By the Hoops Nightly Desk · 2 h ago

There were no games Wednesday night and none on tap Thursday. Kevin Durant and Domantas Sabonis both came off the injury report, and a wave of training-camp signings hit rosters around the league. Shams Charania reports that extension talks between the Knicks and Karl-Anthony Towns have stagnated.

The injury wire

Two clearances headline the injury wire. Kevin Durant is off the Rockets' report; he had been listed day-to-day. Domantas Sabonis is off the Kings' report as well, also previously day-to-day. No other status changes are on record.

Moves and reports

Camp rosters filled out across the league: the Hawks signed Keon Johnson, the Celtics added Hayden Gray and Gabe McGlothan, the Nets signed Dain Dainja and Ben Humrichous, and the Cavaliers added Kadary Richmond, Zack Austin, Rashaun Agee and Curtis Jones. The Timberwolves signed Nate Santos and Payton Sandfort, the Magic added four players including Ace Baldwin and Ricky Council IV, and the Trail Blazers signed Barry Dunning and Mark Sears while cutting Samson Johnson and Mark Armstrong. The Jazz added Ibrahima Diallo. The Spurs lost Jayden Nunn and the Nuggets lost Boopie Miller. On the report side, Shams Charania says Knicks-Towns extension talks have stagnated (90% confidence), Anthony Slater says there is no extension decision yet for Stephen Curry (50%), and Joe Vardon has the latest on the NBA's probe into the Bucks' deal with Gary Trent Jr. (49%).
