[MacMahon] I did hear some concerns from folks with the Suns about that Ayton trade… and it was about the other guy they gave up in the deal. They loved Toumani Camara. (alien.top)

Is this more of an indictment on Ayton or simply high praise for Camara? The 52nd pick in this year’s draft is coming off an up and down preseason in which he put up 7 ppg on 72 TS%.

Starting at about 15 minutes into The Hoop Collective.

Prospect hugging is the best. Next guy is “gonna be great!”

This. Jazz have three first rounders this season and it's going to be fun overrating the shit out of all of them this season.

with how much money they're paying for their top end, losing really cheap rookie contract guys that they're paying peanuts for is huge though.

If a second round guy turns into an ok bench player, that's a huge loss for them. They're paying someone like that a little over 1m this year.

Vet min contracts are partially subsidized by league aren't they?

[–] SPAREustheCUTTER@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, most of the salary is subsidized by the league and I believe it doesn’t count towards cap space either.
