On May 10, the NBA playoffs are in full swing, and a crazy night off the court was in. Edwards, who was stepped on his ankle in the last game, was not seriously injured and did not appear on the injury list; Harden held the player option this summer, and he might choose to jump out of the contract and then sign a contract again; the Rockets reported the latest plan, which may not implement VanVleet's team option and then sign a contract with a lower salary.

Timberwolves updated the G3 injury report, and Edwards did not appear in the injury trouble, which also means that his injury is not hindered.

In the second quarter of G2, after Edwards broke through and landed, his left ankle was heavily stepped on by TJD, and then he fell to the ground in pain. After a simple adjustment, he returned to the locker room. Fortunately, after a brief treatment, Edwards returned to the court in the second half and performed well, leading the team to successfully win the game.

With the Timberwolves' injury report not having his name, it also means that the injury is not hindered and they can play in the next game, which also makes them feel relieved. This round of series also suffered consecutive injuries. G1 Curry suffered a strain from a left hamstring and would be missing for at least one week, which also put the Warriors in a passive situation. Fortunately, Edwards' side is not in a way, which means that the Timberwolves will continue to take the initiative on the field, and it depends on whether they can regain their home advantage.

Harden disappeared after the Clippers were eliminated, and there was no news, but a Clippers reporter revealed that he might give up his player option this summer. Harden has a $36.35 million player option this summer, and is likely to choose to jump out and sign a new contract with the Clippers. Judging from the current signs, Harden has no idea of ​​leaving. After all, he plays well in his hometown, and the atmosphere of this team is also very good.

Finally, let's take a look at the Rockets' new plan. They hold VanVleet's $44.9 million team option this summer. I thought they would execute the one that kept him on the team, but now the situation has changed. According to famous reporter Stein, the Rockets may choose not to implement the team's option and instead sign a long-term contract with Van Vreett with a lower average annual salary, which will make the team's salary space more flexible. Of course, once some big transactions are involved, it is possible to execute them and send them away.
