    If u think that u can get something for him and can bring in a mid-level or better pg - cool...

    Ow i'd let him play out his last year... I wouldnt want to tack on any additional years until we see how he comes back... and it would prob provide a good incentive for him to do well...

    Who else do you hold bird rights on that you can do that with?

    The answer is nobody.

    U cant extend Fred when he hasn’t given us a good season since 2023 and is now coming off ACL surgery in his 30’s. Attach a 2nd to him and send him to a team in need of a culture. Hell send him back to TO. We should be able to move Fred on an expiring deal.
