NBA agents don't just work on the team contracts. They arrange sponsorships and can work with teams to get their clients in the situations they want. There is a reason Rich Paul is one of the most powerful men in the NBA.
Yes, you're right. Rich Paul is in place for high leverage situations like players wanting to be traded. SGA is obviously very happy in OKC.
SGA & I think the same way. No point in hiring a realtor or a financial advisor or any of these non value jobs that just get commission because that's the way it's always been done.
The bolded is my only take away. SGA must be happy to stay in OKC and trust management not to Luka him...at least for now. We'll see if he doesn't hire an agent sometime during that next contract.
