Unless they are baller af, we aren't going to be super invested in extending them long term.

Yeah that’s how I see it. And he probably just thinks there is so much more room for improvement with the young guys as well. If he thinks McDonald is a class above the available guys I’m sure it could happen. But I just don’t see any Danny Watkins (remember him?) scenarios happening under Veach
Side note - Karlaftis is a month away from even turning 22. He’s just scratching the surface
