In his first meeting with the local media since Ryan McDonough was fired as General Manager on Monday, Vice President of Basketball Operations and current interim in McDonough’s place, James Jones didn’t provide much clarity on the situation. And who could blame him, as I imagine trade talks are still ongoing around the league for a point guard and he can’t dig himself a deeper hole, at least that’s the hope here.
Before we dive into the juicier topics, Jones didn’t say much when asked about why they applied for a Disabled Player Exception for Darrell Arthur. Jones mentioned it was something they will monitor moving forward, and if accepted, ultimately could be the extra $3.
