That´s how we reach decisions 30 seconds into the official free agency window. I don´t see a reason why Oubre would want to leave or why the Suns would want him to leave. They have no cap pressure either.(05-02-2020, 04:40 PM)Mavs2019 Wrote: The Suns have plenty of time to negotiate an extension beforehand and a lot of capspace themselves.
Oubre is not extension eligible. Carry on.
You want to get rid of Wright, you look for a bad contract in the $15-24M range that is expiring in 2021. That way you can package Wright´s deal with Boban and the expiring contract of Jackson. Saves the other team a few millions next year. It´s not that easy. Few canidates are Batum, Dieng, Exum, J. Johnson, and Portis.
Another interesting name is DeRozan. Spurs miss the play-offs. Pop retires. DeRozan is an expiring 32 year old in 2021. Wonder how much the Spurs can demand for him. Also how much he´d want for his last big contract extension. Would he be willling to sacrifice some money to play for a legit contender for the next four years? When DeRozan is your 3rd best player you are in very good shape, when he could be your 4th best player you are a legit title contender.
