Woj: Tre Jones Has Agreed to a 2-yr/$20M Deal with Spurs

[BatManu20]

Dope. Good deal for both parties tbh.

[lefty20]

Fair deal. Well done, Wright.

[Seventyniner]

I like it.

[timvp]

Sweet. I expected 4 years, $40 million so 2 years, $20 million even better

[Splits]

not an extension tho

[spurraider21]

its palatable

[Kurik]

This is the best outcome for flexibility.

[rankingtear]

Money on point. Years is a win.

[DAF86]

its palatable

Pretty much this. I'm not a fan of paying Tre 10 millions per year, but at a 2 year contract, it isn't as harmful.

[jermaine]

He'll be Dame Dolla's backup so we're good fellas.

[slick'81]

Eat your heart out austin reaves

[BatManu20]

Is this right?

[spurraider21]

if the spurs rescind Tre's QO, then they cant go over the cap to sign him

the spurs need to keep the QO out there, keep his cap hold at 5.2 mil. make all the signings they want. and then ink tre with bird rights to get over the cap

[DAF86]

Make no mistake about it, Spurs doing Tre a solid here. Ain't no other way Tre was making 10 mil a year, tbh. Maybe a trade of in favour of us in Tre's next contract.

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

Not a single word is correct tbh.

[CGD]

None of this seems accurate

Meh. Colby White got 11 a year from the bulls. I think 10 was Tre market. Good signing by the Spurs. He is a great backup point guard.

Nah he got market value, just look at some of these other contracts.

White is considerably better, though.

[DAF86]

If he signed a 2 year contract it is because he didn't have those many of options, tbh.

Heck, here folks were saying 4/40 was cheap. Hollinger's 4/70.

[poopbox]

White is considerably better, though.

I don't know about that.

Like I said in another thread:

All in all, considering the madness we're seeing elsewhere, this feels like a solid compromise where:
1) Tre gets paid well according to his status (starter on a Spurs team but backup elsewhere)
2) The length is just right in that it aligns with '25 free agency thus not harming the Spurs long term, while it also gives Tre 2 years to prove he's a full time starter period (not just on a tanking team) and deserves to be paid as such.
Fair for both parties.

Now we've kept our main FA, let's go add someone.

[kobyz]

bigtime overpay, basically Gabe Vincent money

[Seventyniner]

tbh I would have preferred a flat 4/40. The cap will be around 164M in year 3 and 181M in year 4 of that contract. 10M for a solid backup PG is good value from a percentage of salary cap standpoint.

I wonder if this is a signal that the Spurs are prioritizing 2025 cap room, and that they won't be looking to offer any 3 or 4 year deals at all this summer. Other than Vassell of course.

[JPB]

I believe it makes sense for both parts, Tre probably betting on himself with that short (but still good money wise) contract and spurs aVOidINg bIG coSTly MisTakEs while keeping some leeway at PG understanding Tre will soon (maybe even this year) will be a bu PG. They clearly don't see Tre as a major part of the future, until proven otherwise... Tre will have to show he belongs in a Victor's compe ive team.
