Extension talks between Leonard, Spurs at a standstill
SAN ANTONIO — The Spurs have until Friday to reach a contract extension with
small forward Kawhi Leonard, lest he become a restricted free agent next
summer. Barring significant movement in the final week of negotiations, the
Finals MVP appears headed in that direction.
The Express-News can confirm the gist of this morning’s Yahoo! Sports
report: Leonard is seeking a maximum extension, and the Spurs are balking at
giving it to him.
Spurs general manager R.C. Buford and Leonard’s agent, Brian Elfus, have met
multiples times over the past several weeks, with no extension deal imminent.
Leonard, 23, averaged 12.8 points and 6,2 rebounds last season, and is
considered one of the NBA’s top wing defenders. He is entering the final
season of his standard rookie-scale contract, which will pay $2.89 million.
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich has called Leonard the future face of the
franchise. The Spurs have no plans on letting him get away. Yet there are
several avenues for locking up Leonard past this season.
If the Spurs were to make Leonard their “designated player,” they could
sign him to a five-year, $90 million extension. They could also offer him a
four-year deal at maximum money. If Leonard is to hit the restricted free
agent market, he is expected to draw interest at a maximum level. The Spurs
almost certainly would match any offer sheet he signs.
The danger, as Yahoo! Sports points out, would be in Leonard signing a
short-term offer sheet like Chandler Parsons did in Dallas last summer.
Parsons inked a three-year, $46 million with a player option in the final
season, allowing him to become a unrestricted free agent in 2016.
Such a scenario might actually be financially beneficial to Leonard, as he
would hit the market after the NBA’s lucrative new television deal kicks in
and raises the league-wide salary cap.
Restricted free agency, however, can be a dicey proposition for players,
especially those expected to garner maximum-level offers. Teams can be
reticent about tying up money at a crucial juncture of free agency on an
agreement that a player’s original club is almost certain to match.
It is a game of cat-and-mouse the Spurs and Leonard’s camp will continue to
play. There is still time for a breakthrough, but Friday’s deadline is
looming.
1. 马刺目前没有放走可爱的计画。
2. 如果让可爱成为RFA，万一可爱和其他队伍签下像Parson那种合约（三年约尤其带有球
员选项，于2016年变成为完全自由球员），马刺即使跟进也很危险。
3. 现在马刺制服组和可爱团队就很像在玩猫捉老鼠的游戏一样，还有时间寻求突破，但礼
拜五（美国时间）已经越来越近了。
