The rookie scale gets a big bump up the last year(nearly $1 million). Singleton's option is for more than the BAE and Vesley's is over 4 million. Even with declining the option, the Wizards would retain bird rights(although I think they become un-restricted free agents).
Even if you see upside in the players, I don't think a rational analysis would put their value above their option prices. So if they did perform this season, they could be locked in at potentially a low deal vs. them increasing their value and getting a bigger deal in after the final year.

If we can just cut him now, pay him off for this year and open up that roster spot, thatd be the best of the possibilities.

Not with this penny-pinching organization, perhaps they will surprise and do just that.

Sorry, but I had to necro-bump this.

I saw his name in the box score, but realistically did not notice him much on the floor...even in garbage time. Anyone get a feel for how he looked tonight?
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

I remember he missed a long 2 and made a 3 pointer...that's about it.
