Also since Duren doesn't have as much room to improve naturally as some of the other pieces you should look to get him a mentor this season. Getting him a couple of defensive badges as the center should be a major priority. High upside draft picks will develop a lot of the badges naturally.
This isn't even a question, pay him. You have very few contractual commitments going forward with the only two better pieces being on rookie deals. See if you can get him long term on a flat contract or something, should be right around value towards the end of it.
@@backyardwrestler3122 I’d probably rather do a shorter term deal at that price. Maybe after a couple years his asking price will be down. His age could be a big factor in why he wants so much money.
I think we should keep jalen duren because has one thing that lots of players dont and thats efficency we should get rid of the backup center for more money and see where we go from there
Duran always ends up as a money sink. His defense, while rated high, never really seems to show up in game when needed. I would trade him at the draft for picks, grab Ellis and that massive Center from Spain to really get the ball moving around the court with two new playmakers/ball handlers to help with Green Light McKnight.

@@backyardwrestler3122 that was the plan this season but the mentors regression messed it up.
wooooo new episode!!
Been waiting and the new episode and it is delivered. Yes

Also, clear answer, with his center numbers bro, you 100% pay Duran. Easy decision. Build through him and your stud rookie
seems that's what the comment section wants. I'm still not sure at 35 mil unless he will take a shorter contract to get that money.

@@Slizezoko definitely efficient, can’t deny him that. And he’s great on the boards. Definitely a good starter, just not $35 mil a year good
@@fiendfranchise yeah
This is a hell of a generated draft class. Did you add some?
Yes Morris Sr. and Mayes are added from another 2K generated class
Mayes and McKnight backcourt would be insane defensively
Mayes isn't great defensively yet, but he's got a lot of potential to get there.
I say pay Duran. The contract is an overpay, but that won’t be a major issue until the rookies are up for new contacts
that part is true, as long as it's just a 3 year contract. It takes all our cap and limits mentor potential is the biggest drawback.
Wait how did booker and kd Get to the rockets
@@McDonalds280 gotta watch E12
This team has way too many holes to use a valuable pick on an area where we already have a very good player
@@backyardwrestler3122 can’t argue with that
you should look into trading up to get albert ellis a true playmaking point guard to pair with mcknight
I think if we don't get that pick in the lottery it'll be tough to convince a team to trade out of the pick. But maybe.

@@Odd_Thomas unfortunately I can’t trade Duren this year because he won’t have a contract with us. We could sign him and trade him next year though
We got cooked😅
