He's playing his way into his player option, which means we won't be able to trade him when we need to (draft time) nor free up his cap space. Crap.Yeah, Seth-/Maxi-money (maybe a bit north of that) or an extension shouldn't be on the table. I like his performances (he's been such a great surprise) a lot but we gotta keep the payroll in shape.
Actually, I wouldn't mind a THJ extension - for Seth money moving forward.
Sucks that we got suckered into the Powell-extension. That was the worst move, premature and overpaid the team-friendliest position in the market (non shooting big men). Delon wasn't great either, but he's at least available to play with decent stats (15+ PER, 38% from three, great ORTg/DRTg/NRTg, good TS%) combined with size and athleticism for his position. Should be moveable if needed to.
