He’s properly rated in comparison to his contract size. He’s a bit overpaid, but when healthy he’s still a super productive offensive weapon. But I’m sure the real reason his market is so small is due to the new second apron rules. If they weren’t so punitive, Zach would probably already have been traded to a contender.

I think teams are more score of the second apron than they are of Zach.

Some team with cap like the Jazz can/should take him and rehab his value and trade next offseason when he proves his health and value again all while only have 2 years on the deal left which is more manageable.

Some genuinely terrible arguments in this article. But hey, I hope GMs read this and believe it lol.

Missed games (recently) and high pay for a 3rd option.
Also doesn’t his trade kicker go against our cap? That has to make it even harder to trade him knowing Zach ain’t waiving that shit for a team like Detroit when he was rumored to have taken optional season ending injury just to avoid being traded there. Matching salaries will be difficult.

I bet Zach would restore his value by coming back healthy and contributing to winning basketball

Is this idiot seriously asking *why* Paul George is getting paid and how nobody wants LaVine?

No he isnt because his contract hasn’t changed.
He is *overpaid* not underrated. That’s his biggest issue and it happens all the time in the NBA, ask Nic Batum.

He’s a 3 who flashes a 2 at best. And the league knows this

The shade he’s gotten this offseason could lowkey be good for him in the long run. I’d like to see him play with more of a chip on his shoulder, especially on defense.
