Giving 30 mio per year for 8/8 player is kinda crazy. And will he be just backup for Chet or Chet will play on 4? With their assets they should go after Markkanen.

Chet was +14 on/off and only +2 on court in the PO, the team fell apart w/o him on the floor, I would've done the same, they can pay the 30M, 2 of their big 3 are on rookie contracts, pay 30M for 25MPG RS guy that'll carry the load for 15MPG in the PO.

Hartenstein is ok, but he doesn't make them that much better that Markkanen would.
OKC biggest problem was scoring outside Shai, getting Markkanen would solved that and putting J-Will on 3 would make them much bigger. Then you can get whatever defensive big for those 15 minutes.

It's a bit complicated, Markannen is very underpaid, he can't be extended at max salary, because extension is based on current salary, and his salary is low, to be paid fairly he must become free agent next year, unless very special and specific situation occurs:
If the team that has the player has also cap space, they can do renegotiate, increase his salary and extend (what Sacramento did last year with Sabonis, that's why they dumped Holmes), this way Markennen can be paid max salary this year, and extended at max salary.
Because of this situation, Markannen has told everyone, I don't want to be traded, he'd have to play at low salary this year, and wait till next year to get paid (if he gets injured, or plays bad, he can lose his max contract).
I think UTA will do renegotiate and extend, and trade him at the deadline (low probability) or next year, in which case Presti need salary to match, guess what he has now with this contract? Very high and short term salary to match...

If someone like Spurs doesn't get him before.

But even then I still trust Nico, I mean even last night he didnt waste time once he found out DJJ would have not come back and signed immediately the best available replacement in Naj
