The Spurs haven’t ruled out offering DeMar DeRozan a contract extension, according to SAEN’s Mike Finger.
While the report was carefully worded to suggest nothing is imminent, the mere fact that extending DeRozan is a possibility is both intriguing and a little confusing. It makes some sense from a cap perspective if the franchise wants to commit to the veteran guard, but it just doesn’t feel like a good idea to do so.
The first thing to understand is that an extension would help the Spurs retain DeRozan without committing to him for too long.
