I'll go with B


I'll miss this dude, we probably won't be the team to pay him. Depending on exactly where the number falls, we should at least consider it.

He's good in his role, an absolute steal and great value.

If we are paying Trey Murphy, we won't be the team paying Naji.

Something has got to give at some point.

Don't see Naji getting that many years on a deal. I would guess something like 2/8.

More than this team can afford. Hoping he has value as part of a trade if we make any.

I think Naji is going to get a pay raise next year, and he has earned it. It won't be crazy, maybe a 3/15-type of deal, but that could have significant tax ramifications for the Pels. As such, I'll be surprised if he is on the roster for the '24 season.

He'd be a great sweetener at the deadline. Pains me to type that, though.

E) 2/12

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Naji back on a minimum deal though. Kelly Oubre averaged over 20ppg last year and had to settle for a minimum deal, and with the new tax rules I don’t see many teams that would throw alot of money out there.

I think he gets the Tax MLE, which is around 2/15. I don’t think any team is using cap space on him.

we won’t be able to keep Naji. It sucks but Trey has to be the priority.
