    I am surprised that Phoenix did not demand him in a trade since his dollars were not guaranteed.

    Unless we already have a FA target declining that option seems like a mistake to me. His contract is uniquely structured and could net some assets in a trade tbh.

    They're not going to waive him until the last minute. They'll hold out to see if any trades present themselves, however unlikely.

    I kinda grown to like Jock, especially after hearing him doing that Aussie podcast.

    At least we didn't just trade him to nowhere, he will definitely get a vet min offer somewhere.

    They're cutting the team leading .423% shooter from three??:D

    Jock was actually good in his role. He was a decent "platoon" center to Adams. That's actually a key role, because cannot count on Adams for extended games & minutes. This might be more important to refill than it looks

    So if this makes Jabari the 3rd center.. time to fill in the 3rd 4 spot with the other Oceania guy

    Give N'Faly Dante a chance to grab that 3rd string role. I liked the energy he brought in the few times we saw him.
