Hope he comes back, his presence has been great.
New deal ? Shocked he didn’t just accept his player option
Maybe he’s gonna sign like a two year deal or something
I rly hope he takes a discount like 3 mil + player option next year. Just bc the cap space is so tight. 1 extra mil could be the difference in us keeping Haywood
He was an awesome backup but this will probably dip into our mid-level exception, no? That’s pretty bad for us if it works how I imagine, but I’m not sure about all of the cap rules
