That means immediately after the 2021 draft, we can trade all our future picks. Furthermore Bledsoe has a partial guarantee for 2022/2023 of $3.9M on a $19.4M salary, so he is also a very valuable salary-matching asset.
Unless they think they have a shot at some major player like DeRozan or legit young talent like Markkanen or Collins, this would be a fantastic use of the James Johnson expiring.
Bledsoe immediately makes us a better team, too.
