Fedor: Keep an eye on Tim Hardaway Jr. to the Cavs



Fedor says during a recent [episode of the Wine and Gold Talk podcast](https://open.spotify.com/episode/0Fp3OXv2H2HlLgTwjyzEYy) that “the name that I would watch would be Tim Hardaway Jr. of the Dallas Mavericks.” (around 32:30)

Notable quotes:

“ELITE outside shooter who can play the 2 and the 3, defends well enough.”

“Hardaway Jr’s salary structure is one that is problematic for Dallas moving forward and I think they would be willing to move off his salary.”

Question for everyone:

**What is Chris talking about?**

His 22-23 stats:

* 35.7% 3PM (97th in the league behind Aaron Nesmith)
* 50.7% eFG (104th)
* 53.6% TS (152th and well below league average)

When we’ve been saying that the Cavs need help on the wing, I don’t think we were envisioning that that they’d look at another overpriced inefficient shooting guard.

For those interested, here is his salary information:

​

|22-23|23-24|24-25|
|:-|:-|:-|
|19.6m|17.9m|16.2m|

What do you all think? This seems like a bad idea.

    He’s probably a better fit than Caris (assuming that’s who we give up) but taking on that contract seems dumb

    There is almost no logic in picking up THJR givin what we have to offer. He’s a slight upgrade over vert (maybe) but would cost another contract or 2 also. Kevin for him and something else jus doesn’t do it for me either.
