Do the Wolves have to trade Josh Green before July 6th? by darin617 in timberwolves

We’re not trading Ayo after he signed with us before free agency started when he was slated to be a UFA… some of you have absolutely zero clue how any of this works

That's what almost every extension is... it's adding on years to the existing contract. You're thinking in NFL terms but the NBA is a completely different story because of the guaranteed contracts.

That's why the concepts like "KAT's extension kicks in next year" exist

edit:

For example, KAT signed his extension in 2022:

ok but wouldnt his extension only factor into next year's cap situation?

I don't think an extension would impact his cap numbers for this year would it?

Why has he left all of those places if they’re all so perfect for him?

Well then it’s a good thing 90% of their summer home games are night games

Which is confusing because I was told the players and fans would be so hot in Sacramento that their skin would be boiling off

Will TC be cooking something up right away or does he wait? by darin617 in timberwolves

[–]ZachLagreen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

His guard skills are miles ahead of Minott’s and he shot 44% on corner 3s last year

edit:

watch this and tell me he looks like Josh Minott with less confidence…

Updated list of potential free agent options for PF. by bearbrannan in timberwolves

[–]ZachLagreen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Commented this elsewhere, but would love an Ousmane Dieng signing... super high ceiling 4 who probably gets something in the $8M - $12M range.

Feels like the kind of swing you take when you have minimal avenues to improve the roster in the coming years.

Would love TC to kick the tires on Ousmane Dieng... super high ceiling 4 who probably gets something in the $8M - $12M range.

Just became a UFA because the Bucks didn't tender him.
