There was mostly pessimism through the weekend that the Hawks and rising star Jalen Johnson would reach terms on a rookie scale contract extension. Less than nine hours left now for that to change before tonight's 6 PM ET deadline. Eligible players who don't extend today proceed to restricted free agency in the summer.
There was also a weekend gap in extension talks between Dallas and newly acquired Quentin Grimes. We'll learn today if there is enough time left for a deal to be struck.
