So I follow Larry Sanders on IG and the following two pictures are from videos from his his "IG Story"

No big deal right, WRONG second video he confirms he had a workout with an NBA team today and it went well but wouldn't say which team

However just a couple hours earlier he posted a video in Boston

Second

There are so many worse players to take a flyer on than Sanders. I would happily drop one of five players on our roster to sign him today. To for the find!

As soon as you make a 3 for 1 trade, the team will have room on their roster.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

I have a feeling this is why we are seeing Young play more, get a pick and some cash and make room for Sanders.

He's been away for a long time, Jordan was gone for a season and a half and he was really rusty. But good thing is, Sanders just has to worry about rebounding, blocking shots and anything else would be a huge bonus.

We are not getting a pick for Young.  Not even from Doc.

James Young should ready himself to be waived. Nice detective work, TP!

With several teams still under the salary floor, odds are good he'd be claimed, no? Seems like we could very easily cut bait with no repercussions.

He says why am I soft in the middle now

The rest of my life is so hard"

Larry Sanders could go a long way toward finding the cure to what ails this team's rim protection issues when we match up against the elite. Hop aboard big fella!

Confirmed by Keith Smith is all I can see. In the past he's "reported" things shockingly shortly after they've popped up in other places. I'm not saying he lifted that from here, but I'd say there's certainly a chance.

Correct.  We might give up a late 2nd to trade Young if we felt we needed the cap room to sign Sanders (wouldn't want to gamble on someone not claiming him if we needed the space), but even that shouldn't be an issue, since we have the room exception, and having been out of basketball for a couple of years, even that seems too much for him.
