Masai Ujiri - C - Nuggets

Sources told Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports that the Nuggets have granted the Raptors permission to speak with GM Masai Ujiri, and unless Denver extends Ujiri at what Toronto is willing to pay, Ujiri is likely to head to the Raptors.

Per Wojnarowski, the Raptors are willing to pay Ujiri around $3 million annually, an offer the Nuggets are unlikely to match. Ujiri spent time in the Toronto organization before accepting the Denver GM position, and it's unclear who would replace him for the Nuggets if he departed for a chance to rebuild the Raptors.

Dwane Casey - C - Raptors

The Raptors are pursuing Pacers GM Kevin Pritchard to "head up" their basketball operations, sources told CBS Sports.

Rumored to have an eye on Phil Jackson originally, the Raptors then reportedly set their sights on Denver GM Masai Ujiri, and now have moved on again, this time to Pritchard. According to Berger, OKC assistant GM Troy Weaver is also on Toronto's radar.

Mario Chalmers - G - Heat

Mario Chalmers (shoulder) went through shootaround on Friday and is expected to play in Game 2 vs. Indiana.

Chalmers said Thursday that he expected to play, so this is merely confirmation that he should be in his usual place in the starting lineup.

Gordon Hayward - G/F - Jazz

Gordon Hayward will be invited to Team USA's mini-camp in the offseason.

Greivis Vasquez - G - Pelicans

Greivis Vasquez will have surgery on both ankles on Friday to "remove loose particles from both ankles," a league source told the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

Initial reports from Venezuela stated Vasquez would have a procedure done on both ankles and now it's been confirmed. Vasquez dealt with ankle issues during the regular season, so the procedure is designed to alleviate that issue. It is "similar" to what Eric Gordon had done earlier in the month to remove bone spurs from his left ankle.

Tyreke Evans - G/F - Kings

Tyreke Evans admitted that he benefitted from playing both shooting guard and small forward for Keith Smart last season.

"Hopefully, if he does stay, we can get this thing on the road and get a playoff run," Evans said. "If not, he was a good coach to me while he was here. We'll see what happens." It's a lukewarm endorsement, but the admission that one of Smart's move actually benefited Evans is noteworthy.

Isaiah Thomas - G - Kings

Isaiah Thomas and Keith Smart are talking at least once per week discussing basketball.

This is noteworthy because IT2 wasn't shy about ripping Smart at times during the regular season. "He's a great guy, a motivator, a guy that's going to do whatever it takes to win," Thomas said. "Just like us players, we've got to improve each and every year, and he knows he's got to improve. … I'm going to tell them he's a great coach, a great guy that really motivates you to become the best person you can be." That's a pretty strong endorsement from Thomas, but it might not be enough to save Smart.

Keith Smart - C - Kings

Vivek Ranadive said he intends to resolve the front office and coaching situations "very quickly" after the sale officially closes.

Ranadive wants to meet with current coach Keith Smart, but it's been reported that Smart is expected to be shown the door. GM Geoff Petrie's contract expires at the end of June, and that is not expected to be renewed. The Kings could have a totally different look entering next season.
