I can’t believe how bad that contract is. And also another under talked about horrible contract is the Desmond Bane one.

But yeah FVV undersized, inefficient, defensively he’s ok, but WOW. 43,000,000 aav

I wouldn’t even pay Jrue holiday that much money per year

it's obviously a massive overpay but it's also short. Rockets wanted a veteran pg to help guide the young players so they took a short term hit while their young guys are on rookie deals. His deal will expire once Green/Sengun/Jabari/etc are up for extensions. They have to use the salary cap on someone.
