Kawhi Leonard will be a restricted free agent in the offseason and will receive interest for contract offer sheets.

The Boston Celtics likely will pursue an offer sheet with Leonard.

Leonard is averaging 15.9 points and 7.3 rebounds this season.

The San Antonio Spurs are prepared to pursue Marc Gasol should Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili decide to retire after the season.

“It depends on what Tim and Manu and everyone there does,” one Western Conference executive told Sporting News. “But if they’re going, the Spurs are not going to step back and rebuild, no one thinks that. The understanding is Gasol would be their top target.”

Gasol has indicated that he'd like to re-sign with the Memphis Grizzlies.

According to sources, Gasol would likely only leave the Grizzlies for a team that gives him a better shot at a championship.

“They tend to fly under the radar on this kind of thing, then pop up and make the George Hill trade or almost get Jason Kidd,” one general manager said. “With their situation, you’d expect that to be the case again. If it is not Gasol, it will be a trade for a draft pick, something on draft night, it will be someone you’re not expecting. It’s not an organization that has gotten where it is without being prepared.”

Tim Duncan suffered a hyperextended left elbow late in the San Antonio Spurs' win over the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday.

Duncan has worn a wrap on the elbow for much of this season.

The Spurs don't believe the injury is serious.

“They told us right away it was nothing big,” said Tony Parker.

Said coach Gregg Popovich, “He hyperextended his elbow. I think he will be OK. I think, but I don’t know. We’ll see. I think he’s OK.”

The Golden State Warriors, Dallas Mavericks, Toronto Raptors, San Antonio Spurs, Miami Heat and Chicago Bulls have registered interest in JaVale McGee.

McGee and the Boston Celtics were unable to close a deal on a contract on Thursday.

McGee is a talented two-way center that has struggled staying healthy and with maturity issues.

Gregg Popovich is a strong opponent of the idea of the NBA Playoffs finishing in July. 

Adam Silver is considering ways of increasing the amount of rest between games, which could include finishing the Finals in July.

“I think the season’s long enough,” Popovich said Wednesday. “I will not come to work in July. If there’s a game in July, count me out.

“Count me out,” Pop said. “Life’s too short.”

Tony Parker plans on playing for Team France this summer at Eurobasket 2015 to help them qualify for the Rio Olympic Games in 2016.

“I am not thinking about that for now since I’m focused on the Spurs, and making a good season to finish in style. Then I will focus on the Blues. But I have said… I will be with team France this summer, ” said Parker.

Parker took last summer off after winning the 2014 NBA Finals with the Spurs.

Parker has only played 45 games this season and hasn't been as effective.

The Philadelphia 76ers have agreed to waive JaVale McGee in time for him to sign with a playoff team.

McGee did not have to give any money back for the opportunity to play in meaningful games this season. McGee is owed $12 million for next season.

The 76ers acquired a future first round pick from the Denver Nuggets while taking on McGee and his contract.

McGee played in six games for the 76ers.

The San Antonio Spurs, Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets and Miami Heat are mentioned as possible destinations for McGee.
