Keep Okafor around?

BIG props to chrbal.... u nailed it.

So do we keep Okafor around? I mean he did pretty much guarantee us the #1 pick by signing here.... we can at least pay him so he can feed his family for years to come as a thank you gift.

You need to have a 3rd string center on the roster. So if he doesn't stay you need to keep Cook.

Keep Okafor. He can contribute in meaningless games.

No. His superpower is only useable once per team. He now goes into 2022 free agency with his agent only having to show clips of him joining a team and then them winning the lottery. Only talk to lottery teams and force a bidding war.

His contract should be used with cap space to add a more expensive expiring contract and assets.

The bold is gold.

That's pretty much where I'm at on Okafor. As I've posted previously, he's the one player on this roster currently that I don't see any use for whatsoever.
