Malcolm Brogdon on the Warriors, Knicks and Timberwolves radars
In Brogdon's case, Golden State's long-running stalemate with restricted free agent Jonathan Kuminga has contributed to the uncomfortable wait. We won't know if the Warriors emerge with more serious interest in Brogdon until the state of their roster and luxury tax bill becomes clear in the wake of a resolution to Kuminga's fate and the subsequent signings that have been long anticipated to bring Al Horford, De'Anthony Melton, Gary Payton II and second-round pick Will Richard into the Bay Area fold.
I'm told Brogdon has also been on the radar for both the Knicks and the Timberwolves, which (as noted above) are two of the teams that have been monitoring Beasley's status. Word is that the Wolves are also actively trying to work through the financial details involved in re-signing Bones Hyland.
Warriors interested in Seth Curry, Malcolm Brogdon, Cody Martin
We've reported previously that Seth Curry and Malcolm Brogdon are candidates for a Warriors roster spot after Kuminga's situation is resolved and the above three signings are completed. Another name on the Warriors' list of bench targets, sources say, is Cody Martin.
Wolves expect to sign Bones Hyland to final roster spot
The Wolves have looked into several candidates for the spot, including Malcolm Brogdon, Cam Payne and Landry Shamet, league sources told The Athletic. However, all indications are that Bones Hyland is the front-runner to get that final spot, league sources said.

Jake Fischer: For Malcolm Brogdon—I don’t think Milwaukee is still a landing spot for him, especially after they brought in Cole Anthony on a buyout from Memphis. But teams like: Sacramento New Orleans Minnesota Golden State ...still have plenty of interest in Brogdon.
Shams Charania: Portland traded Damian Lillard for Jrue Holiday, Toumani Camara, and assets in 2023 -- then Holiday to Boston for Robert Williams III, Malcolm Brogdon and assets. Now, the Blazers have both Lillard and Holiday, plus Williams, Camara, a 2029 first-rounder and two Bucks swaps.
Wizards open to discussing sign-and-trade deals for Malcolm Brogdon
League sources say that the Wizards are open to sign-and-trade discussions to facilitate Malcolm Brogdon's exit from Washington and a slew of teams have registered varying levels of interest in the 32-year-old. That list includes the Clippers, Suns and Lakers as well as the Warriors, Timberwolves, Pelicans, Kings and Bucks.
Michael Scotto: If Bradley Beal agrees to a Suns buyout, Clippers may have interest but only have $5.3M of the non-tax MLE to use. Malcolm Brogdon and Chris Paul have also drawn free agency interest from LA. Clippers get John Collins on an expiring $26.58M deal as Norman Powell goes to the Heat
Kings to meet with Malcolm Brogdon?
Jake Fischer: The Kings are also planning to meet with Malcolm Brogdon, per sources, among their other point guard options. Doesn't have to be, but the Wizards are willing to help facilitate a sign-and-trade with Brogdon, sources say.

Kyrie Irving's acceptance of a three-year, $119 million contract -- taking a pay cut for this season after declining his $43 million player option -- allowed the Mavericks to maintain access to the $5.7 million taxpayer midlevel exception. The plan for that slot is to sign a lead guard who can start while Irving recovers from his torn left ACL and transition to a key reserve role upon the nine-time All-Star's return. Candidates include D'Angelo Russell, Malcolm Brogdon, Chris Paul and Tyus Jones, sources said. (The Mavs had interest in Dennis Schroder, but he is expected to command a significantly higher salary.)
