Josh Hart gets the final spot on Team USA.

Now that that's done, where's Brown's extension?

Apologies if posted previously...

Why are Hornets in the market for a PF? Are they gonna let Washington walk, or resign him to be Grant's backup? Bridges is coming back on a qualifying offer. What a bizarre team. They have a thing for overpaying mediocre Celtics players.

I read somewhere NBA players on average keep 52% of the total amount team pay them. That escrow amount (10% of the salary) is kept by the league just in case if the league earnings fall short of the projections. 99% of the times players get those at the end of the season.

Edit: So, he's gonna make 17.7 + 4.1 = 21.8 which is 52.6% of 41.4

BTW, Cs don't have a representative on Team USA this time around. Rumor has it Luke Kornet turned them down as he is committed to improving for the upcoming season.

I love an instigator on the team and with Marcus and potentially Grant gone that leaves a hole to be filled. Need at least one a-hole.

Thanks to those who pointed out PBev has already signed, been busy AF and haven't been following things closely.

Right, I think it’s true in a sense but maybe not in reality. Prob step one is start a charity and pay all your family and friends to run it.
