Brian Windhorst: Well, I don’t think they can keep this team together. They can be at the core, but…so Julius Randle is a free agent. Nickeil Alexander Walker is a free agent and Naz Reid is a free agent. He didn’t opt out, I’m sure he would accept it. Ants’ contract is very large. (…) I would be surprised if they could re-sign these three guys. I think they could trade another player to keep them, maybe they can, I don’t know, but I would be surprised if they could afford these three. -VIA YouTube / May 29, 2025
