So this is 3/59 in addition to the 2/22.8 left on his existing deal.
5 years, $81.8M in total - $16.36 AAV for his age 25, 26, 27, 28 and 29 seasons.

Hmm idk about this one.. I like Wendell I just don't know if he is what we need to get to the next level(nevermind the fact that he can't play more the 60 games a year). Something gotta give the resigning of all these guy... I like him off the bench more then anything but I also like Wagner & goga off the bench as well. Just a bitt odd in my eyes after extending Wagner & goga.

tradable contract... Weltman may just like this team but he has MANY moveable pieces

If Carter can play 75 games a season over all these years, he will be a valuable starter for Orlando. If not, this is a very tradeable contract.

Solid guy, just doesnt make plays that stand out.
Honestly think a bad fit for Paolo though.

That’ll be MLE money by 28-29 won’t it? A little more than Isaac. Smart moves for both of those guys to secure 5 year contracts. If they stay healthy, very good value for us.

I think the $ are fair and good ... I just don't know of what he brings to the 5 position is what we need the most. But definitely solid contract numbers, like the points about how tradeable it os

And-1
The MLE for non-taxpaying teams in 28/29 is currently projected at $18,775,000.
Which, by the way, is 6.5M more per year than this year's MLE.
