Yet we picked up his 24-25 option. Someone must still see something...


Only because his contract next year was cheap and they worry about the second apron. That being said he hasn't lived up to any expectations and I think he gets traded next month.

He's essentially a minimum expiring contract, but one with at least a little potential. And with few matchable salaries, that can come in handy.
