For the record, I don’t think they do this. But I think the scenario makes it fair to say Springer’s spot (and maybe Walsh’s) are on the hot seat entering camp
Damn Eric, I was not aware the savings would be that much. I guess we shall see though
Jaden springer is way too expensive, and he doesn’t even have a y in his name. I like him but I don’t see the value
Tbh I like Springer, and think he can carve out a role in the league. And I just don’t think he’ll ever get the chance to do that here. Might just be logical all around.
If it gets them under the 2nd tier to kick the can down the road another yr than its very plausible
I’d rather lose Walsh, Luke or PP
sometimes I think if we saved 7.2 million here we can pay for like 6 more regular basketball operations (ie: scouts) and medical staff for the next 5 years which might help our on court results more than Jaden Springer ever could
If he’s not in the rotation, they will dump him at the trade deadline guaranteed.

Why would they do this?
