The Buffalo Sabres made a move Monday, locking up checking-line forward Beck Malenstyn before free agency even opens its doors. Buffalo signed him to a six-year deal worth seventeen point five million dollars, a signal that this organization is serious about building depth and keeping their culture intact heading into next season.
Shifting to the NBA, and this one is loud — the Golden State Warriors are reportedly prepared to pursue a blockbuster reunion of LeBron James and Anthony Davis. League sources tell ESPN that Draymond Green has declined his player option specifically to create the financial flexibility needed to make this happen. LeBron and AD, back together, this time in Golden State. The league is watching.
And over in Denver, the Nuggets were hoping to land Jaylen Brown as a running mate for Nikola Jokic, but that pursuit is hitting a wall fast. Boston's demands in trade negotiations have effectively poured cold water on any deal, leaving Denver back at the drawing board as they try to build around the best player on the planet.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
