Trail Blazers guard Arron Afflalo will reportedly opt out of the final year of his contract this summer, declining a player option for $7.75 million and making the eight-year veteran an unrestricted free agent. Blazers GM Neil Olshey should have more roster flexibility this offseason as a result.
Trail Blazers guard Arron Afflalo will reportedly opt out of the final year of his contract this summer, declining a player option for $7.75 million and making the eight-year veteran an unrestricted free agent.
Afflalo, who turns 30 this October, was acquired by Portland at the trade deadline this past February along with guard Alonzo Gee, in exchange for Thomas Robinson, Will Barton, Victor Claver and the Blazers' 2016 lottery-protected first-round draft pick.
