It's going to be an interesting few years. A lot of bad money coming off the books, which artificially deflated this years market after the big guns. There wasn't real cash and there's about to be. It's gonna be a bloodbath.

I sent them in last year.

You can trade your exempt players, if that's what you mean. If you mean if they're eligible to be played on your roster, you should ask bish, but I feel like they should be, since they both got burn during their rookie years. But, it kinda depends on the sim creators at that point, and whether they put the players in the sim. I think bish at some point will give us a deadline and tell us which players need to get moved from the EL to the main roster.

Exclusive: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander signed a $28M endorsement deal for a "no-show job" with a fraudulent tree-planting company funded by $50M from Hornets owner, according to documents obtained by @PabloTorre.

"It was to circumvent the salary cap," an inside source says.
