I kind of see why we just picked up the option instead. While extending him later is not a guarantee, this moves definitely gives us more cap space to maneuver and might be do a sign and trade for guys like Kunminga.
any cap expert out there that can educate us on the impact of decline the option and re-sign vs current situation? This feels like a cap move to me of not declining the option.
Lavine never seemed to be in the right mindset after he traded to here, not sure it’s the family issue or still adjusting the reality of playing for the kings.
