Locker Clean-out Discussion

He says "you know" a lot, you know.
 
Hard not to love this team more and more every time you hear them talk.... at least I don't think it's just me that happens to. I shouldn't be but keep being surprised that I enjoy this team more and more and Mitchell, man he's just the man.
 
Every dude, even AB, seemed positive and upbeat. Not sure we've ever had a squad where that was the case for everyone.
 
That makes what Exum did in the playoffs even more impressive that he played through an injury.

I would be shocked if he wasnt here next year. I have no idea on the price though.
 
Here is the Ricky conundrum... he has a cap hold of 22M in 2019 when we need to use space. If we extend Dante and have that caphold then it will be tough to have the requisite space we want to chase decent FA. Add favs to that and it only gets more convoluted.

We could extend Ricky this offseason at say 15M and get more space...

We could keep Dante and chance it that we could move him if we needed to clear space. Could also move Crowder to help with some room.

Let’s say we extend Ricky... does Dante want to stick around as a backup? I know many of you don’t care for him but he showed some great signs.

Do we roll with Ricky? Waive his caphold and hope we can fit him and a FA into our room... not like the pg market will get crazy for him.

There is an interesting dance there if you are of the belief that we want space in 2019.
What exactly is a cap hold and how does it work?
 
I doubt he has much of a market. He'll be here.
I am sure another team will make an offer. There are enough teams desperate for young talent that someone will pursue him. But I have no idea what the price is.

The only reason another team wont make an offer is if the league is well aware that whatever the offer is will be matched. Kind of like what happened to Mirotic last off season.

6-8 mill per at most is what I would expect. Lou Williams re-signed for 7 mill a year with the Clippers a few months ago. So that kind of showed what the market might look like this summer. There isn't a lot of cap space available around the league.
