I´m also fascinated by the perception of Markkanen´s value. Is this a Euro thing?
23 year olds averaging 18/7 shooting nearly 50/40/90 will get paid for their potential alone. We gave Barnes 24 per year, averaging 11/5. Considering that we expect a post-COVID cap spike, I think that´s a fair deal.
Well...when you google Lauri Markannen
result 1: Less of Lauri Markkanen has been more for the Bulls
result 2: Stock down: Lauri Markkanen. Chicago doesn't see him and Vucevic as a long term fit next to each other.
I've been a fan of his also but I dont really see his fit next to KP for the Mavs to invest in him heavily. If they move KP, I'd definitely be more interested. He has one of the best looking shots I've seen for a big man.
