By the Hoops Nightly Desk · 2 h ago

The season has not tipped off, so Thursday's news comes entirely off the transaction wire. The Knicks were the busiest team, cycling through camp bodies and adding Bruce Brown from the Nuggets, while the Suns, Kings and Timberwolves also moved players. No games were played or scheduled, and the injury report carried no changes.
