The Los Angeles Lakers would have "serious interest" in trading for Trae Young should the Atlanta Hawks decide to make a move, sources told Eric Pincus of Bleacher Report.

Sources around the league believe that the Hawks will deal Young this summer, according to Pincus.

The Lakers would have to wait until July to make a deal due to a hard cap at the first apron that expires at the end of June. 

With the Spurs also registering interest, the Pistons are seen as a "wild card" to trade for Young.

The Brooklyn Nets will hire Jordi Fernandez as head coach.

Fernandez is currently the top assistant coach of the Sacramento Kings under Mike Brown. Before joining the Kings, Fernandez spent several seasons under Michael Malone with the Denver Nuggets. Fernandez was also a head coach in the G League with the Canton Charge and also currently serves as head coach of Canada.

The Nets parted ways with Jacque Vaughn as head coach in February and had Kevin Ollie as interim for the remainder of the season.

The Detroit Pistons are believed to have interest in hiring Jon Horst as president of basketball operations. 

Horst won Executive of the Year in 2021 when the Milwaukee Bucks won the championship following their trade for Jrue Holiday.

Horst is a Michigan native and his first NBA job was with the Pistons.

Troy Weaver will remain with the Detroit Pistons as general manager despite the franchise's decision to hire a president of basketball operations above him.

Weaver was hired by the Pistons in 2020 after a lengthy tenure with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Pistons have not won more than 23 games during his tenure, winning 20 in 20-21, 23 in 21-22, 17 in 22-23 and 14 in 23-24.

Team USA is finalizing its roster for the 2024 Paris Olympics with 11 players while keeping one spot open for later in the summer.

• Jayson Tatum
• Jrue Holiday
• Tyrese Haliburton

James is playing in his fourth Olympics, a career that includes a bronze medal in 2004 and gold medals in 2008 and 2012.

Curry will be playing in his first Olympics.

The Detroit Pistons have decided to hire a new head of basketball operations following their 14-68 season.

Troy Weaver has run the Pistons' front office since June 2020.

Detroit hired Monty Williams as head coach last offseason and he's expected to be retained in the job.

Jalen Brunson and Nikola Jokic have been named the NBA's Players of the Week for Week 25.
