Extra roster spot for when Giannis asks to be waived and wants to sign for the minimum with the champs. He'd be a good facsimile of Oshae for that 10th-12th man role.

Thanks for giving 100% when you played and now for the roster spot.

Yeah - I sort of thought opting in could be a negative for roster flexibility. Didn't realize his salary was so much more than the minimum. He may regret this but he can get more playing time elsewhere and leverage it into more money later.

Pros:
Superb energy guy
Canadian
Makes cool podcasts
Cons:
Can't shoot
Layups not his forte
Congrats on your ring, thanks for your contribution when your number was called, and good luck with whatever comes next.

I was very happy when we signed him, and thought he always brought good energy/vibes. Wish he could have made a few of those layups or jumpers go in. Maybe with consistent playing time elsewhere he can.

Oh no. Giannis will be super disappointed to learn that.

But his brother works if we’re hoping a change in scenery morphs him in Giannis 2.0.

Any word if he is looking elsewhere, or if he is interested in signing a longer deal with Boston?

The only thing I apparently have in common with Oshae Brissett is "Can't shoot"

Oshae was talking in his vlog like the intends on being back. Not sure why he declined his option.

Can sign to a higher number via non-Bird. Or more years.

He could be brought back. But his testing of the waters, might not be a good idea, at this time.

Maybe even get another player option (which functions as an insurance policy).

Re: Welcome to Boston, Oshae Brissett! – (Declines 2024-25 Option)
He declined a $2.5M option. His vet min is about $2.4M.
A guy like him could be out of the league for a year or on a non guaranteed contract if he tears his ACL in the playoffs or at the end of the regular season or even if he just has a really bad year. If he opted in, he just has the 1 year. He's probably not good enough to get more than the vet min again as a free agent, but he probably is good enough to get a player option added to the deal like he got with us.
For a guy like him, signing a $2.4M vet min deal with the player option for security next year is worth the $100K paycut IMO. Even if that's back with us in the same role as last year. If he finds that deal from a team with more of a role for him, then that's even better for his long term earnings outlook.
