I think it will be interesting to see if Apple/Amazon/Google all goin in big to take over LeaguePass... that is where I think the league could squeeze out some extra billions in addition to the whatever other TV deals they strike.
I don't think he is grandfathered into the SuperMax. He will need to make an all-NBA team next season to qualify for the SuperMax. I posted this early in discussing his contract, but it may actually be in his interest to opt of of the last year of his deal and only sign a two year extension which will take him into his 10th season, when he can get 35% based on years of service.
If not, then my understanding is that he'll only be eligible for a 30% extension. I assumed in the chart that his bird rights transfer, but I'm actually not sure of that either, because I saw somewhere that for your Bird rights to stay in tact you have to be traded by a certain point in your career, which has passed. I do not believe his deal can exceed 30% of the cap unless he hits the SuperMax criteria.

60-70% for Wemby, Trae and Vassell is a good number. That would leave you with another 60 million in cap space for 24/25 and even more later on. Sochan's extension will play a role here too, but the Spurs would basically still have room to offer another player 25-30% if they want to be top heavy and we're not even talking about going over the cap.
hopefully the spurs interest in murray was a ruse to target trae.
I'm curious to see what this does to Atl in the rankings. Currently at 10, but only 3 games ahead of Toronto.
We definitely need another team to drop below Toronto for some cushion.
we dont them to fall to much...We dont want them to get a top 6 pick and have
a better team next year.
In terms of the lottery rankings, I think he means “fall” as in drop from #7 to 8 or 9 in the end of season rankings. That reduces their chances at a top 4 pick.
This is good because it pushes Toronto’s pick chances out of the top 6.
Sucks for him, and will likely knock him out of All NBA eligibility by way of not playing 65 games. He’s at 51 now, but a month out of action shaves his margin down to basically zero.
It's also a chance for Dejounte to shine.
Which could mean a lot of things.
If Dejounte shines and they go streaking, the chatter will be that they should trade Young and go with Dejounte. Or it could be that Dejounte's value will go up and they can get more for him in a trade.
Too bad the hand thing wasn't next year instead.
He just wants to make sure he begins his career as a spurs as healthy as possible
CIA Trae![]()
So Hawks tanking now?
I’ve been thinking for a while that this is a good year for them to tank while they still own their own pick.
There’s no way Trae would get this done now if they were in contention.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they have a good initial surge without Trae but ultimately they are worse off by a lot without him.
They may just be giving DJ the keys for a test drive, and to maybe increase his value.
Seems like Okongwu is also missing at least 2 more weeks, that could make a big difference
Dejounte in the 4th with 25, 9, and 10 with a double digit lead on Orlando.
Only a matter of time until ST's Young Squad turn into Dejounte Truthers
I'd much rather trade for Murray than Young.
same here. That would leave enough money to go after some decent role players
I’d be fine with either, understanding the Murray would be the cheaper option both with respect to trade compensation and salary
Trae seems to have some connections with Wemby, they have the same personnal coach and apparently Trae is with LV too
the hawks lucked out.
