A two-year player option? Did we just use the MLE on Pat and Portis?

Seriously **** all these player options though. Will he never get this through his thick skull?

Probably what got him to come here. I could see this becoming a bigger trend with Free Agents, in general, as time progresses. Started with SuperStars, but is becoming a Player thing.

Maybe he can punch Budenholzer when he only plays Giannis 30 minutes with the season on the line in an elimination game?

Good addition off the bench, can hit threes at a decent-good clip.

We'll have to see the salary though.

I mean, a backup F/C doesn't suck. We needed someone.

I haven't specifically watched Portis in several years, though. Like since the Mirotic/Portis battle years. Is he still worth a damn?

I hope this means we're not actually investing big money in a backup center since we've acquired a 4/5 hybrid.

He’s gotta be the backup to Brook, no?
