The Clips want another $30 million+ player in street clothes to keep PG and Kawhi company?

He’s crazy. They can still stay under the second apron this season.

Where they stand now -

F Durant | Tucker (UFA), Wainright (UFA), Bazley (RFA)
F ??? | Craig (UFA), Okogie (UFA), Ross (UFA)
C Ayton | Landale (UFA), Biyombo (UFA)
G Booker, Payne | S. Lee (UFA)
G Beal | D. Lee (UFA)

Jones needs to get his shit together over the summer and actually find a bench this year. They need to add at least one or two players (at PG and PF) who can actually be relied on to contribute. And they won't have much money, so it's going to take some work.
Tucker?

I know you wouldn’t like this Jeremy, but I’d trade Ayton for pennies right for cap purposes lol :shock:
They’re not going to do that, though.

Tucker's got an $11 million option he's have to opt out of to sign for the minimum.

But when you get down to it, a P.J. Tucker-type is exactly what they should be looking for.

What are the realistic Ayton deals now??
Ayton/CamPayne for Robert Williams, Malcolm Brogdon, and Payton Pritchard.

I just found out that Payne is only guaranteed $2M if waived before June 29.

After watching this, I’m convinced Ayton will be moved.

There is definitely risk here for the Suns. Beal is owed an ungodly amount of money. There is no guarantee that the Beal-Booker backcourt can even work. And Frank Vogel looks like an odd fit with this super team.

HOWEVER

1. We're finally done with Chris Paul.
2. Kyrie isn't coming here.
3. Shamet is gone.

Congratulations to the Wizards for making the worst trade in NBA history.
Beal had all of the leverage. You can't call it the worst trade in NBA history when he had a no-trade clause and could dictate all of the terms of the deal.

We now have 3 supermax players. On one team. :shock: Plus a max player.

(Technically, Booker's not on the supermax contract for one more year...)

EDIT: The 3 supermax players will be making a combined $162M in 2025-26.
