Seems like given the price we paid to get DSjr it would be illogical to not give him more time unless there is an MRI that would change the circumstances.
If Frank is indeed trade bait would he be more valuable as a prospect to a team if he was extended?
If he is not valuable as a prospect he is salary cap fodder and would be traded without an extension. I don’t see that as a likely scenario.
Nalod expects both players to be given extensions. We have an illogical roster at the moment and perhaps a trade might clear it up. Movement of either Frank, Dot, or Trier would not surprise me.
I wonder if Trier is the player grumbling for minutes. If what we are reading about holding the ball is an issue and defense are issues the lack of traits don’t favor him.
Dot is a big body guard with good handle, good defensive presence, a so so finisher and streaky shooter. RJ Barrett similar but 6 years younger. Dot coming off shoulder surgery. His status and position not he team is murky to me.
I think extension was mentioned to given or not by Wednesday’s first game.
For that matter Dot or Trier could get waived unless a draft pick comes back. Knicks might want to pick up a player waived they like.
I’m not predicting. I’m discussing.
