Free Agency
Prior to the free agency period we secured a trade with the Milwaukee Moose that helped to further expand the defensive presence in our front court:
SEA: SF Chris Singleton <> MIL: PF Larry Sanders; 2014 R2P
Chris Singleton is a talented player but we are simply too deep at small forward (especially if we are able to resign Tobias Harris) – Larry Sanders is an impressive defensive talent who should be an excellent option off of the bench.
PG Nick Calathes (2yr/$2,000,191)
Calathes will probably see a lot of playing time in the developmental league but he is capable of stepping up to the bench if needed.
SF Tobias Harris (2yrs/$4,344,010)
Harris was a solid defender last season and has developed into a leader on the bench; he is a versatile player who has had success playing at both forward positions.
PF Kenyon Martin (1yr/$2,085,100)
Martin is a veteran player with a decent defensive skill set – he should be valuable as a vocal leader and a mentor to the younger players in our front court.
C Josh Harrellson (1yr/$2,750,000)
Harrellson will have to continue to carry the weight at center while Nerlens Noel spends some time in the developmental league.
C Jeremy Tyler (1yr/$1,650,000)
Tyler is an excellent bench player who shared a lot of minutes with Harrellson last season.
