I love it just because of the one name I don’t see on the roster…
For ****s and giggles.
-Mitchell for Rui, Reaves, JHS, and three picks.
-D'Lo walks for nothing in return.
-I'm assuming Reddish opts in, Hayes opts out.
-Not a fan of Drummond, but he's tall and rebounds.
-Re-signing Christie is a priority. I think ~$4M a year is fair, with potential to be a steal.
-Prince is meh, but he's a 6'7 sort-of two way wing.
-I like Watford as a gamble for the minimum.
-Yep, Bronny.
-One open roster spot for when February rolls around for a buy-out candidate.
Starters: AD, Bron, Vando, Christie, Mitchell (could sub Drummond/Wood for Vando?)
Bench: Drummond, Wood, Prince, Vincent
End of bench: Castleton, Watford, Reddish, Lewis, Bronny
Edit:
Just noticed the Total Salary is above the First Apron, which is a no-no. But I can fix that around the edges.
Ham's goofiness with Christie might've been a blessing in disguise in suppressing Christie's market (to go with being a restricted free agent). Miles McBride didn't play much before the Knicks-Raptors, but got a three year-$13M contract so that was my baseline comparison.The issue with this is, they either run out of money getting to Max Christie. Or are so close to the first apron, they'll have no room to move if they need to pivot during the season because they essentially make each guy significantly more valuable because of the money.
If they let DLo walk, it would need to be to get the full MLE. Because at that point, if you let DLo walk. AND you don't have the full MidLevel to replace him as a starter or have a really good bench guy. It's a real short rotation and I'll point out Donovan has missed 19, 15, 14, 27 games the last 4 years. On top of fingers crossed on Bron & AD staying fully healthy another year.
The end would likely be AR, Rui, JHS, 3 firsts. Let DLo walk, and can't keep Max for Donovan & whoever they can put in the MLE, splitting it between 2 guys even dilutes the well a bunch. That's a lot to have to fill.

Don't think the full MLE is available unless they can dump one of Vando or Vincent, but probably can't do that unless they attach a pick, which they wouldn't have in this scenario.
Maybe they can get Klutch to bring back Lonnie for depth purposes. Now that I look at it, Mitchell/Christie/Vincent/Lewis is thin in the backcourt. Prince can eat up minutes at SG too.

On the other hand, Max may want to bounce somewhere where he'll get an opportunity to get his stats up for the next pay day.

Yep, attacking close outs and decision making is what he needs to work on the most this summer.Max is an interesting player to me….
He shows some flashes of being a good defensive player, but he’s def not consistently there yet.
He shows signs of being a good 3pt shooter, but not much of a consistent ability to attack close outs.
I haven’t looked it up, but I feel like he probably has a lot of games where he had more turnovers than assists… questionable decision making, could be the game is still too fast for him at times.
Year 3 is where I expect to really see what kinda player he’s going to be.
