Back To The Future - Lauri Bird

[psman2]

If Lauri contract is renegotiated this summer and extended Grizz can offer top 5 draft pick 24, 25/27/29 1st uprotected, and salary fillers for Lauri.

He likely will want a full max with max raises. He very likely would be trade eligible next season if he renegotiates.

I'm only interested if he can be extended over the summer, next year we should be going into the season healthy and with our roster intact ready to compete.

Sorry...missed the "not", we basically cannot trade for him if he extends, unless he is willing to do an regular extension, which he won't since he will make a lot more if he renegotiates or as a free agent after the season. Only way Memphis gets him is as rental and hope he resigns.

Yeah that's what I was afraid of.
