Iguodala Likely To Opt Out Of Contract With Nuggets 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun Mar 31, 2013 3:07 am

Andre Iguodala is likely to exercise the opt-out clause in his contact after this season.


Opting out would enable Iguodala to obtain a multi-year deal elsewhere or possibly lengthen his commitment to the Nuggets.


“You got to weigh options,” Iguodala said. “Security-wise, a player would opt, especially with the type of season we’ve had as a team. Teams know what I can bring to them, and I know (the Nuggets) know what I can bring to a team here.
 
“Players get like $50, $60 or $70 or $80 (million over multiple years), whatever the number was, they gave up a big number (in an option season by opting out). But in the grand scheme of things, pretty much get it back. You got security.’’


Iguodala declined to guarantee he would re-sign with the Nuggets.


“Obviously, it’s a business, so you’re going to look at your options,” Iguodala said. “Here we have some good (prospects). But I’m not making any promises.”
