Free Agent Archie Goodwin cut by Phoenix

[RonBrewer]

would love to take a shot at this kid. Lots of upside. Still young

Agree, I remember seeing him in summer league a few years ago and thought he was going to be a star. Surprised he hasn't accomplished more in his time/gotten a bigger shot in Phoenix.

He'll get claimed by some team ahead of Portland imo

I'd be REALLY surprised if PHI doesn't claim him. They REALLY need guards and are under the cap floor. So adding his $2 million contract doesn't actually cost them anything. Plus, at 22, he's a good fit, age wise, with their young core.

Surprised PHO gave up on him.

Don't waived FA's work on a bid system?

If so there is no way he ends up making it to us, somebody will pay good money for him.

They have so many guards though, and even more so if they play Simmons as a ball handler similar to LBJ.

Goodwin is an Olshey type of acquisition. Get a former 1st Round pick on the cheap.
