The NBA's investigation into the sign-and-trade deals of Chicago's Lonzo Ball and Miami's Kyle Lowry before the start of NBA free agency has reached advanced stages, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Over the last three months, the league has done its due diligence in holding interviews with team executives and player agents while gathering messages from front-office executives with the Bulls, Pelicans, Heat and Raptors.
The league, which launched the tampering investigation on Aug. 7, could release its findings and any penalties associated with the findings from the investigation in the future, per Wojnarowski.
