Donta Hall is receiving NBA interest after helping AS Monaco reach the Euroleague Final Four this season, sources tell Marc Stein of Substack.
The Memphis Grizzlies and Portland Trail Blazers are among the interested teams.
Hall has played in the NBA with the Toronto Raptors, Detroit Pistons, Brooklyn Nets and Orlando Magic after going undrafted in 2019 out of Alabama.
Hall joined Monaco in 2021.
Eric Gordon is expected to receive interest in free agency from the Los Angeles Lakers, Memphis Grizzlies, Minnesota Timberwolves, Phoenix Suns, Milwaukee Bucks and Portland Trail Blazers, sources tell Kelly Iko of The Athletic.
Gordon was due $21 million for the 23-24 season, but the Los Angeles Clippers waived him ahead of his guarantee date. The Clippers traded a first round pick for Gordon at the trade deadline.
The Memphis Grizzlies picked up Xavier Tillman Sr.'s team option worth $1.9 million for the 2023-24 season.
Tillman averaged 9.7 points and 6.7 rebounds in 29 regular season starts last year.
The Detroit Pistons plan on making an aggressive run at Cam Johnson in restricted free agency, according to James L. Edwards III of The Athletic, as well as Marc Stein of Substack.
The Nets would like Johnson to re-sign and have been reportedly weighing a four-year, $84 million offer. The Pistons could offer a four-year, $100 million deal.
Johnson is viewed as an ideal 3-and-D wing that would be a great complement to Cade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey.
Johnson is 27 and has averaged 56 games per season during his four-year career.
Johnson's former head coach, Monty Williams, is now also with the Pistons.
The Memphis Grizzlies had their eyes set on Draymond Green prior to acquiring Marcus Smart in a three-way deal with the Boston Celtics and Washington Wizards. Memphis is no longer expected to pursue Green after acquiring Smart.
The Grizzlies have a great deal of respect for Green after battling against him in the NBA Playoffs. Memphis is expected to move on from Dillon Brooks, who did a lot of trash talking with Green, this offseason.
Zach Kleiman of the Memphis Grizzlies spoke publicly for the first time since Ja Morant received a 25-game suspension. The suspension includes steps Morant must take in order to be reinstated.
"The thing to focus on at this point ... what's Ja going to commit to going forward?" Kleiman told reporters. "What are the steps that he's prepared to take for the NBA to grant the ability to rejoin the team after serving the suspension?
"I think there's a lot of healthy dialogue there. I think everyone did acknowledge early on that this was going to be ongoing and Ja wasn't just going to become the best version of himself overnight. I think there's many really serious steps that he needs to continue to take."
The Grizzlies previously gave Morant a lot of leeway, but that appears to have changed following these consecutive incidents.
"There's no strain in the relationship, but we have high expectations of the standard that Ja is going to have to hold himself to," Kleiman told reporters.
The San Antonio Spurs selected Victor Wembanyama with the first overall selection in the 2023 NBA Draft. The Charlotte Hornets selected Brandon Miller with the second pick, while the Portland Trail Blazers at No. 3.

The Memphis Grizzlies are exploring trade opportunities involving Tyus Jones, sources tell Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports.
With Ja Morant suspended for the first 25 games of the 23-24 season, Jones figured to again play a key role for the Grizzlies.
But Jones could land a full time starting point guard spot with another team.
Joes re-signed with the Grizzlies during the 2022 offseason on a two-year, $30 million deal. Jones had discussions with the San Antonio Spurs, but they no longer appear to be an option due to the presence of his brother Tre Jones.
The Los Angeles Clippers and Toronto Raptors could be options for Jones.
Ja Morant has received a 25-game suspension from the NBA and must meet conditions set by the league in order to be reinstated.
Morant was filmed on Instagram Live flashing a gun two weeks after the Memphis Grizzlies were eliminated from the playoffs, which followed his eight-game suspension in March for a similar incident.
"I have heard indirectly that Ja and people close to Ja, perhaps people formerly close to Ja, have this feeling that the NBA out to get them," said Tim MacMahon. "That the media is out to get them."
Morant also had other off-court incidents such as a confrontation with members of the Indiana Pacers that allegedly involved a laser pointer, as well as a fight with a teenager during a pickup game at his house.
Morant is beginning a five-year, $195 million contract extension with the Memphis Grizzlies this season.
