First contract was 3 years for ~$10 million. I believe since it was all guaranteed, he will become an RFA at the end of the deal.

Is that true? That would be such a relief.

Thanks for double checking :) My understanding is that the Grizz FO used the Areneas provisions for 2nd round players to structure Marc's deal so they'd have the right to match at the end of his 3 years.
