Nice, he could be the steal of the second round.

It's the same type of thing we did with Nowell. When you give a rookie more than the minimum, it has to come from somewhere.

Depends how you structure it Nowell's deal had unguaranteed years and a team option so basically they could cut him anytime they wanted without any real hit.

Do you guys think we main roster him now that we have space, or do we still two way him. We are at 12 with the signing of Forbes.

Good Question. I'm guessing main roster.

We have just enough money to get to 14 without him. I wonder who else is left on TC’s radar.

Agree, but I am asking what free agent PGs of note are still available? Maybe Wright on another two way?

I am also looking for list of all the available backup PGs. Dragic would be amazing but I feel like chances of us landing Dragic is <1%.

Would have to be a bi annual signing. Might put us into the tax when we get #14. Plus we still need to pay the 2 two way players. But I like where your head is at :)

Schroeder is also available. I definitely would not mind him on a BAE

Works for me. I wonder if we are free agent destination now that we have Rudy to pair with KAT and Ant. Would Schroeder get the backup role or would Finch play favorites and go with JMAC?

honestly I have no clue lol. Schroeder's value seems pretty low right now and last year he was on a contract of $5.8M.

I may have sold him short when I said he would be McDaniels lite.

His defense wasn’t that good. He needs time to develop. The test is whether he can keep putting up numbers or if he crashes back down to earth. He also needs to get better at boxing out and positing himself for boards. I like his shooting form. It was supposed to be a weakness, but it looked like a strength. Good free throw shooting as well. If they ran action for him he would have put up 30.
