Restricted Free Agents to Pursue

Zeke Nnaji got 4/32… which seemed aggressive but maybe his value gets a bump if he’s a full rotation player…

McDaniels and IQ going down to the deadline… interesting.
 
Right now it seems like all the questionable players are extending at prices that are more than they are worth, but is a solid value bet for their franchises. So both sides are happy.

Seems like Okoro would be in that group who should probably take what he can get in an extension, but does Cleveland want to commit money?

Cleveland is in a bind money wise. Okoro likely to see his playing time drop if he isn't improved... if he is then they pay him next year imo. Would guess he goes into next year.

I think if guys like IQ and McDaniels aren't around Vassell money then they should wait. Minny will regret not locking up Jaden if they can get him for 30M a year-ish. Can absolutely see someone getting wild with him next year.
 
Everyone playing nice in the Quickley situation and saying the right things. What happens when Quickley has $120M waiting for him, but not from the Knicks? If I was his agent, I would not go into my contract season without a deal + coming off the bench in what will likely be a lesser role than last year. NYK already got his replacement!
 
I think if Ainge had any interest at all in Okoro he would've grabbed him instead of Agbaji in the Don deal. Smaller, 6'-4" defensive only guards don't have alot of value. I'd rather just use Dunn or THT in that spot since both can dribble the ball. To this point Hardy hasn't really used any guards who can't dribble or be playmakers which might be a reason Agbaji has been playing forward in the preseason. Okoro can't shoot either unless he's left wide open in the corner.

Okoro is in that really ****** spot where he is good, but not good enough for any team to give him what it takes to be worth it in RFA, so he will just end up getting super low-balled by Cleveland.
