S&T players minimum have to be 3 years. Can be 4.
This 2/25 for Kyle is what he would get in Free agency.
These are not to be conflated.
If Miami or Philly or Lakers S&T Lowry it’d be for 3 yrs min…
Media is conflating the two. There two very different on-ramps.

Christian Wood S&T 3 year deal…Matthew Dellavedova S&T (inexplicably 4 yr deal) lol…
Magicman says
Steve Nash 2.0 vibrations all over this scenario. Nope.
LakerTom says
Good point, Sean. Thanks.
That actually helps because the Lakers could probably get him to agree to a 3- year $60 million deal, which makes it easier to handle the hard cap. $20M/year vs. $25M/year.
Jamie Sweet says
Honestly I don’t see Lowry being the guy to elevate this team. The grainy truth here is that, barring cooperation from the likes of Schroder, Gasol, Harrell et al we’re stuck with this roster for the most part. Need to hit some vet minimum gold, 2 way gold and maybe even draft gold. Any/all of the above is just as likely as finding a perfect S&T scenario.
3 years and what if Lowry’s decline this season wasn’t just the result of being shut down because the playoffs were playoffs were out of reach? Like magicman said: Nash 2.0.
