Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[Smitty]

I have suggested that De Larra's fastest way to find success might be as an off-ball, secondary kind of guy, and I believe he has the stand still shooting percentages and size to slot into a role like that (Christie's backup?) pretty seamlessly. Just speculation on my part. 

But, to your point, he has a 4-year deal, so there's no doubt in my mind they have at least a tentative idea of a long term role for him, and it probably does involve playing on-ball. I think he's going to get opportunities for minutes right away, somehow.

I promise I was typing as you were, I'm just slow. I could have just copy/pasted this to save time.
