Andy Miller, who also represents Wizards Michael Ruffin and Anthony Peeler, has had conversations recently with Wizards president of basketball operations Ernie Grunfeld and is confident something is about to be done. Jeffries, the 11th pick of the 2002 NBA Draft, is scheduled to earn approximately $1.5 million this season. In his option season (2005-06), Jeffries will be paid approximately $2 million. </div> Source
I really do not think we need him, he has been nothing but horrible for us. Yes, he may bring energy and hustle off of the bench, but his shot selections are horrible, he gets beat up by all power forwards and thrown around by most SFs, he is an offensive liability, his Defensive game is sub par..I think he needs a new team, he wont be a big loss if his extension is not picked up.
I think he is a good player, but 2 million is over-kill. Unless he really steps it up there is no way he should be picked up. He will never be better than an ok player. He was a wasted pick IMO.
