The unfortunate part of this outcome is in that with Bol exceeding expectations and continually doing so very well, with each great game he plays himself further and further out of our range, UNLESS Durant himself along with Book and Beal can convince him accept much less than what he'll likely get in free agency from some desperate young team with significant cap space that's starving for young promising talent! Maybe KD and our big three could sell him on taking over as a potential 3rd option post Durant in two years with starter minutes and a more significant pronounced role?? Being featured as part of a big three with starter minutes and a featured role has to be at least a little bit enticing to him I'd wager.
Any thoughts on what he might pull in free agency this summer given his surprising play and recent viral sensation type output against Wemby?? I have him commanding upwards of $7-10 max range possibly, but ending up in the 6-8 range from a team with cap that doesn't land a splashy name.

It might be a reasonable idea to have a contingency plan to identify/acquire the next potential Bol type prospect to fill that gap IF we truly anticipate losing him as well need to fill that hole in the roster regardless, and need another young exciting energizing talent as a replacement in that specific role for our team too. when/If the time comes, I'll offer up a few names as potential replacement options.
