"Veteran Avery Bradley has agreed to a contract with Golden State, The Athletic's Shams Charania and Anthony Slater reported Friday, citing league sources."
Cool for Bradley, but I was hoping that IT would get the position.
IT has been saying for two years he is great and can play at a level he did before the injury. Several teams teams have given him looks and he hasn't stuck. He also looked bad in a low level international tourney.
I think it might be time to accept, IT is done. Personally, I hate that because I love IT, but it might be time for him to look overseas or maybe go into coaching. I think we have seen the last of a truly special guy. And that sucks.
I think that's probably right. I mean, I guess I'm a little surprised that some bad non-playoff team hasn't given him a look, because he's the type of guy who can be highly entertaining for a fan base, and he's congenial with the media.
But, the fact that he hasn't been signed anywhere probably tells us all we need to know about his ability to play. Same thing with DMC, who I read is looking at China.
In an ideal world, at some point the G-League would operate like a true minor league, where we add rounds to the draft and allow teams could sign guys to minor league deals (but still have the right to call them up, similar to a 2-way contract). Maybe the revenue just isn't there, but I'd love to be able to see IT in Maine, with the Celtics owning his rights.
