Garrison Mathews Rumors

Having the right veterans around has helped, too. Mathews and Larry Nance Jr. have made big recent contributions after hardly playing for long stretches, while Nance in particular has been cited by team sources as a plus behind the scenes. “My career has been up and down, so I’m used to it,” Mathews said. “Being ready is important because, at some point, you’re gonna get minutes. It’s just what you do with it.”

According to Moshe Barda, an interesting move from the NBA to the EuroLeague could be on the radar. Maccabi Tel Aviv, in fact, appears to be interested in bringing to Europe the 8-year NBA player Frank Kaminsky, who has never played overseas before. The 30-year-old center with Polish and Serbian ancestry started the 2022-23 season with the Hawks, being traded to the Houston Rockets as part of the deal that sent Bruno Fernando and Garrison Mathews to Atlanta. In the latest NBA season, he put up 2.5 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 0.9 assists per game.
