Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson remains on the roster after the team initiated a rebuild by trading Mikal Bridges to the Knicks. While other Nets will likely be traded heading into the 2024-25 campaign, Johnson could be the one with the most value. The 28-year-old struggled last season, finishing with averages of 13.4 points and 2.4 rebounds. He was also limited to 58 games due to injury and spent time coming off the bench. However, Johnson has an attractive contract, with the former Sun agreeing to a four-year, $108 million contract last offseason. With that in mind, the Nets offense had issues in 2023-24, so Johnson can't take all of the blame for his statistical woes. But if he ends up getting moved, 2024 Summer League MVP Jalen Wilson could make his way into the starting lineup.

Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (calf) isn't expected to suit up when Team USA begins their quest for a gold medal against Serbia. While Durant is anticipated to play at some point during the 2024 Summer Olympics, head coach Steve Kerr is taking things slow while the superstar recovers from a calf injury. Without question, his presence will be needed. However, fantasy managers are more eager to see if this will turn into something that will impact Durant's status to begin the 2024-25 campaign.

According to Ian Begley of SNY, the Knicks remain "in regular contact" with free-agent forward/center Precious Achiuwa. The 24-year-old began last season with Toronto but was moved to New York in the OG Anunoby trade. While he wasn't a consistent member of the rotation, he was a valuable depth piece for a team that battled injuries underneath the basket. With that said, there are clubs interested in acquiring him. However, if Achiuwa returns to New York, he'll likely come off the bench behind Mitchell Robinson. Yet, with Robinson's history of ailments over the years, Achiuwa may get chances with the first five.

Washington Wizards center Jonas Valanciunas agreed to a three-year, $30 million contract with the team this offseason. However, NBA insiders Brian Windhorst and Tim Bontemps have doubts about him playing out his contract in Washington. In fact, both believe he could be gone ahead of the 2024-25 trade deadline, with the Lakers being a team mentioned as a possible landing spot. At any rate, Valanciunas is coming off a down year, finishing with averages of 12.2 points and 8.8 rebounds. The Wizards selected Alexandre Sarr in the 2024 NBA Draft, so his development could be the deciding factor. If Valanciunas ends up in Los Angeles, he'll likely see plenty of minutes. In addition, Anthony Davis could finally slide back over to the four spot, potentially enhancing his shooting from behind the arc.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard agreed to a three-year, $59 million contract extension with Indiana. The 2022 No. 31 overall pick has appeared in 143 regular season games for the Pacers, averaging 9.3 points, 4.3 assists, and 2.4 rebounds while shooting 35.7% from deep. Unlike the last two seasons, he will likely remain in the starting lineup in 2024-25, making him an attractive fantasy asset for managers. With Tyrese Haliburton known for his constant ailments, Nembhard may be in store for his most productive year to date.
