News, rumors and buzz around the draft and free agency

Jalen Rose saying he's 99% sure Kawhi will stay in Toronto on a 2-year deal. The end of that contract would put him at 10 years in the league, making for a richer max contract at that time.

I read an article that touched on this exact point. Korver can be picked up by the Jazz if traded again, then waived... just not if waived by the team Utah traded him to.

If we are working on a deal for more shooting, it's not a bad option.

Would be a complete win if the Jazz were able to bring him back after all of this settles.

It’s interesting because of how much more he could sign for next year. The argument is always that you make more in marketing deals in LA to negate lower pay there. However, what’s the total marketing $$ difference between being with LeBron and AD vs. being the face of basketball for an entire country? I don’t know.

I think he is eligible for that next year... so it'd be a 1+1... plus all of Toronto's guys are up next year... makes for a nice bookend. I think he might be staying.

I'm not sure there is this huge difference if you are a star. The 10 year max is like 6-7M more per year... so that's a lot.

Fare thee well, part two. The Conley trade, as discussed back then, will also cost the Jazz Kyle Korver and Grayson Allen. Memphis will still have until the weekend to decide if they want to guarantee Korver’s salary and keep him, of pay $3.44 million to cut him loose. If they do waive him, Utah will be prohibited from reacquiring him for one year. If they were to trade him again and then THAT team let him go, then in theory, Utah could offer him a veteran minimum contract3.

idk, I have a hard time believing that a guy who turned down a supermax which is basically the 10+ year max come early to get out of San Antonio will want to now focus on getting to that level.
 
I like Korver but he is done. I would rather keep an open spot for one of our young guys to develop. Korver coming back as a shooting coach would be awesome.

Unless getting out of SA was more important at the time, and now it's back to business.

See I think because he's proven that he doesn't care about money over being somewhere where he thinks he's in a good situation that makes him less likely to stay in Toronto. The nice thing for Toronto is that the issue with LA right now is that it's LeBron's city whereas Kawhi owns Toronto and by virtue Canada at the moment.

I'm not really trying to say he's not signing with Toronto, moreso that if he does re-up with Toronto I highly doubt it'll be because he's just wanting to hang around for 2 more years and then get his full max deal, especially with the health concerns he's had. If he stays with Toronto it's because he's the undisputed #1 guy on a championship team, and he owns one of the bigger NBA markets even if it's not a US market.

I’m ok with a vet but Vince carter is better than Korver.
