What is the expectations on Karlo Matkovic this offseason, BTW?

If he is already playing for Birmingham, the idea is that we likely sign him and he could be a key 4-5 for us.


Basketball Reference says he isn’t a high volume 3pt shooter but he does have some range and is hitting about 30% or so of them.


We'll sign him to a 3 year minimum deal like Jose & Naji.

I like Karlo, i think he can give us 8-10 minutes of athleticism and rim running at the center spot which we've needed badly.

Which would be nice, but I’m wondering how much leeway that gives us with regards to changing our starting center and backup bigs.

We either need to resign JV or replace him, and we likely need to replace Nance long term because of his injury issues.


Having Karlo and Robinson-Earl gives us at least some stopgap bigs on affordable contracts while we look to change our key guys.
