Charles Bassey, I suppose, could work if so. But i don't think it'll be anyone we're thinking of if it does happen.

By then they can, yeah. But I don't think that's where they'll go with it given the likely options. Who is going to both still be around by then who would be playoff eligible? I'd rather convert Harper, personally, than sign someone who probably won't play

I don't think there's a budget. Signing anyone will send them back over the tax. I think they'll just lean into Tatum at the five if Amari isn't playing well enough/injuries pile up

Missed most of the first half (DNW-wife's birthday), but glad I tuned in for JT caching fire.

My better half will watch the last few minutes of a game, but mostly doesn't watch sports. I've been granted special dispensation to keep the game on at her party, tho.

I can't believe how insensitive Jayson Tatum is choosing the date to return that he did knowing full well there wqs already a major event scheduled that night.

The nerve to return on my wife's birthday!
