Just in: The Milwaukee Bucks are waiving Damian Lillard and stretching the remaining $113 million on his contract

[Raquinotj]

Bucks never heard of a buyout or attaching picks to get rid of a player? Waving and stretching is literally the worst road PR wise and Basketball wise. There’s a reason why it’s very rare. They tied up $22 million of their cap space for the next 5 years

If Ben Simmons can get moved @ $40+ million so can Dame, ebn hurt.

 

[Armchair Militant]

I wouldn’t do all that for Turner

 

[AKM-95]

This is crazy story man. The Bucks pushed their chips in.

I will say I get it from miles perspective dude was rumored to be playing in a different jersey for years now so I can see him wanting to take control of his career..

 

[Nabs]

Yeah I remember a few teams doing some shyt like this and couldn’t get players because of the dead cap


Mozgov deng and in baseball Bobby Bonilla

Today is Bobby Bonilla day

I wonder if they felt like they were doing Dame a solid doing it this way. Now he gets to pick his next spot instead of ending up somewhere he doesn't want to be.

1. what picks?

2. Nobody wants a guy who can't walk at that kind of money.

Come to Miami Demon

 

[Left.A1]

could mean Giannis is leaving

That would make the deal even dumber

 

[ReggieFlare]

Uh oh

Giannis wanted to win one for Dame

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

Giannis and his team must have laughed off the “gap year” as it’s the only reason this decision makes sense.

With that being said, Dame could still get his Miami wish or whatever team he wants with Milwaukee footing the bill for him.
