    i guess it's probably smarter for him now not to opt out at the end of the year

    That injury would definitely suck for his chances to move to a better team/situation. But he has a player option for this very thing. He'll make $14m next year in rehab, now. That will put him at $120m for his career, to date.

    It sucks for competing and playing the game. But I'm not going to lose any sleep over him losing out on one of those crazy $20m/yr contracts, especially after he road a Max contract for 5yrs previously.

    How terrible must Sacramento feel for not moving him weeks ago when he asked for a trade?

    Now they are STUCK.

    BLOW IT UP...

    This reminds me of the 2013 Kobe injury.

    Torn Achilles is a killer injury. His prime is probably over. Better opt in for that $14 million now.

    Sucks for Gay but that just means a few less houses being built without his chucked bricks
