he has announced that he will opt out of his contract.
this doesn't mean he wants to leave Atlanta, might very well re sign there (will depend if Hawks re sign JJ and/or bring back Childress), but at 31 he will also try to get as many years as possible. he might even take a pay cut, if he can get 3 guaranteed years. (3 years/6million?). could be an interesting option for the Bogans role, if there is enough money left from the MLE, after the Splitter signing. (if there is any left at all)
