If you select him off waivers you pay his contract. Once he clears waivers, he is essentially a free agent. I believe since his other team is on the hook for his contract, that he will be signing a vet minimum deal. We were discussing that possibility with CP3. He couldn't clear waivers, have us pay his salary, then sign for $30 million elsewhere.
What is the time period to clear waivers?
It's 24 or 48 hours. It's relatively short.
Huh. Who would actually trade for him? Golden State? Portland? Houston I suppose.
Houston is the only one that makes sense. Harden can't play with Lillard, and I can't see him fitting in with Curry, either.
Good point. That same rumored deal for Ayton kind of makes sense for them if they are trying to make one last push. Well probably not Zubac, but they have other contracts to move.
If you trade for Ayton, you are in theory saying Zubacs isn't good enough for you. That's why I am skeptical of this.
Clips are in a different position than us. For them getting a scoring center makes sense since they have to expect Paul and Kwahi will miss a ton of games.
BOTH!
I’d be so pissed if I was a Blazers fan at this point.
IDK, I know we won't win poo with the Mercury with DT still there, but I am NOT pushing her out! You only get so long to admire greatness. Just sit back and enjoy Dame. Soon he will not be playing, and you will be going, "Damn! I wish he could play just one more year!"
48 hours
I don't think Cuban is letting him out of Dallas!
