Two restricted player left:
1. Jalen Duren and the Pistons still negotiating.. probably 34-40 M per year??
2. With Beal and Strus and having Dick in incoming trade, Mathurin will be on another team.. Bulls, Pelicans and Bucks are the primarily suitors..
I'm still awaiting DeRozan to be in Nuggets, Heat or Raptors for a vet minimum..
but Heat could lose the chance because they're awaiting Klay from Mavs for buyout or via trade..
Jonathan Kuminga is another Big name that could land in Lakers or TWolves via sign and trade..
If these names are already sign up, it's time to start the NBA..

Hate this for Pels. No way Brown is happy in NOLA. And to give up two 1sts on top of that.
