After much discussion last year over the glut of centers crowding the backend of Milwaukee’s roster, it appears we can start to tidy up those old arguments and begin the bickering anew this season. According to a report from Adrian Wojnarowski, Spencer Hawes will officially opt-in to his $6 million dollar player option for next season. His opt-in deadline was conveniently today, so he waited about as long as possible before coming to a conclusion.
The stretchy center who stepped out and hit some threes for Milwaukee last season is a good bet to remain the nominal third option this season barring some leap from John Henson (HAHAHA).
