you know what's a good idea when you have 18 players for a 15 player roster? signing another one!

I guess this might be a camp invite, but he's a multi year veteran, so i can't see that. if this is dumb, just let the tread die.

also, i'm not good at inserting pretty stuff from web pages, so feel free to outdo me below.

They signed him last week and I believe it is a camp deal. He had a knee issue last year and the Blazers let him go after the McCollum/Ingles deal for salary match purposes. I thought he was here to mentor Kessler but then the Bogey/KO deal happened.

Is this like Paris Bass? Are we trading for him, too?

It's a camp invite. The dude is on his way out due to injuries and age.

He’s getting a G League designated player super max.

Why would Zeller want to play in G-League
He has already made 76 mil in NBA
G-League salary does not seem worth his time

Because he wants to play in the NBA but no NBA teams wants to pay him. What's hard about this to understand? He didnt sign a contract until a few days ago, it's clear he is on his way out.

Some NBA guys actually like playing basketball????

If I wasn't hurting my body or causing stress to my fam I'd want to play as long as I could and in whatever leagues I could. Even if G League is temp stop to hopefully get paid again... its still basketball. Its fun.

If I had 8 surgeries in 9 years I might give it up lmfao

I might but if I felt healthy and it wasn't causing long term harm I'd give it a go.

Super max.

How much does a super max contract pay

You get paid in 7-11 hot dog coupons. But it’s a lot.

Word is max designation means you can redeem for Slurpees as well... Which is a game changer.

I believe the max GLeague salary is about 50K and the 50K teams can pay as an Exhibit 10 contract make it a living wage. I don't think he is eligible for the 50K bonus though.

Its basically a tryout for him down there... the money isn't something he's thinking about.

Locke mentioned that Cody Zeller might start a few games for us this year... If he makes the roster I will be furious... if he starts a game it better be cuz KO, Vando, Kessler, and Doke are all unavailable.

I ain't buying it.

Gotta think outside the box. He's a PG now.

You gotta have some big men (and picks) to make a trade with Phoenix for Ayton. Let Cody start a few games.
