You have to take into consideration the increase in cap though.

They have to spend that money.

It's not a terrible deal, LAKERS are jsut thankful he said yes.

The Lakers don't HAVE to spend money.  They could have saved it for next year.

e'twuan moore getting paid 10 million per season 

this is absolutely insane

Lakers: "How'd you like to come to LA

?"

Free Agent: "......and do what

Free agent point guard Brandon Jennings will work out for the Brooklyn Nets Friday morning at UCLA, according to a league source.

Gonna be a good value contract, hopefully they don't start him.

[g0lden]

per Woj's show...KD and Oladipo have been texting each other talking about playing together.  The KD hunt is over early.

I like the Lakers getting Mozgov for 65 mill.  that's like a 10 million per  contract in the old CBA for a skilled NBA center/starter.

 

[everysingletime]

Is Luol Deng a free agent?

 

[a-friend]

 The Lakers don't HAVE to spend money. 

but they do have to fill a roster

No it isn't.



That's very reasonable, he's a fine backup guard and most good backups will get 10 million.

You guys shouldnt be surprised at these contracts. Teams have money to spend and will spend it.

Is Luol Deng a free agent?

Yep, being targeted by Utah, I think he should give Minnesota a call.

Exactly, dudes didn't even read the diagram posted earlier.

I'm more surprised with the years
None of these guys are worth the long term commitment for now, especially Noah and Beal since they are injury prone now

True he's a pretty good shooter and a good defender
