Ingles for leadership?

Such a different team when we can talk players into what we have going on. The Wolves have officially changed their reputation. I think that is the biggest gain in all of this. Kuminga may or may not be a great fit but what a colossal shift in how players in the league view our roster and organization. Great job TC.

Enough money to re-sign Donte next summer, or is that a problem for next year?

Will be a tight cap sheet next year. With that said Rudy might decline his player option for a cheaper long term contract again

He did sign a multi year deal in Australia

I will say, Kuminga does things Randle could only dream of...

Wolves were already hard capped at the 1st apron thus operating under 2nd apron rules due to that. Only difference with this move is our salary is actually over and into the 2nd apron tier so if not by end of the league calender year our salary is not lowered back into the 1st apron, our 2034 1st will be frozen. And the amount of luxury tax will be that much more amplified.
