Rob's contract extension would be $8 million the first two years and $9 million in the third year. Pelicans do this to just add draft capital, could probably turn those seconds into a first.
Blazers need a more reliable backup big next year as much as i have loved Rob this season. Saddiq Bey is also just a great backup forward, maybe the Pelicans would ask for more honestly.
Blazers rotation next season:
Dame / Scoot / Blake
Jrue / Shaedon / Krejci
Deni / Saddiq / Matisse
Toumani / Jerami / Cissoko
Clingan / Missi / Hansen
Who says no?
