Well, clearly DAL doesn't see Franc as a PG:
Luka is the functional PG. Brunson a young quality backup. Also Trey Burke and Tyrell Terry.
I assume Franc is mostly SG injury insurance, and available in case Sterling Borwn or Josh Green aren't up for the task. Hard to see Franc getting minutes without injuries or those two underwhelming.
Tim Jr, Bullox and Funky-Smith will take up most of the wing minutes.
Though team could go smallball if/when KZ is enfeebled.
Aaron Gordon for $22M per? Seems to be making a career out of having potential and almost ready for a break out. Good energy guy, very athletic, not always making smart plays or focused enough. Can he impact winning? Maybe it'll work with DEN not asking too much of him. But then is he worth $22M ...
Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder
Aaron's stats don't jump out at you like Evan's.
But look who he will teamed with in Denver?
Nikola Jokic, Michael Porter, Jaamal Murray
Gordon and Jeff Green give them depth at SF/PF.
Gordon just turned 26.
Evan Fournier $17,142,857 $18,000,000 $18,857,143
$19,000,000 [Team Option]
Julius Randle $21,780,000 $26,136,000 $28,226,880 $30,317,760
$32,408,640 [Player Option]
As for the Dallas Half Knicks?
Porzingis
Bullock
Hardaway
Ntilikina
Burke
Harper [Jared]
Yes, Dallas is pretty deep at PG/SG.
However, not so much at the wing, where Frank could spell Bullock at SF.
We know about Bullock's D, and his catch and shoot pedigree on the Knicks, where while I am sure we wanted to make Reggie an offer, while we were sealing the deal on Fournier, who is more proactive in creating his own offense at SF, Bullock went to Dallas, where camping out in his accustomed corner Toll Booth as Doncic breaks down the defense, Reggie could be good for 15-18 a night easy. And if Frank gets 15-18 minutes a night, for defensive matchups, let's recall that Frank in limited minutes with the Knicks hit 23-48 3-Pointers, mostly from that corner spot, which is a .479% clip over less than ten minutes a night over 33 games.
Dallas does not have much depth at Wing/Small Forward. In the era of Small Ball/Positionless Hoops, Frank will have a chance to remake himself, in what promises to be three-four guard sets.
