Around the NBA V: Live and Let Die

[EvanZ]

According to Bobby Marks, the Bulls have upped their offer for Josh Giddey from 4/80 to 4/88.

Skipping to the Giddey comments. I don't know how to post a YT link at a specific timestamp - forum software keeps deleting the timestamp. Sorry.

Boy they really caved in the end.

I was hoping brogdan was also given a promise, but maybe he just couldn't wait any more. And took the guarantee.

Except it's non-guaranteed. He'll compete with Shamet and Mathews, also on non-guaranteed deals, for a spot.

Question for you - having signed a deal, even if non-guaranteed, I assume that precludes Brogdon from talking to anybody else at this point about a guaranteed deal?

(I’m thinking about a scenario where the Warriors and Kuminga end up coming to resolution, even if it’s just him taking the QO, but them finally “being free” to close on deals with all of the folks such as Horford, Melton, etc…… Brogdon would have to be let go by the Knicks before they could actually talk to him, right? Or similarly, I think Coffey is just on a camp deal with Milwaukee - could he break that if the Warriors offered him a guaranteed deal?)

Yeah, once he's signed, guaranteed or not, camp deal or whatever, he has to be waived before anyone else can talk to him. He's under contract.
