tear of a hamstring during practice. That needs to be a long rehab, I believe.
Sadly I knew who this was about before even opening the tweet. Therefore I also question whether that long-term Kleber contract actually has any positive trade value. It probably has neutral value due to the manageable salary and his on-court production, when healthy. But due to his deteriorating health, it´s probably not viewed as a positive asset around the league. As a semi-expiring deal it had a lot more value to make that big splash trade you desire. Those are all small details that add up, when you don´t have a coherent long-term strategy. Brunson at $25M, Dorian at 54/4, Kleber and Bullock on semi-expiring deals plus a few picks could get you a star. Now I just don´t see it.
