That's a big commitment but also should be a very tradable contract if opportunities arise.

Not bad for an UDFA that came in and worked his butt off on his body and shooting. Good for you, Naz.

I updated the Capology thread for any interested.

If Randle leaves we will have the full MLE to use and still be slightly under the tax.
If Randle opts in we will be about 5 million under the 2nd apron but well over the 1st apron and about 14 million over the luxury tax line.

We really need him to up his game. With this signing, our future is Ant, JMcD, Naz, and Dilly. All three needs to take their game to the next level. One needs to be close to all star level especially with scoring.

Don't forget TSJ and Beringer in that future.

With the cap continuing to rise there's a good shot we look back on this deal in a couple years calling it a steal.

Yes, TSJ seems to gotten ahead of Clark now. He will take the NAW minutes. If Randle is not back, we will need another big until Marie Antoinette turn into Joan of Arc.

It's not a bad contract. Glad to see him get his bag. Really comes down to what we do for the rest of the off-season.

Completely fair. Should be a great contract in a few years. Get rid of Randle, and give reins to naz to improve.

Can Naz improve simply by getting more starting experience?

Not being forced to be the c next to Randle absolutely. Those 2 together is a disaster.. Age-wise he is also nearing his prime.

I've said this before, against most lineups he is the sf, and jaden plays pf.
