NBA news update: Jordan's Kobe lookalike, McGee waived by Mavs, Giannis to Lakers?

As the NBA season is about to tip off, teams are making some moves to finalize their rosters. Here are some of the latest news from the league, according to FW, a US media outlet.

- Jordan's national team may have lost their first two games in the FIBA World Cup and failed to advance to the next round, but they have a player who has caught the attention of the fans. He is Hollis Jefferson, a guard who looks and plays like Kobe Bryant. Jefferson scored 24 points in his first game and 39 points in his second game, setting the record for the highest single-game scoring in this year's World Cup. He also averaged 9 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game. Jordan's last group game will be against Team USA, which is expected to win easily, but Jefferson's performance against them will be worth watching.
- The Dallas Mavericks have officially decided to waive veteran center JaVale McGee, who will become a free agent after clearing waivers. Yahoo's Haynes reported that the Sacramento Kings are interested in claiming McGee, who has a history with the Warriors. McGee, 33, won three championships with Golden State and played for the Lakers and Nuggets last season.https://www.adidadszxfluxzone.com/category/adidas
- Giannis Antetokounmpo, the reigning MVP and champion, said in an interview with The New York Times that he would not have signed an extension with the Bucks if they were not competing for a title. Stein revealed that the Lakers and Knicks are among the teams that would be interested in Antetokounmpo if he decides to leave Milwaukee.https://www.adidadszxfluxzone.com/category/air-jordan

However, an anonymous Western Conference executive had a different opinion. He said that Antetokounmpo does not care about big markets and that Oklahoma City would be a suitable destination for him. The reason is that the Thunder have young players and nine first-round picks in the next three years.
