He makes $5.6m and will be FA next summer.

Too bad he is a child in a man body....he was pretty good with Charlotte.

Nope, I am with you 1000%

I’m down with that, but can he stay on the floor? Last season he had conditioning issues and picked up fouls quickly. We’ll see how he’s progressed later this summer.

Huge surprise that Morris has gotten nothing so far. Really thought he'd able to get between 13 and 15 mils a year easy.

How is he as a defender, rebounder?

Make it so.

I think I’d rather have a somewhat lame Boogie than any of the other fa bigs at this point. Worth a gamble, in my estimation, if the price is right. He could salvage his career and end up an impact player next post-season.

He better hope the Lakers dont sign a max FA, cause he'll have to settle for the min and he wa talking big game about his contract last season.

This guy is a decent stopgap. Probably better than whoever's still out there. Will only cost us Semi and cap space.

Watch on YouTube

We need a bruiser down low and an instigator. He can do both. Can stroke the three. He can also be used as trade ballast midseason if a huge trade comes along lol.

He's going to do whatever Rich Paul/LeBron tells him to do. Everyone apparently bows to "the king" apparently

That’s just idiotic on his part.

Nope playing next to Embiid is an ideal situation for him especially at his age and with his knees, L͏i͏fe is going to be much simpler for him and the ceiling is a lot higher there regardless of what Celtics fans think, not to mention what they’re willing to pay him

NO THANKS !

$14M and $15M for the next two seasons. We can have cheaper and better player.

We're gonna end up with Frank Kaminsky. Watch. Just watch. Everyone says we just need a big that rebounds and plays some D. Very understandable. I don't think Brad and Danny think like that. They loved Frank at the draft. I'm betting they still do. They'll look at his size and see how his shooting has improved and they'll say "We can get him to rebound enough" and "He'll be awesome at drawing the bigs out of the paint" Interior defense the way most people think of it has not been a major emphasis in the Brad Stevens era. Watch. You'll see. Get ready. This is my "hot take" of the summer. Frank Kaminski-- future Boston Celtic

LOL Meyers Leonard shot 45% from 3 last season. Not much of a rim protector though.
