Yanic Konan Niederhäuser

Brandon Ingram, acquired by the Clippers in the Kawhi Leonard trade with Toronto, has a partially torn Achilles tendon and had heel surgery, agent Trent Redden told Law Murray of The Athletic. He will not be ready for the start of the regular season.

Knicks on SI's Max Wildstein suggests New York could dangle one of its distant future first-round picks, from 2030, 2032 or 2033, to pry second-year center Yanic Konan Niederhäuser away from the Clippers, who are dealing with the loss of five straight first-rounders as league punishment.

The Clippers have signed Yanic Konan Niederhauser to a multi-year contract. No terms disclosed.
