Davis opened training camp on the active/non-football injury list due to an undisclosed issue, but he's since recovered and is now cleared to participate in practices and play in preseason games.

Packers' Jordan Love: Inks extension
4h agoLove and the Packers have agreed to terms on a four-year extension worth $220 million, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

It also includes a record $75 million signing bonus, plus $155 million in new full guarantees, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. The team's star signal-caller has been at training camp but sitting out of practice until a deal was finalized. He will now presumably return to the field and continue building a rapport with his young and increasingly deep wide receiver unit.

Logan O'Hoppe LAA C
Angels' Logan O'Hoppe: Knocks three hits
9m agoO'Hoppe went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Athletics.
O'Hoppe continues to put bat to ball well in July -- he's batting .308 (20-for-65) this month, though he's posted just three extra-base hits and five RBI over 18 contests. The catcher is up to a .282/.336/.465 slash line with 14 home runs, 43 RBI, 46 runs scored, 13 doubles and two stolen bases through 89 contests. While he's struck out at a 25.0 percent rate in 2024, O'Hoppe has done plenty of other things right in his first full major-league campaign.
-
Luis Rengifo LAA 3B
Angels' Luis Rengifo: Nabs steal Friday
17m agoRengifo went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Athletics.
Rengifo is 3-for-15 with four RBI and one steal on two attempts over four games since he returned from a wrist injury that cost him most of the month. The infielder still needs to work on his timing at the plate, but his bout of right wrist inflammation hasn't flared up again to the point of needing to miss more time, as he's started three straight games in the field. Rengifo has a .308/.352/.432 slash line with six home runs, 29 RBI, 37 runs scored and 23 steals over 73 contests this season.
-
Nolan Schanuel LAA 1B
Angels' Nolan Schanuel: Blasts 10th homer
20m agoSchanuel went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Athletics.
Schanuel is 8-for-23 (.348) with two homers over eight games since the All-Star break. The Angels have started to hit him lower in the lineup -- he's batted fifth or lower in three of the last four games after routinely having the first baseman in the top third of the order earlier in the season. He's at a middling .246/.333/.367 slash line with 10 homers, 36 RBI, 37 runs scored, 11 doubles and four stolen bases over 96 contests.
-
Taylor Ward LAA LF
Angels' Taylor Ward: Slugs 15th homer
23m agoWard went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Athletics.
The outfielder finally put a power drought to rest -- he hadn't homered over his last 24 games, hitting just .169 with four doubles and four RBI in that span. Ward's blast was his 15th homer of the season, and he's added 47 RBI, 46 runs scored, three stolen bases and 18 doubles while slashing .226/.309/.396 over 101 contests. His average has taken a bit of a dip, but the rest of his numbers are mostly in line with what he produced over 97 games in 2023.
-
Carson Fulmer LAA RP
Angels' Carson Fulmer: Gives up three runs
26m agoFulmer allowed three runs on two hits and three walks while striking out three over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Friday.
This was Fulmer's longest outing of the year as he continues to build up his workload following a transition to the rotation after beginning 2024 in the bullpen. As a starter, he's allowed six runs on seven hits and six walks over 15 innings across his three starts, and he's struck out 13 in those outings. He's at a 3.77 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 55:28 K:BB through 57.1 innings this season. Fulmer last regularly started in 2018 and hasn't exceeded 100 innings since that same year, so it's unclear how much mileage he'll have in a starting role. He's projected to make his next start at home versus the Rockies.
-
Brent Rooker OAK LF
Athletics' Brent Rooker: Keeps power surge rolling
32m agoRooker went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 5-4 win over the Angels.
Rooker has been locked in at the plate in July, going 28-for-72 (.389) with 10 homers and 25 RBI over 20 contests this month. He took Angels reliever Hans Crouse deep in the sixth inning to tie Friday's game at 4-4. Rooker's power surge has him up to 25 homers on the year, and he's added a fantastic .288/.365/.583 slash line, 72 RBI, 50 runs scored and six stolen bases over 91 contests this season.
-
Trey Jemison MEM C
Pelicans' Trey Jemison: Headed to New Orleans
8h agoThe Pelicans claimed Jemison off waivers Friday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
Jemison was waived by the Grizzlies earlier this week but will now have the opportunity to compete for minutes in the Pelicans' frontcourt rotation. In 2023-24, Jemison averaged 6.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 1.1 assists in 23.0 minutes across 25 regular-season appearances.

Hawks' David Roddy: Headed to Atlanta
8h agoThe Suns are trading Roddy to the Hawks in exchange for E.J. Liddell on Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Roddy made 65 combined regular-season appearances for the Grizzlies and Suns last year, averaging 6.5 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 18.1 minutes. Roddy will likely compete for a depth role in Atlanta's forward rotation.
-
E.J. Liddell ATL SF
Suns' E.J. Liddell: Traded to Phoenix
8h agoThe Hawks are trading Liddell to the Suns in exchange for David Roddy on Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
This is the second time Liddell has gotten traded in less than a month, as he was traded from New Orleans to Atlanta on June 26 as part of the deal that sent Dejounte Murray to the Pelicans. Liddell will compete for a depth frontcourt option for the Suns, but his chances of earning a meaningful role are very slim.
-
Dante Exum DAL SG
Mavericks' Dante Exum: Likely out Saturday
9h agoExum (finger) is expected to miss Saturday's game against Spain, Eurohoops.net reports.
Exum fractured part of his right index finger against France in an exhibition and will likely miss Australia's opening match of the Olympics on Saturday. He's also doubtful for Tuesday's matchup versus Canada. Exum has avoided surgery and is expected to suit up for Australia at some point, but even if he does play, he'll likely be limited.
-

Mavericks' Kessler Edwards: Headed to Dallas
10h agoThe Mavericks signed Edwards to a two-way contract Friday, Sam Amico of HoopsWire.com reports.
Edwards received a minimal role for Sacramento in 2023-24, averaging just 5.1 minutes across 54 regular-season appearances. In Dallas, Edwards is now set to split time between the Mavericks and their G League affiliate, the Texas Legends.

Spurs' David Duke: Inks deal with San Antonio
10h agoThe Spurs signed Duke (undisclosed) to a two-way contract Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Duke made four NBA appearances for San Antonio in 2023-24, averaging 6.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 12.8 minutes. This season, the 24-year-old guard is set to split time between the Spurs and their G League affiliate. While Duke did miss the Summer League due to an undisclosed injury, there is no indication that he will miss any of the 2024-25 campaign.

Blue Jackets' Patrik Laine: Cleared from Assistance Program
13h agoLaine (personal) was cleared by the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program on Friday, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.
Laine entered the program in late January after missing 17 games with a fractured clavicle. Laine only played in 18 regular-season games with the Blue Jackets in 2023-24, scoring six goals and adding three assists. He has requested a trade out of Columbus and should find a new home before the start of training camp.
-
Rafael Harvey-Pinard MON LW
Canadiens' Rafael Harvey-Pinard: Suffers broken leg
13h agoHarvey-Pinard suffered a broken leg that required surgery Thursday and will be sidelined for at least four months.
Harvey-Pinard will miss training camp and at least the first month of the season due to the injury. The 25-year-old was slated to see bottom-six minutes in 2024-25 before suffering the broken leg. He will likely be replaced on the fourth unit by Joshua Roy. Harvey-Pinard had 14 goals and 20 points in 34 games during the 2022-23 campaign, but he slumped last season, scoring only twice while adding eight assists in 45 regular-season appearances.
-
Thomas Bordeleau SJ C
Sharks' Thomas Bordeleau: Inks two-way deal
1d agoBordeleau signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Sharks on Thursday, per PuckPedia.
Bordeleau's contract matches his qualifying offer, so he'll come with a $874,125 cap hit if he plays in the NHL. The 22-year-old had six goals and 11 points in 27 contests with the Sharks in 2023-24. He also provided 11 goals and 25 points across 35 outings with AHL San Jose.
-
Oliver Wahlstrom NYI RW
Islanders' Oliver Wahlstrom: Signs one-year contract
1d agoWahlstrom penned a one-year contract with the Islanders on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Wahlstrom and the Islanders avoided arbitration, agreeing to the one-year deal. Wahlstrom has been a huge disappointment since he was drafted 11th overall in 2018. He managed to score just a pair of goals and six points in 32 regular-season games in 2023-24, as he was a healthy scratch in 24 consecutive games, before seeing action in the regular-season finale versus Pittsburgh. Wahlstrom is expected to see bottom-six minutes in 2024-25, which will hamper his fantasy value.
-
Travis Konecny PHI C
Flyers' Travis Konecny: Signs eight-year extension
2d agoKonecny signed an eight-year, $70 million contract extension with the Flyers on Thursday.
The deal will begin in the 2025-26 season as Konecny has one more year at $5.5 million on the six-year deal he signed with the Flyers in September of 2019. Konecny had 33 goals and 68 points in 76 regular-season appearances last season -- both career highs. The 27-year-old will see first-line time, as well as first-unit power-play action in 2024-25, and could hit the 35-goal and 75-point mark, if he manages to remain healthy.
-
Josh Currie OTT C
Josh Currie: Bound for Germany
2d agoCurrie inked a one-year deal with DEL side Kolner Haie on Thursday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports.
