NBA news roundup: Bucks add Alexander, Kings target McGee, Giannis hints at OKC move

As the NBA season is about to start, teams are making some moves to finalize their rosters. Here are some of the latest news from the league, according to FW, a US media outlet.

- The Milwaukee Bucks have signed guard Ty-Shon Alexander to a two-way contract. Alexander, 21, was the 29th pick in the 2022 draft by the Houston Rockets. He was traded to the Atlanta Hawks and then to the Oklahoma City Thunder in the offseason, before being waived by the Thunder. He played 31 games for the Rockets last season, averaging 4.7 points, 1.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 0.5 steals in 14 minutes per game.
- The Dallas Mavericks have officially waived center JaVale McGee, who will clear waivers and become a free agent. Yahoo's Haynes reported that the Sacramento Kings are interested in claiming McGee, who has a history with the Warriors. McGee, 33, won three championships with Golden State and played for the Lakers and Nuggets last season.https://www.adidadsboostshop.com/category/nike
- Giannis Antetokounmpo, the reigning MVP and champion, said in an interview with The New York Times that he would not have signed an extension with the Bucks if they were not competing for a title. Stein revealed that the Lakers and Knicks are among the teams that would be interested in Antetokounmpo if he decides to leave Milwaukee.

However, an anonymous Western Conference executive had a different opinion. He said that Antetokounmpo does not care about big markets and that Oklahoma City would be a suitable destination for him. The reason is that the Thunder have young players and nine first-round picks in the next three years.
