This is a really tough situation for the team and Richaun to be in. He probably has zero trade value and we aren’t going to give up a first round pick to get out of his contract. The only place I could see him being traded is Indiana. They have the cap space to absorb him and maybe they think they can revive his career with Hali. Would they take 2 seconds? This years and a future? I didn’t look to see if they have an ender to trade back to us or not.
rumor has it Turner has turned down an extension, maybe they will need a back up center to stay competitive while getting value for Myles.
Holmes has next year and then a player option left on his contract. If you were him, would you agree to declining that option if it meant you could get traded this off-season? That’s a lot of money to turn down but on the other hand he is going to likely end up glued to the pine for the rest of his prime if he doesn’t. Such a good dude and great teammate, hate to see this for him. If he was willing to decline that option early ( not sure if that’s even possible) a trade becomes much more likely as he would be an ended next season. We really need that extra space this year as we won’t have it for the foreseeable future after.
