https://www.spotrac.com/news/2024-nba-contract-guarantees-to-watch-2113/ All contracts become guaranteed Jan 10. To clear waivers, you have to cut Jan 7th. Brown may be waived too.
guessing the back end of the roster will be pretty fluid coming up. reath, mays, badji, the dead salary of evan fournier…
yeah, if Brown becomes guaranteed, that's a 2.1M hit on the cap (according to Spotrac) and Portland is only 3.5M under the tax. If they convert Reath to a guaranteed minimum contract, the cap figure is 1.98M. But, it's more than 1/3 into the season so the actual hit to the cap could be around 1.2M...I'm guessing
Yes. Teams can start signing players to 10 day contracts. After the trade deadline, we can sign for the rest of the season if desired. I do not think we will miss either.
Alot of mental gymnastics that I am not going to do until after the trade deadline. Just glad we have more flexibility with these two moves and could gain more.
This makes me think they have a trade lined up with a better backup pt guard in the package. Mays to me was the perfect 3rd string pt guard
...who they'll likely be able to pick up again after he clears waivers. I doubt this signals an upcoming trade STOMP
Moses Brown started and had 11 rebounds in 14 minutes playing time in the 130-113 win at home over Sacramento.
