Not even 12 hours following an absolutely heartbreaking defeat in Game 7 to the Milwaukee Bucks, Brooklyn Nets fans were dealt another blow. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting that guard Spencer Dinwiddie plans to decline his $12.3 million player option.
This would result in Dinwiddie becoming an unrestricted free agent. Dinwiddie’s reported decision, although frustrating for Nets fans does not come as a surprise.
After a breakout year during the 2019-20 season in which he averaged career-highs in points (20.6), rebounds (3.5), and assists (6.8), Dinwiddie became a prized commodity.
