Kinda funny ... we lose Gortat and Boban, but pick up Zubac ... who splits the difference. Bigger than Gortat, smaller than Boban. And 21 years old. Damn.

I think if we can clear a roster spot, we'll have to look into another big. Unless FO thinks Zubac, Harrell, Motley is good enough.
With Scott and Harris gone. and Gallo often injured, I suspect Harrell will play heavy minutes at PF.

I'm about 90% sure we'll stand pat. I said this another thread--I think Angel Delgado is just waiting for the phone to ring--which it will.

In the meantime, we'll run Zubac with (almost?) all of Gortat's minutes and play Motley a little more. Because--well, why not? Look at those names. 21 and 23 and (in Delgado's case) 24 year olds with upside. Zubac started some games this year and played well. Giving them time shows us and the rest of the league their value. If you were thinking about making an offseason moves or resigning players--which we obviously are--you couldn't ask for a better situation.

I wish the best for milos. Seems like a good guy and a contributor. Just the odd man out this season. A playoff team could use him

Looks like early our guys on the bench have no concept of ball movement

Shamet is just so confident in his movements and whenever he touches the ball you can just see it
