I'm ok with keeping Bullock at that rate. Hopefully he can stay healthy next season.

Great deal. I'm very happy about this. He is excellent insurance at the SG/SF positions.

Probably means Gbenije is gone right? So many guards..but I like Bullock at 2.5 a year.

Great deal, just need him to stay healthy. Also another possible "take minutes from Kennard" player.

You would think so but SVG loves himself some shooting guards...whats 1 more?

Bullock can play SF/SG. Good reassurance

Not sure when his contract is fully guaranteed. But, we still had roster spots open.

It's a good value on the contract if Bullock can actually stay healthy.

I assume we used his Bird Rights so still have the BAE to spend on a PF.

Anthony Tolliver incoming.

I can see Bullock playing most, if not all of his minutes at the 3 next season.

I'd be much more comfortable with a starting lineup with Stanley and Tobias at the 3/4 knowing Bullock can back up Stanley.

Gbinije's contract can be bought out for $500K by July 15th, otherwise it's on the books for $1.3M next season. I think we're keeping him on the books until the 14th to see if anybody needs his contract to use in a trade that we can sell them like we did Hilliard. He's a goner though, but could see him brought back on one of those G-League two way deals.

He's definitely being brought in as a third SF this time around. He's undersized for it, but there is no perfect third string anything in the league. And the better options were not going to sign here for $2.5M a year.

Also given he is a 2/3, eventhough if everybody is healthy he's here as a third string small forward, if Reggie goes down again and Galloway needs to get all his minutes at the point for an extended period, Bullock could slide back and get minutes at the 2-guard if necessary.

I like Bullock we need a small forward who can shoot 3pts all day they need to play him more since Morris is gone.
