Nets GM watch Yang Hansen tryout! Nuggets interim coach turns regular, East Decision referee report is released

9:32am, 23 May 2025Basketball

On May 23, the league announced the best defensive lineup today, with Amen Thompson, Dort, Mobley, Daniels and Zhumeng on the first defense, and Kamara, Gobert, Jaren Jackson, Jewway and Zubac. Anunobi and Antetokounmpo can be said to be the biggest beads of this selection. In addition, there are also many news worth paying attention to in the league today, such as Nets GM went to watch the Henson trial. Let’s take a look at today’s hot news.

Nets GM watch Yang Hansen's trial training

Nets media Nets Daily reported that the Nets are one of the few teams that went to China to observe Yang Hansen in the CBA. It is reported that Nets general manager Max went to Los Angeles yesterday to watch Yang Hansen's trial training at the Lakers Training Hall. Previously, some media predicted that the Nets might choose Yang Hansen. After all, this is Boss Cai's team. He chose Xiao Cui last year. The Nets have 5 draft picks this year, namely the No. 8, No. 19, No. 26, No. 27 and No. 36.

Although Hesson was considered very slow by scouts during the physical test, in the 5-on-5 game, the scouts changed their thinking, and their speed could not affect his performance on both offense and defense. Like Jokic, only real games can show his value. According to domestic media, Fu Paul now supervises Hesson himself. As one of the best agents in the league, it is estimated that Fu Paul can also give Hesson more exposure and opportunities through his relationship.

Hersen is unlikely to become the top 20 pick, but the Nets can use the No. 26 pick or the other two picks to win him. Previously, the US media NBA Draft Room updated the 2025 mock draft. Yang Hansen will be selected by the Hawks at the 22nd pick. To be honest, I think this is possible, but the possibility is not great. Don’t have too high expectations for Hansen’s pick, nor do you praise him. As for his practical ability, it’s not a big problem for him to be selected and stay in the NBA.

Nuggets interim coach turned regular

According to famous reporter Shams today, several sources revealed that the Nuggets will reach an agreement with interim coach Adelman Jr., who will become the team's new head coach. The Nuggets were impressed by Adelman Jr.'s performance during his time as the team's interim head coach and quickly decided to turn him into a regular position. As for the Nuggets' new general manager, the team has no idea yet. Many fans have guessed that Adelman Jr. was converted to a regular basis.

At the press conference after the end of the season, Aaron Gordon and Jokic both supported Adelman to continue as head coach. The two core members of the team said so, and there is no need for the Nuggets to send him away. After all, he can satisfy the players. The culture of the locker room in the NBA may be more important than coaching ability. This is also the reason why Lao Li has always been able to work. Even if Adelman is not coaching, he can still be a puppet coach. After all, Jokic can command tactics, and Westbrook can do it. The referee report for the Eastern Conference Finals was released. The Eastern Conference Finals set a record for the Eastern Conference Finals since 2018. The reason is that this game is so good. When he was once 17 points behind in the fourth quarter, Nesmith scored 20 points in the last quarter, Halliburton scored a tie and entered overtime. Then the Pacers reversed the opponent in overtime. The game was too intense and the final moment, so the league also issued a referee report:

The last 1 minute and 57 seconds of the overtime game, Towns put his hand on the latter's shoulder when defending Nesmith, which affected Nesmith's shooting. It was time to be called Towns fouled and the last 15.6 seconds of overtime. Bridges hit the opponent's arm when Toddled dunk. Toddd should have received extra penalty, but it was not blown. In addition, Nesmith was fouled by Anunobi in the last 13 seconds of the fourth quarter, and he did not step on the sideline at the time, so there was no problem with the penalty.

Cavaliers free agent rumors

Today, Chris, a reporter from the Cleveland Honesty People, talked about some rumors about the Cavaliers during the offseason. He said that sources revealed that the Nuggets are interested in getting Jerome. Jerome's contract expired in the offseason. He averaged 12.5 points, 2.5 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.1 steals per game this season, with a three-point shooting percentage of 43.9%, and averaging 1.6 three-pointers. The Nuggets have always hoped to get a top substitute to increase the thickness of the lineup. Jerome is obviously a good choice. He has both the ability to do the ball and do not have the ball, and can also play with Jokic.

And Merrill, another player with an expiration of contract, will become a free agent this summer. Sources revealed that Merrill may seek a multi-year contract with an annual salary of 6 million to 8 million, averaging 7.2 points per game this season and a 37% three-point shooting percentage. To be honest, he will be a bit expensive for this price. The Cavaliers can play top offense and defense this season, and their substitutes are also key. If these two leave the team, the Cavaliers' offensive firepower will probably decline next season, and there is also a lot of work to do for the Cavaliers in the offseason.
