Absolutely not. He has a $12mil cap hold in 2025, when we're expected to have a ton of cap space. You don't give that flexibility up.

yea you do if you get him signed for a reasonable deal. We can always trade him later if need be . There is flexibility in that. He's only 22 and seems to be getting better even if he's just a scorer for his career, his floor seems like a 6th man Lou Williams/Jamal Crawford type.

No. You can't trade him before the extension kicks in. He's a restricted free agent. He'll be taken care of. He just needs to sign AFTER a max FA is signed.
