Not my desire, but my prediction, is they all get declined.

I would guess one of Diallo or Jackson.

Diallo because he might be a trade component, Jackson because we desperately need three point shooters and he's cheap.

I'm leaning toward Jackson because Diallo is redundant with Ivey to some degree. The higher cost for Diallo might also be a factor depending on what Weaver plans on doing with that cap space. In addition, Diallo wasn't very happy with limited minutes last season and certainly won't see more, barring injuries.

All I know for sure, is that Garza is toast. Team now has 6 bigs.

He'll land on his feet.

You're crazy if you think you're replacing Frank Jackson for as cheap as he is imo.

All it takes is 1 guy to get injured and there will be plenty.

Last year Diallo played SG/SF/PF, depending on who was hurt. He did a great job with every minute he was out there. $5M is nothing.

Plus he could be added to a trade as an expiring.

He shot 30.8% last year (from 3) and had so many poor shooting games. Plus he doesnt add anything else.

Would rather have someone like McGruder than Jackson.

He also stormed off the court and Weaver had to come down the stands to console him. IDK that wasn’t a good sign.

Back up PF and SG. He did a fine job being this hustle energy guy that rebounded and crashed the rim for us despite being undersized. He plays bigger than he is so he'll easily get minutes for us there

I think that Diallo stays and the rest are gone. I think Garza will be in the summer league. Overall, the big issue is Bey. Will they run him at 3 or 4. If he is the starting three, my guess is that Diallo probably is on a short term stay.

And he played great after that incident which is good sign.

Because they gave him mins. What happens if they don’t because they aren’t available?

He was pissed because Josh Jackson was playing and he wasn't, while Josh was playing very poorly. Diallo got minutes and immediately looked like a man on fire. Stealing, blocking shots, dunking.

Casey does weird stuff with his rotations and it rubs guys the wrong way. I get it - Im yelling at the TV too.
