This seems high, I thought he'd be a vet min deal?

Smells like Lakers are just doing 1+1 deals for cap space in 26.

Really solid bench guy, surprised Sac let him leave for this price?

I think LaRavia has another level. Large frame, plays defense, shoots 3s. Seems like the perfect cheap guy to grow next to Luka.

This is a good signing. Low key could be better than DFS next season.

We were the team that could offer him less than anyone. Memphis didn't offer his 4th year, then we traded for him. We were capped paying him 5.2 or something like that

Good value IMO.

Splitting the MLE is better than giving it to Ayton

Likely Ayton. Sharpe already re-signed with Brooklyn.

Yeah I miscalculated. 2 years for Giannis in 27 no doubt.

We will see the other signings. Let's see what other signings get done. Might all be 2-year deals. Would explain DFS going if they only wanted to give a 2 year deal.

With DFS opting out, did the Lakers open up the Full MLE and room? Or was this the TPMLE?

If it was the TPMLE, who are they signing at C for the minimum?

Yes. And I believe it could be the BAE.

Guessing this is the TPMLE and they're keeping their options open
