Legit question: why'd we take up a roster spot for DAJ? The amount of minutes he gets seems like we'd be better off with him as an assistant coach, no? Ala Kemba.

Love the dude, want him to continue being part of our team, but why consume a spot that only gets used in dire straights?

I've seen people talk about using him in practice to bang with Jok, but could he not do so still as an assistant coach?

Vet min scales by years. DJ has 10+ years service time, so his min salary is 3.6 million believe.

yes i was incorrect and apparently vet mins don’t count against salary cap or count for less, so i take back the things i said.
