Garrett Temple – 3 years, $15 million (New Orleans Pelicans)
Garrett Temple is a component of the sign-and-trade that sent Lonzo Ball from the New Orleans Pelicans to the Chicago Bulls. Temple will head back to New Orleans and will sign a three-year, $15 million contract.
Grade: C
Jeff Green – 2 years, $10 million (Denver Nuggets)
This is another nice value contract for the Denver Nuggets. Jeff Green will sign a two-year, $10 million deal with the Nuggets which represents a nice little pay raise from the one-year, $2.5 million minimum contract he signed with the Brooklyn Nets last season. Good deal for both sides here.
Grade: B
Cameron Payne – 3 years, $19 million (Phoenix Suns)
This is an absolute steal after the NBA playoffs Cameron Payne is coming off. This three-year, $19 million deal is a tremendous value for a player who is essentially a postseason killer. He stepped in when Chris Paul was out of the lineup and was fantastic and getting some guaranteed money is a fantastic turn of events for a player who seemed like he was on his way out of the league barely a year ago.
