However, Toronto hopes to re-sign Mensah-Bonsu to a 10-day contract if he clears waivers. Mensah-Bonsu's contract required the Raptors to make a decision this week, with the remainder of his $825,497 salary becoming guaranteed if he appears on the team's roster beyond Jan. 5.
It was not that they didnt want him but they wanted "roster flexibility" with You-Know-Who gone he may be able to come back and give us some shot blocking ability
I would really like him on the bench for instant energy BUT until Tracy is gone or the deadline passes I'd be suprised to see a roster move as it might hurt the flexibility they do have.
We still need the flexibility for Tracy right? How many people are on our roster right now, 14? Even if it's 13, we could easily need to take on 3 players to match Tracy's huge contract.
He brought great energy from the bench the seldom time he did see minutes but we already have enough of that don't we? I'd think so. Mikey Harris doesn't even say PT so why would Pops?
send pops to china shanghai shark may be a good option for him,make a call to boss yao . come on guys
It was a premature move on the rockets part to waive him so quickly... I like him for some insurance... Stupid Brian cook and his stupid contract.
I second the Wafer over Pops move. DA is improving enough to be the garbage minutes man. We don't need Pops.
