    Did you not see also his ambidextrous touch around the rim same as LaRavia and being able to handle a bit putting it on the floor? Oops forgot … you’re not interested / don’t have the time to check these two really nice players out.

    merging with the hayes news--did we have to dip into an exception to do this? i feel like the answer is yes because it's three years, right?

    do like seeing team option and not player option!

    I believe this is the new second round contracts that were launched last year, they call it the "second round exception". There are two options for signing draftees, you can sign them to either a 3 year deal where the third year is a team option or a 4 year deal where the fourth year is a team option. Bronny got one last season, a 4 year deal with the fourth year being a team option.

    No. Full stop.

    :ADnaughty:

    The guy is put together with his NBA ready build. Can't wait to see him out there in pre-season. "AI" is even excited. :D

    "Adou Thiero is listed at 6-foot-8 (2.03m) tall and 220 lbs (100kg). His wingspan is 7'0", and his standing reach is 8'8.5". While his vertical jump was measured at 41 inches in 2022, some reports suggest he may have reached 46 inches during training.
    Here's a more detailed breakdown:
    • Height: 6'8" (2.03m)
    • Weight: 220 lbs (100kg)
    • Wingspan: 7'0"
    • Standing Reach: 8'8.5"
    • Reported Vertical Jump: 41 inches (with potential for 46 inches)"

    46 inch vertical?Ooowee!! That's elite tier springs. If he can tighten up his handle, he has some possibilities here.
