USC guard Isaiah Collier is the new number one overall pick in ESPN's updated mock 2024 NBA Draft. Collier tops a field made up of NCAA players, overseas players and G League Ignited prospects.

Through his first seven games with the Trojans, Collier has averaged 17.7 points and 4.3 assists. The 6-foot-5 point guard is shooting an impressive 53.9% from the field, including 42.1% on three-pointers.

Behind Collier, ESPN's top-five includes Alex Sarr of the Perth Wildcats in Australia, Zaccharie Risacher of JL Bourg in France, Ja'Kobe Walter of Baylor and Ron Holland of G League Ignite.

Trevelin Queen has been named the G League Player of the Week.

Queen averaged 32.3 points, 9.3 rebounds and 3.0 steals for the Osceola Magic.

Queen is on a Two-Way contract with the Orlando Magic.

The New York Knicks have waived Duane Washington Jr. from his Two-Way and have signed Jaylen Martin with the Two-Way slot.

Martin is out for up to two months with a thumb injury.

Martin was with the Knicks for Summer League and training camp.

New York Knicks guard Duane Washington Jr. will miss six-to-eight weeks due to a right thumb injury. Washington is on a two-way contract with the New York and Westchester Knicks of the G League.

Washington has yet to appear in an NBA game this season. In three G League games, Washington was averaging 27.3 points and 6.3 assists per game.

The Portland Trail Blazers and Rip City Remix are signing Jamaree Bouyea to a two-way contract. Bouyea is replacing Skylar Mays, who Portland is converting to a standard contract.

Bouyea spent last season with the Miami Heat and Washington Wizards in the NBA, as well as the Sioux Falls Skyforce in the G League. Bouyea was set to return to the Skyforce for this season, before being signed by the Trail Blazers.

Former NBA guard Jameer Nelson has been promoted to general manager of the Delaware Blue Coats. The Blue Coats are the Philadelphia 76ers G League affiliate.

Nelson has been steadily rising up the front office ranks for Philadelphia. He was previously Delaware's assistant general manager and a scout for the Sixers.

Nelson played in the NBA for 14 seasons. He spent the first 10 years of his career with the Orlando Magic. Over his final four seasons, through the 2017-18 season, Nelson played for the Dallas Mavericks, Boston Celtics, Denver Nuggets, New Orleans Pelicans and Detroit Pistons.

E.J. Liddell has been assigned by the New Orleans Pelicans to the Birmingham Squadron.

Liddell, 6-6, 242, who was selected by New Orleans with the 41st overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft out of The Ohio State University, missed the entire 2022-23 campaign due to a torn ACL in his right knee. Liddell has appeared in three games for the Pelicans this season and is averaging 1.3 points and 0.7 rebounds in 2.9 minutes per game.

The Detroit Pistons have agreed to sign Kevin Knox to a one-year deal.

Knox split last season with the Pistons and Portland Trail Blazers. Knox was waived by the Blazers before the start of the regular season.
