Thuney is around one more year with an eye on Nourzad potentially replacing him in 2026.

Ride out the last year of his deal and replace him in 26?

Possibly with Suamataia. Possibly with someone not yet on the roster.

Really nice get.

I mean a similar pedigreed OT who was healthy all season probably costs $18+ million. Even pro-rated and if all the incentives hit we got him for half that and he should be at full speed for the post-season.

Really nice resource management from Veach.

What percentage of your approval of this move is because of his name?

Either could be moved to G later if they really don't develop.

Somebody's gotta play guard.

Morris will easily be better at that than Nourzad next year.

Bringing back Trey Smith just has to be a complete non-starter at this point. He has these streaks every year and he's just not a great pass protector. This isn't the right team for him.

Oh don't think the thought hadn't crossed my mind....

A solid 23%.

This is kinda as close to a “panic” move as you’ll find. And it’s not really “panic” per se but just understanding that LT is a real problem and we need to set a real floor at that position.

So happy they’re willing to recognize and aggressively (4.5mm!) address a problem like this midstream. Regardless of how it works out.

I'd be willing to bet this has been in the works for quite some time.

I hadn’t really seen a solution for next season and beyond on the horizon for the position. This out of nowhere get could be huge.

Honestly, would someone with knowledge describe how good he is? I know he’s likely an upgrade over Donovan Smith and way better than Wanya/kingsley, but what are we looking at here?

I don't think it's that hard to find a decent guard.

At least on paper, Suamataia seems perfect to take that athletic LG spot
