    When you are dealing with chef Ime McHale, it doesn't really matter if you have second harvest from an Arby's dumpster or the finest ingredients on the planet, the end result will be garbage.

    Lonzo Ball is a big playmaking guard that plays defense. He's lost a step and his shot regressed but he would definitely help everyone else get better shots.

    If Stone wants to sign someone, which I highly doubt, I am not sure who he will cut to create a roster spot.

    Impossible to waive a player and sign someone due to the apron constraints. So there is 1 pro-rated vet-min spot we can offer. If a player clears waivers we can sign them.

    I think they will just convert JD Davison to a standard contract, that will fill the 15th spot, and we are stuck from there.

    Pointless to waive anyone. Anyone waived cannot really be replaced...
    We have a roster spot open, and can fill with 1 vet min level player.
