The New Orleans Pelicans have rescinded their qualifying offer to Jeff WIthey - he becomes an unrestricted free agent @BBallInsiders
Gives me the impression that we've got a Dealin Dell offseason upcoming.

Can get a 12th man for less than 1.5 million

Could be that. Withey may also have more suitors talking more money than we're willing to spend, hence letting him go without creating restrictions on our own future moves. I'm sure we'll hear something in the next 24 hours that gives the situation some clarity.

This move doesn't really create cap space though. The $5.5 million in cap space you get by letting Asik walk assumes no Withey/Babbitt/Ajinca/etc. We'll either hear about a longer than 1 year deal in the next few minutes (usually that's a simultaneous release though) or Demps is signing a center. I suppose it's also possible that the coaching staff decided to take a pass on Withey.

That's possible too. Even though we could match, if the offers are legit and we don't want to match, might as well cut bait now so we can make other arrangements like bringing Jason Smith back.

If a guy signs a QO, you gotta wait until you can package him with players in a trade. Not the case in a sign and trade (Withey)
So Withey might be a throw in to a S&T of something else? We threw Withey + Toney Douglas for Jason Smith out in a thread the other day.

How do you S&T an unrestricted free agent?

You sign them. And then you trade them.

I wonder how much we signed him for that we let Withey go? Having 3 centers on the roster isn't that unusual.
Posted on 7/1/15 at 2:13 pm to TigerinATL
AD/Asik/Frenchy are the three centers.
