Sources say San Antonio is looking to add a forward with its $15 million full midlevel exception and has its eyes on Toronto’s Sandro Mamukelashvili and Detroit’s Tobias Harris in addition to Cleveland’s Dean Wade, the Lakers’ Rui Hachimura and the Clippers’ John Collins.
Sources say Mamukelashvili is likely to generate multiple offers north of \(10 million in average annual value after declining a paltry player option in Toronto worth less than \)3 million. And we’re told that the Lakers, who have obviously been connected to various big men, have emerged as a notable Mamu suitor.
Bonus Raptors coverage: Sources say Toronto is expected to convert two-way guard Alijah Martin to a standard contract.
As for Wade: He has a lot of interest around the league but a particular fan in new Sixers president of basketball operations Mike Gansey, who helped bring Wade to Cleveland as an undrafted free agent. Sources say, to be clear, that there is still a chance Wade stays with the Cavaliers.
