[Marc Stein] DeMar DeRozan, with no discernible momentum since the NBA Finals toward a new contract from the Bulls, is likely to wait until George makes his decision to get a better feel for his non-Chicago options.

Cause Chicago isn’t an option, right?
…..right?
He’s a clipper if pg leaves
Bon voyage, demar. I’ll never forget your b2b game winners.
Honestly he outplayed his contract here. Not only with his on court production but also leadership and mentorship.
He taught these young guys how to be professional and the improved in attitude, culture, and individual progression has a been noticeable change from the last front office.
If this is the end of Demar with the Bulls then best wishes to him moving forward.
It was actually reported after the finals when DeMar wasnt approached with an extension.
But it’s too far sighted to just expect Paul George will be signed via S&T. Philly can sign PG straight up in free agency. If this is the case, Clippers will have no means to absorb DeMar’s contract. Given they will be capped out wih James Harden’s extension and no trade exception.
Seriously, I have no idea on what the Clippers are doing. All I know is they dodging the second apron. And that they are clearing salaries 4 years from now. Maybe preparing for 2028 free agency or sort.
Bottom line is, we can’t just be dependent on Clippers and hope we getting something from DeMar S&T. DeMar could walk for nothing TBH. And we still owe the Spurs a top 10 protected next season or a top 8 in the following two years. AKMe are sitting ducks hoping for the best. Hope they get lucky just like they did with the Matas pick.
