The Lakers are increasingly confident they can sign free agent Bruce Brown Jr. for the non-taxpayer midlevel exception starting at a projected $12.4 million, sources tell jovanbuha. More intel on NBA free agency:
three-year, $60 million contract extension
However, I will refrain from dunking on this particular contract until I see A) the totality of what Chicago ends up doing this summer, and B) how much of Vučević’s deal ends up being guaranteed, which is rarely reported at the outset of a signing leak. In Vučević’s case, the Bulls would have had to renounce the rights to Vučević, Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu and Derrick Jones Jr. just to get far enough under the cap to sign a contract in the range of the one to which Vučević agreed., their other realistic alternatives were Christian Wood, Dwight Powell and Mason Plumlee.
Unlike most extensions, Vučević’s contract can be traded in July because his salary did not increase by more than 5 percent in the extension , and the extension is not for more than three years. Thus, Chicago lost none of its optionality to make an upgrade on the trade market if one becomes available, and could use Vooch’s estimated $18 million in 2023-24 as a salary match.
