Crazy they wouldn’t try and get something for him as I think they would still attempt to shell out the contract he’ll be asking for if his season continues the way it does. Maybe they believed that if they retain him for the year they have a better chance at keeping his services as, I’m sure like many have said in this thread, any team he was traded to would be looking at securing an extension immediately after a trade.
If that is the case, can we expect an extension in the coming weeks? A failed attempt at that would surely mean he’s out the door come season’s end…
