The NBA offseason continues, and many teams have exposed new reinforcement goals, including the Lakers and the Warriors. Interestingly, the Bucks are interested in getting Kumingga, who is cold in the free market, but they are rejected by the Warriors. In addition, Jokic has a final answer to whether to renew his contract during the offseason. Let's take a look at the specific situation together. NBA: Lakers set their goals, the Bucks' offer was rejected, and Jokic will not renew his contract during the off-season. The

The Bucks are also one of the teams with more adjustments during the offseason. In order to retain Antetokounmpo, they have made multiple operations in succession. Earlier, they were rejected in seeking a deal about Kumingga. Forbes reporter Evan Sidery reported. The Bucks have explored the plan to get Kuminga by signing first and then changing. But the Warriors are not very interested in Kuzma, so the Bucks need to send out their first round pick in 2031 and a potential star to attract the Warriors' interest. At present, it seems that Kumingga's market trading is in a stagnation. Slater said Kumingga is expected to return to the Warriors and trade again in December.

This makes it unlikely that the Warriors will have a big operation. Maybe some rotation players will be given a minor repair. Earlier, two players were mentioned again, and they will be the Warriors' reinforcement target. According to famous reporters Marc Stein and Jake Fischer, the Warriors have become a strong contender for free agent Anthony Melton's next home. The Warriors have become a strong contender for free agent Melton. Melton played for the Warriors last season, but was reimbursed for the season after only 6 games, averaging 10.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game. In addition, the Warriors also showed a strong interest in signing Horford. According to the news, Horford will choose between the Warriors and the Nuggets.

The Lakers are also seeking further adjustments after the operation. There was news that they were discussing a deal with the Heat about Wiggins, but no further news came out in the future. Earlier they had new goals. According to ClutchPoints Lakers' reporter Anthony F. Irwin, sources revealed that the Lakers expressed interest in Seble, Dosum and Smart. The Lakers have had preliminary contacts with several teams to discuss the availability and trading prices of players such as Seble, Smart (although most teams are still watching whether he will buy out the contract), Dosum and other players, but no formal offer has been made yet.

The attendance rates of these players who are more than one are not ideal. Is it still unknown whether it can be helpful to the team as imagined? Let's wait and see whether the Lakers can reach a deal or further supplements in the future. After all, if the Lakers' current lineup strength wants to go further in the new season, they still lack defensive players.

Nuggets have made a series of adjustments to further improve the team's strength. The key point currently focuses on whether Valan will stay in the Nuggets. If they don't stay in the Nuggets, they might be chasing Horford to supplement the lineup. Whether Valan is leaving or staying, it is reported that Jokic is very satisfied with the operation of the Nuggets management. He is eligible for early renewal during the offseason.

According to US journalist Bennett Durando, Nikola Jokic has informed the Denver Nuggets that he will not sign a contract renewal this offseason. If Jokic waits for another contract renewal in the 2026 offseason, he will be eligible for another $292 million in renewal. An additional contract total is expected to be obtained by approximately $80 million, so the delay in renewal is due to financial strategic considerations. Jokic averaged 29.6 points, 12.7 rebounds and 10.2 assists per game this season. In the new season, he will still be one of the top inside players in the league. After the Nuggets' lineup is adjusted, he will also have stronger competitiveness in the new season.

Currently, only the Warriors teams in the league have not completed the supplementary lineup. We look forward to their next operations and the exciting performances of each team in the new season.
