In the meanwhile they can explore trades - they can trade him for worse contract and assets, they can include him in a trade for a star with bunch of picks included. All of this is easier to do with Dragic than with Powell (or nothing).
I could agree for Markkanen from Chicago perspective, but New Orleans has a 17 million TPE. So Markkanen might be more inclined to sign with them for more money.
Seems like the Pels are way less loved than even the Mavs when it comes to free agent signings. Nobody wanted their money this summer. Not even THJ at an extra $14M. Can’t see Markkanen wanting to back up Zion and Jonas there.
