Phoenix waived and stretched $22M worth of Nas Little, which gives them more flexibility while being above the second apron. Can the Bucks do this with Pat?
The Phoenix Suns are waiving forwards Nassir Little and EJ Liddell, per sources. By releasing both, the Suns open up a roster spot and create flexibility for signings and trades during the season. Suns will stretch the three years and $22 million remaining on Little’s deal. pic.twitter.com/UTsuimA2yX

I don’t know every NBA money rule, but we know that no one is eating Pat’s $9.4M, AND he’s got a player option next season too if I’m not mistaken. We also don’t have the picks to attach to entice a team to do so. So does waiving and stretching that money make sense if it opens up a 15th spot we can use on a wing defender. Someone even like Nas Little?
Don’t get me wrong here – Pat is beyond cooked. But does doing this afford us an opportunity to get better in any way? I’d rather have Pat closing out way too hard and taking elbows to the face for a few minutes a game than some random who gets 0 PT
bro it feels like we literally just got done paying Leuer and Larry Sanders lmao don’t put that devil on us again
Mannnn…gotta get rid of Pat to do this. Simply because this is turning into Portland 2.0. We got Dorell Wrights little brother. Pat. Scary Gary. At least we got rid of Robin. Shit’s nuts lol
You could. Is it smart to do? No.
Bye! Good riddance. Would be about two years too late.
