Graham has handled this past year plus like a total pro. Benched for most of the year, delayed his guarantee date, but not a peep out of him in complaint and he played well when he had the chance.
Hats off to you Devonte'.
It seems the most likely.
Another theory is that Spurs are just being extra cheap. Between the $2.85M they won't give to Graham and the little cash they received from Hornets to make the trade legal, ownership has saved about $3M with that trade.
That would be quite depressing...

That's how you stay in the league as a fringe player.
Every well-ran team wants to know how veterans behave when they start collecting DNPs.
Can't spurs just waive him if he doesn't?
OKC signs Ajay Mitc (pick 38) to a two-way. Surprised he wasn't a Spurs target at 35 if he was willing to sign a Two-Way.
It actually does, but it’s also the case they can use Keldon for a trade instead.
How is that the opening highlight?![]()
Would rather keep Champ. He's good defensively just needs to have a consistent 3.
Graham was incredibly professional in his time here. Can't complain one bit about that guy. Plus he completely ed over Denver. Retire that mans number.
There's zero chance of this gross trade happening. Why are we getting rid of two good young assets for Collins? Yeah no.
We'd get rid of two young assets to get Lauri in return.
Taking on other Collins salary would also lower the asking price in terms of picks. And he's a better player than our Collins.
Won't happen, but still.
While nothing can compare to the Angelo Drossos days, it would be depressing if the front office/ownership is currently being cheap. Although no use ruminating until this plays out.
Back in the 70s and early 80s, management would try and negotiate lower base player salaries because they made the playoffs every year and got playoff bonuses. Now that is cheap.
Sure, but that wouldn't've cost him anything
I wonder if the Celtics will do a tribute to him too for his game winner against the Nuggets?
In that case, I don’t mind them being cheap this year, but I hope it’s not an indication of things to come when they HAVE to spend money.
Cause I was thinking the incentive was either we waive you now. Or we try to find a trade for you with chance of guarantee.
So from DG view. Either it's guaranteed waived now. Or wait a week maybe. Just maybe he gets guaranteed.
Turns out he didn't. But it's a gamble
The Red McComb days weren't much better. Recall Red making the team fly commercial? A n d Southwest at that.
The spurs have been known to be extra cheap before .. doesn't seem like this is anything new.
Fontecchio back to Detroit for 2 years/$16MM per Woj. Really solid deal, surprised that’s all he got.

Don't forget that sweet sweet Furphy money and the savings of stashing Nunez
Had to dump the RFA tag on Barlow to avoid the temptation to match an offer
Those ownerspawn BBLs and vacays don't pay for themselves![]()
Let’s cut deadwood Wesley, Branham & Bassey and pick up spursian shooters Shamet, Fournier and ??? (Forgot the third dude) for the vet minimum.
They're so good we can't even remember their names.
Bertans of course!
