023-24 campaign due to a knee injury, Adams didn't play a lot during his comeback season, averaging 13.7 minutes across 58 outings, but he became a key piece for Houston late in the year. During the playoffs, Adams' playing time shot up to 22.1 minutes per game. According to Iko, the Rockets "are operating under the assumption Adams wants to return and will continue to speak with his representation about a possible extension." However, he also notes that Adams has plenty of interest around the league as an elite rebounder. Due to his health problems, Adams' fantasy value has deteriorated in recent years, but if he can stay healthy and log 20-plus minutes a night, the New Zealand big man might experience a renaissance in 2025-26.


Houston Rockets point guard Fred VanVleet is expected to remain with the team for the 2025-26 season. League sources have told The Athletic's Kelly Iko that the likelihood of VanVleet playing for a different team next season is "slim." The 31-year-old has a $44.9 million player option for next season, but Iko points out that he could also negotiate a new deal with the Rockets at a lower, team-friendly salary. VanVleet's time in Houston has been marked by ups and downs. During his debut season last year, he achieved a career-high of 8.1 assists, but in 2024-25, his numbers declined across most categories, averaging 14.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 5.6 assists. He shot just 37.8 percent from the field, his lowest percentage since his rookie year in 2016-17. Fantasy managers will undoubtedly hope for a bounce-back year from VanVleet next season.


According to Michael Scotto of Hoops Hype, "several executives" around the National Basketball Association believe Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis could be traded. The veteran is due to make nearly $31 million during the 2025-26 campaign. However, he's entering the final season of his current contract, so the franchise may look to move him while trying to avoid "massive tax implications." Porzingis played a significant role in helping the Celtics capture an NBA title. Unfortunately, he appeared in only 42 regular-season games in 2024-25 and was also limited by an illness during the playoffs. With that said, Porzingis is a productive fantasy option. However, his various health issues over the years will continue to negatively impact his fantasy value moving ahead.
