Based on his play last season.
He was not good last year.
We can argue he's a victim of a tanking culture, and his injuries were exaggerated. But looking at his numbers isn't inspiring. Also, no one else is offering him money. Let alone guarantee money.
I acknowledge the 3pt shooting dip, but numbers don't tell all. Dude played well when ...healthy. Now I don't guarantee he stays healthy he because he does have lingering foot injuries which have held him back a bit. But he wont be needed to play big minutes. And as you mentioned we are the opposite of a tanking culture.
When healthy he’s a legit sixth man. Reliable and dependable against the second unit, can still hoop with the first unit when called on. Good locker room presence, doesn’t get into trouble.
It seems like he thrives in smaller roles on contending teams. I trust our current medical staff- Mitch after his return and OG made it thru last season (Phew!) ...so I'm tentatively hopeful.
