I am wondering why Vanvleet rejected the $22.8M player option contract and behind that, it's making everyone think that there are already some talks with other teams for his contract. And that's for sure when he's needed by some other teams that's trying to scout him out.
LeBron James: Mavericks
Hmmm, three superstars then if Kyrie will stay with them. I don't think that this is going to be effective, LeBron should give it on for the other young bloods to have their own fame and he'll just be there to support. IIRC, he wants to play with his son together so how long does he need to wait for that to happen?
Or simply he just want to get out of Toronto simply as that, and be on a new team that will renew and motivate him to win another ring. Just like what Lowry did when he get out of Toronto after a big win, and he almost did it with the Miami Heat. And probably Van Vleet might have another team in his mind already and willing to sacrifice a pay cut just to be with that team. Yeah, for sure Kyrie might opt to get out and move to Lakers, but if Lebron is also going out then I doubt that Kyrie will seriously to to LA though.
