Only 6 guys last year got deals over $25 mil a year. And only 1 of those signed with a new team. Brunson w the knicks. Does Russell westbrick resign w the flippers for $15 mil? I can’t see him being worth more than that.
how about deangelo Russell? Isn’t he more of a spot up shooting poorer defensive player version of Russell? Grossly overpaid at $31 million a year?
maybe it’s just me but I see both of them being worth about $15 million.
Westbrook is probably worth a mid-level exception, about $9-$10m.
I hope the Lakers can keep DLo Russell if they can work out a better deal, something like $100m, 4years or $80, 3 yrs. Cap is going up so that deal is not what it was 10 years ago.
Ps Austin reaves and Dillon brooks are also available.
reaves as a second round pick is a rfa. Someone might try to pry him loose with $20 mil a year. And like Alex Caruso the laker scouting might go to waste. I see them letting Russell go and signing reaves.
dillon brooks has value as a 3 and d guy and guess who needs him? Sacramento. Who also has cap space if they want it. I bet Dillon can get $20 million
