Time out-NO FLOP ZONE: Big names are on the move
TweetTHE NBL off-season is heating up as we head toward free agency this week and on our Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE podcast, Joey Wright and I explore some potential landing spots for our major names. There are also a number of off-court moves shaping the 2025-26 season.
From Melbourne United's Jack White checking overseas interest, to Kendric Davis no longer headed to Adelaide, the roster shakeups are already making headlines.
Joey reveals why Montrezl Harrell won’t return, where Keanu Pinder might land, and who’s left on the import free agent list.
We also discuss:
* Gary Clark’s interest in returning to Illawarra;
* Melbourne’s surprisingly short roster for next season;
* Xavier Cooks’ public apology – what’s next for him?
* Nathan Sobey’s re-signing with South East Melbourne Phoenix;
* New Zealand’s ownership going old school;
Viewer Questions include:
* Should Finals MVP voting be revamped?
* What type of import should Perth target post-Bryce Cotton?
* Would Joey join SuperCoach or fantasy league next season?
* Can Cairns ever legitimately challenge for a championship?
* Do fans really know how much time players and coaches sacrifice?
* What happens when a bench player outshines a starter?
* Which opposition player gave Joey the most trouble on the court;
* How does Joey recruit new players during the offseason?
* Is it hard to cut a veteran whose time has come?
* Can either of us watch basketball or journalism movies without picking them apart?
* Josh Giddey’s extraordinary half-court game winner over the Lakers.
