One-night news: Adu s new contract is exposed, Bulls quotes Gidey, Sohan s injury update

Adu's new contract was exposed

In mid-June, the Rockets and the Suns reached a crazy 8-for-1 deal, and successfully came the 4-time scoring champion and 2-time FMVP winner Kevin Durant. The specific trading framework will send Jaylen Green, Brooks, the 2025 No. 10 pick and 5 second round picks to Durant. After welcoming Durant, the Rockets not only have a spiritual leader and backbone, but also have a scoring weapon that can stand on their own at critical moments, and the overall lineup has become more reasonable and competitive. However, since Durant's contract only has $5,328,000 in the last year, whether he can renew his contract with the Rockets has also touched the hearts of many fans.

Today, according to NBC Sports reporter Kurt Helin, a league source revealed that the Rockets are expected to provide Durant with a maximum salary contract of about $100 million in two years. According to the new labor-management agreement, Durant is eligible to sign a two-year maximum salary contract of up to $122 million after July 7 local time. From the Rockets' standpoint, although Adu still has the top competitive level in the league, he is almost 37 years old and the team leadership effect is unknown. It is very risky to blindly spend the maximum salary, which is not in line with the Rockets' stable and unradical team building ideas in recent years. For Adu, at this stage of his career, changing teams will not only ruin his reputation, but may also not get this salary. It is a more suitable choice to put the money in order to ensure his security.

Bulls quote Gidey

Today, according to Jake Fischer, a well-known American sports reporter, the Chicago Bulls have provided restricted free agent Josh Gidey with a contract price of $8,000,000 for four years, but were rejected by Gidey's team, hoping to get a contract with an annual salary of $3,000. Fischer said the Bulls were unwilling to make concessions. They believed that Gidey was not worth 3,000,000 yuan in average salary, and there were huge differences between the two sides on the contract renewal negotiations. Last season, Giddy performed well, playing 70 games for the Bulls, averaging 30.2 minutes per game to score 14.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.2 steals, setting career highs in many data.

The author believes that with Gidy's 23-year-old age and comprehensive skills, he is definitely worth 3,000,000 yuan in annual salary. The Bulls did this simply to determine that many teams do not have the salary space this year to use this to reduce Gidy's price. But with Gidi's current position and attitude, he will not accept the Bulls' quotation contract that is far lower than his psychological expectations. In other words, if the Bulls do not give in, then Gidey is likely to join other teams through signing and exchange, and may choose to sign a one-year qualification contract and then leave as a free agent next year. For the Bulls, Gidey is a trustworthy and invested team-building core. If you miss it like this, you will most likely regret it in the future.

Sohan's injury update

Yesterday, the Polish Men's Basketball Team officially announced that the team's striker Jeremy Sohan accidentally wounded his calf during training and will miss the upcoming European Championship. The head coach of the Polish men's basketball team said in a statement: "Sohan's injury is not serious after the necessary examination, but since it is less than 3 weeks away from the start of the European Championship, in order not to affect the team's preparation and the players' better recovery, after joint discussion, Sohan regrets that he can only end this national team journey ahead of schedule." Last season's regular season, Sohan played 54 games for the Spurs, averaging 25.3 minutes of playing games, contributing 11.4 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.5 blocks, with three shooting percentages of 53.5%, 30.8% and 69.6%.

Today, according to a reporter from the Spurs, Sohan has returned to San Antonio for rehabilitation treatment and special training. He is in good condition at present and is not expected to miss training camp and the new season's games. For Sohan, it is undoubtedly very uncomfortable to be unable to fight for the country due to injury. After all, this is an honor that many basketball players value very much. But since things have happened, we should face them calmly. We also hope that Sohan can calm down and treat and resume training. We hope that he can transform the anger of not being able to play this summer into stronger motivation and improve his performance in the new season.
