by Garrett Ball | Wed, Jul 1st 12:12pm EDT Quentin Grimes has agreed to a 4-year, $60 million deal with the Los Angeles Lakers. (Shams Charania on X) Fantasy Impact: Grimes took a step back in his second season with Philadelphia after his hot start with the team, but he’s proven enough to net himself a nice deal with LA. The Lakers are rebuilding their team, adding pieces like Walker Kessler and now Grimes, to go around Luka Doncic.

Kessler will sign a 4-year, $130 million deal with LA. (Shams Charania on X) Fantasy Impact: It’s a massive swing for the Lakers as they look to bring in a skilled and promising big man to put alongside Luka Doncic in their new LeBron James-less era.

by Garrett Ball | Wed, Jul 1st 10:54am EDT Mike Conley has agreed to a one-year deal with the Boston Celtics, where he will play his 20th NBA season. (Shams Charania on X) Fantasy Impact: Conley is a good locker room presence and a solid veteran, but it’s unlikely that he will see meaningful playing time outside of injury to those above him in the depth chart. He’s best viewed as veteran depth at this point for fantasy.
