    Yeah We'll see. I love his story and hope he does well. I just (probably more than anyone besides Lillard) wanted to see Elliot play. I thought he had the potential to be a star at the SG position (already has better handles and rack taking ability than Wes) with a few years of healthy play.

    Now he's more injury prone than Brandon Roy. And I will bet, that EVERY ounce of athleticism leaves him due to this injury. We all saw what happened to Nique...

    He will not be with the team next season I'll bet. His QO is 2.37MM next season:

    Luke Babbitt 2.90MM
    Jared Jeffries 1.54MM
    Elliot Williams 2.37MM
    Nolan Smith 1.42MM
    Sasha Pavlovic 1.39MM

    Their salaries = 9.62MM

    We will have 41.58MM of dedicated salary after those contracts are off of our books. With the Cap of at least 58.044 (probably will be just a bit higher next season) that gives us a little more than 16.46MM in cap room.
