I'm struggling to understand Ivey. His injury should not have been debilitating, but he doesn't seem capable of getting downhill anymore and has been relegated to being a spot up shooter.
Maybe it's mental.
It's hard to make Nico look competent, but the Hawks did it. They turned Luka into 34 year old CJ and Corey Kispert.
Masterclass in asset mismanagement.
Sort of reading the tea leaves here. But that means they want something with lottery chances. So they probably won't value the Pistons picks very much.
Ivey's trade value will be higher this summer. It would have to be a sign and trade then, which would remove the contract variable and teams would be willing to offer more for him.
All NBA contracts become guaranteed on January 10th. But players must clear waivers before the 10th for it not to guarantee. That means they have to be cut by today.
The only two Pistons impacted by this are Green and Isaac Jones.
