June 20, 2011 – The Hoop Doctors
Having just turned 34 last season, Vince Carter is still effective but not what he used to be. The Suns are reportedly preparing to buy him out either on draft day or close to it as they are trying to get younger. Maybe a team like Chicago could use somebody like Vince?
When it comes to the Suns’ draft situation for Thursday night, it is easier to address what won’t happen:
– They won’t end the night without a draft choice.
– They won’t trade Vince Carter’s contract, opting instead to buy him out for $4 million in the coming days.
– They probably won’t use one of their trade exceptions to take on extra payroll, which could compromise flexibility expected in 2012
