we'd have to move keldon or vassell to make room. he's not opting out just to get MLE money
i think the wolves would explore some S&T where they receive a big. they moved towns for randle, and randle is probably out himself. losing reid for nothing would be pretty devastating. rudy will be 33 by the time next season starts as well
They need to shed salary,being a second apron team. If they were OKwith payroll, they’d just keep Naz. The only Hail Mary possible would be if Randle stupidly opted out.
would be hilarious if they traded KAT just to try and save money so they could afford Reid only for him to leave in free agency
When's the last time the Spurs landed any of these "Spurs are the favorite to land..." scenarios? Does anyone actually bet on these or are they all just hypothetical odds?
I imagine the Wolves have planned for this and are going to resign him, but a lot rides on Randle opting in/out. I imagine he opts in which is going to put MIN into a tougher spot, but I think the real impact is going to be their inability to hang on to NAW, because I doubt they want to pay the repeater tax.
If Randle for some reason opts out, then MIN is probably in the clear.
Reid on the Spurs would be stupidly ideal. Won't get my hopes up.
Second Apron should not be a problem if they rescind NAW and sign Naz to a 4/100. Their existing roster, with all of the cap holds, puts them at $15MM under the 2nd Apron next year as it currently stands.
So, next year, they’d be fine. What about years 2-4?
Randle rolls off and they'll still be "fine" in terms of the ability to have the players they currently have (without any regard to whether that's a good team or not).
I will say, I haven't spent enough time with their cap sheet and I may be looking at it wrong... will dive in more and see how much flexibility they actually have.
de'aaron fox
wasnt there a decent amount of CP3 smoke as well?
Here's what I calculate for MIN if Randle opts in, they give Naz a 4/100 (flat $25MM?/yr), rescind all other FAs, bring back all their cheap end-of-bench RFAs, don't add any draft picks (assumptions are for simplicity). All figures in millions
Year 25-26 26-27 27-28 28-29 Total Payroll 205.1 161.7 157.5 111.1 Tax Line 190.1 206.6 227.3 250 2nd Apron 207.8 228.6 251.4 276.6 2nd Apron Space 2.7 66.9 93.9 165.5 Players Under Contract 15 8 6 3
I meant to write "aside from Fox", but yes I do recall CP3 also having "betting" odds favoring the Spurs. Though it seems like we're always the favorite to land any player, and I doubt there is much actual betting that happens with these odds
2023? Bassey Mamu Champagnie
2021 Zach Collins
2019 DeMarre Carroll
2017 Pau Gasol
2015 Aldridge
You didn't say all star though
Wish Evin would ing do something to up his trade value
bruh, you know damn well there was no "Spurs are the favorites to land Sandro Mamukalashvili" tweets
Man i hope we dont trade one of these draft picks to have salary to have room to sign him.This team needs to keep
adding young talent.Cause this young roster aint it.
What type of character guy is Naz?
Don’t get my hopes up.
Anyone who takes Kelon gets Evin thrown in free
Bye Devin
We need talent. I’m tired of high character guys who don’t belong on an nba court.
I would give my left nut for this.
Wolves are going to do everything they can do keep Naz, I think the odds of the spurs getting him are very low. However, they'd be capped out by resigning Naz so in that scenario Nickeil Alexander-Walker may be a very nice target to snipe
Pipe dream tbh. Would be perfect next to Wemby tho.
