Yes. My guess is they’re working the details out now, but I have to have some agreement. Otherwise the kings would’ve been better off just letting the market dictate his price as a restricted free agent.

Thanks for clarifying with precise details.

Somebody should correct me with if I’m wrong on this, but it’s my understanding that we can only extend for one season making Keon Ellison unrestricted free agent at the end of next season. Whereas if we don’t offer an extension but make a qualifying offer. He becomes a restricted free agent...

I’m sure the advanced stats will proof the eyeball test wrong but from my viewpoint Keon’s defense makes all the difference in the world in the starting lineup. I love monk, but you can’t put him out there with two guys that don’t play defense one guy that’s a bit handicapped and only one hard...
