10 million! Jokic stayed on the team as a substitute. Did the Clippers dig up the treasure?

The world's money is still very useful. The Nuggets traded to Valan, but they don't want to play for the Nuggets and want to go back to Europe. The Nuggets insisted on keeping him and directly converted his two-year contract into full guarantee, which also guaranteed Valan's $10 million in the second year. In the end, the two sides reached an agreement, and Valan stayed in the Nuggets next season.

In the past two seasons, the Nuggets have been looking for an inside substitute for Jokic, but the management has not done anything and even signed Saric for a high price, which has become a failed business. The Nuggets, who changed their management team during the offseason, also showed great power in the free market. After a series of operations, the Nuggets will become one of the biggest favorite teams to win the championship next season.

Has the Clippers dug up their treasures?

According to ESPN reporter Tim MacMahon, the Jazz sent Collins away because he was too capable of winning and efficient, which delayed the team's performance. Last season, Collins played 40 games for the Jazz, averaging 19.0 points, 8.2 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game, shooting percentage of 52.7% and three-point shooting percentage of 39.9%.

The Clippers' attacks cover the basket, mid-range and three-pointers, and are a multi-faceted scorer, which can also free the pressure of Harden's little card. And the key point is that the arrival of Collins also solved the problem of the Clippers' No. 4 position in recent seasons. Although many people think Collins' defense is not very good, at least Collins' size is there.

Collins's type of player is indeed quite malleable when playing around Harden. If he can maintain an efficient offense, even if the defense is a little bit short, it will not affect Collins' playing time.

Then will Collins become a surprise for the Clippers?
