Speaking precisely of Jarrett Allen, insider Marc Stein also reports that his future in Ohio could be dotted. Especially if Evan Mobley, his partner in the racket, and Donovan Mitchell are retained by the Cavaliers. What the latest rumors suggest.

Highly appreciated by several leaders in the league, the 26-year-old pivot could in any case be pushed towards the exit by his team, who would not incidentally have not appreciated the way he handled his rib injury in the playoffs, refusing an injection to be able to play directly again.

A year ago, the Pelicans targeted Jarrett Allen and, with Brandon Ingram announced to be leaving, the two teams could, for example, agree on a transfer of the interior and the winger. To be continued…
