What’s the buzz on Twitter?
Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBAI would be shocked if the Wolves aren’t having conversations about trading for Paul Millsap.
The Wolves run a unique, aggressive high-wall defensive scheme — the one the Nuggets started playing with Nikola Jokic a few years ago, when Millsap was their PF. He was their Vando. – 8:54 PM Anthony Puccio @APOOCH
Millsap out. Nets/NBA talk. Ask me anything twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1… – 8:44 PM Paul Millsap @Paulmillsap4
Motivation. Thank you 🙏🏾 – 8:19 PM Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis
The most obvious use for the roster spot that would be vacated by Paul Millsap – whenever that happens – is bumping up rookie Kessler Edwards from a two-way to a full roster spot. That would make the budding 3-and-D wing eligible for the playoffs. #Nets – 8:09 PM Shams Charania @ShamsCharania
Forward Paul Millsap and the Brooklyn Nets have agreed to find the four-time All-Star a new team where he can have a greater contribution, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. – 7:50 PM Paul Garcia @PaulGarciaNBA

Nets will be without Durant, Harris, and Millsap.
Claxton and Bembry are questionable to play. – 5:57 PM Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis
Steve Nash said the #Nets might not see Paul Millsap (personal reasons) at all on this road trip. Adds Nic Claxton is day to day. #nba – 11:01 AM Neil Dalal @NeilDalal96
