2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

[DanSchwartzgan]

These are my arguments to get him. His contract is lower and year shorter than THJ, last year also not fully guaranteed. He is not injured, so he helps now. He would not cost an asset to bring. He can be used in a trade in the summer as well as THJ, probably easier, as he is owed less money. 

I see him as bench PG, playing something like 20 minutes per game. Not closing.

This is my thinking also.  If you are sending out injured THJ, you have to send him to a team that doesn’t care about winning this season.  Washington fits that.  Bench PG is the role and is arguably a bigger need than what THJ provides.

One more thing to add about contract length.  He’s only partially guaranteed in 23-24 if he plays under a certain number of games this season and next.  He could turn $23mm in salary into $10mm at next year’s TDL.
