Hate to see him leaving. He is a great player. I guess it's all business.

Guessing it's the knee

Cap space and future flexibility. I don't think they're done. They need roster space, if not now then over the summer. I think it's a pretty good move. Not sure Tillman and Kennard will be here next season and Oladipo is an expiring contract. Konchar, Zaire, and LaRavia need to be on the bus too.

Yep those last 3 need to be out immediately.

Yea, they are definitely not done dealin' ... more to come in the next couple of weeks as trade deadline approaches

Konchar might be tradeable , but when he stopped makiing shots (29% from the 3 ) --- LaRavia is a total bust he is going to hard to give away-- I would trade Zaire for a useful player but he still may have potential, I would wait and see if he comes out healthy and productive next year if we could not get a servicable player for him .......

I think Zaire has already reached his ceiling in the NBA.

A couple of sites show that Kennard, LaRavia, Roddy, Santi all have Club Options next year ??? If that's true, can we just not exercise them on a couple of them and be done with what we need to do ???

Not really. Kennard has a team option. His team has until June 29th, I think, to exercise it.

The others have either the 3rd or 4th year of their rookie deals. Ziaire too. But the team has already exercised each player's option for next season. Teams have to do this on rookies by October 30th of the preceding year. For example, the Grizz exercised Laravia's 3rd year team option, which is next year for Laravia, last October 30th.

Adams was a good fit with our core players. I hate that he got hurt and I hope we can find a player similar to him that is very good in the less celebrated aspects of the game.

Thx for the info … hopefully these 2nd rd picks can help move La Ravia and crew and free up roster spots and cap room

Bring back Valanciunas? Think he's a free agent this summer.
