The Hawks have renounced the free agent rights to Ersan Ilyasova, Keith Smart of RealGM tweets. Ilyasova’s cap hold had been set at $12.6MM.
Atlanta’s front office has been busy today, already signing big man Mike Muscala to a deal, so it appears as though they could be hard at work mapping out their approach to the post-Paul Millsap era.
Having renounced Ilyasova’s Bird rights, they’ll no longer be able to bring him back without using an exception or their cap room.
The oft-underutilized 29-year-old played 26 games with Atlanta last year, his fifth club in two seasons, and will now find his way onto yet another roster in time for 2017/18.
Shoot. Does that mean we might be signing THJ? Or hopefully we are going after Noel
Was Ryan Kelly on the Rockets or did that trade never happen because he was not involved in the CP3 trade?
That trade happened and he just wasn’t used.
Kelly was with the Rockets. That trade did happen. His inclusion here was an error. We’re just really used to saying “Hawks waive Ryan Kelly.”
They’re clearing cap for THJ or KCP.
Pardon my ignorance but who is THJ
Tim Hardaway Jr.
I can never understand why he never catches on with a team He’s a great player – tough, and with a high motor.
He seems quite aloof, and doesn’t seem to interact much with teammates when I’ve watched him… Maybe he’s a bit of a non-presence, rather than the leader some teams would hope him to be
I thought THJ went back to Knocks
Knicks
I’m with you on his jbl. I can’t understand why teams trade him like he’s toxic. I like what I see from him
Can Ersan replace Zaza on the Warriors? Is he big enough to play center? I know we can shoot a little and he’s about 6:10.
Not a center. But warriors don’t use a center anyways.
hes a dead ringer for richard ramirez..and i agree is quite often is under appreciated..
