Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones made his statement by skipping the team’s mandatory minicamp http://www.officialwild.com/authentic-adidas-matt-dumba-jersey , but the team remains confident he’s not going to be a malcontent.
In fact, coach Dan Quinn said he expected Jones would be quite happy by then.
鈥淭he good news is that there are conversations that have begun,鈥?Quinn said, via D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. 鈥淲e鈥檒l keep those private. I have a lot of faith in the organization and also in Julio that things will get resolved with good communications. I鈥檓 sure that鈥檒l be a part of it as well.鈥?/p>
They’re not talking about the weather, but the fact Jones’ contract has been rendered substandard by the recent spike in wideout deals. That led to his staying away (even at the risk of $84,435 in fines) from the minicamp James Neal Jersey , as well as the offseason program.
Quarterback Matt Ryan said he anticipated seeing Jones at his passing camp in July, before the start of training camp. And Quinn sounds confident that Jones will be ready to report to training camp when the time comes.
The Charlotte Hornets have agreed to trade eight-time All-Star center Dwight Howard to the Brooklyn Nets for center Timofey Mozgov and two second-round draft picks, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press on Wednesday.
The Hornets will get the Nets’ second-round pick Thursday night (45th overall) and a second-round pick in 2021, the person said. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the teams have not announced the trade and the league cannot approve the deal until the trade moratorium ends on July 6.
The 32-year-old Howard played only one season for Charlotte, averaging 16.6 points and 12.5 rebounds per game. He is due to make $23.8 million this season, the final year of his contract.
Brooklyn will be Howard’s fourth team in as many seasons. He had pushed for a trade from Orlando to the Nets during the 2011-12 season in hopes of joining Deron Williams Womens A.J. Green Jersey , then changed his mind and recommitted the Magic, who instead dealt him to the Lakers that summer.
After later spending three seasons with the Houston Rockets, Howard was acquired by his hometown Atlanta Hawks in 2016 as a free agent and signed a three-year contract. But he wore out his welcome after one season and was dealt to Charlotte. The Hornets, in the midst of a major organizational shake-up, having already replaced their general manager and coach, could be on the verge of shaking up their roster Arik Armstead Jersey , too.
Howard struggled to mesh with guard Nicolas Batum, and the Hornets failed to make the playoffs despite what former coach Steve Clifford considered the team’s most talented roster in half a decade.
This is a reunion of sorts for Mozgov. Recently hired Hornets general manager Mitch Kupchak signed Mozgov to a four-year, $64 million deal in 2016 when both were with the Los Angeles Lakers.
While the move allows the Hornets to unload Howard’s contract and save about $7 million under this year’s salary cap, it is a bit of a gamble because Mozgov has two years remaining on his current deal at $16 million per year.
Mozgov’s numbers pale in comparison to Howard’s.
He played in only 31 games last season for the Nets, averaging 4.2 points and 3.2 rebounds. Acquired along with D’Angelo Russell, Mozgov began the season in the starting lineup but quickly fell out of the rotation entirely on a team that preferred to play small and shoot 3-pointers.
The 7-foot-1 Mozgov has not played a full 82-game season since 2013 and has averaged in double figures only once during his eight-year NBA career. By contrast Youth Jamie McGinn Jersey , Howard has averaged 17.4 points, 12.7 rebounds and two blocks per game since joining the league in 2004.
His rim protection should help what has been a poor defensive team and he could help in the pick-and-roll with Russell and Jeremy Lin, but the biggest incentive to the Nets is likely for salary reasons with Howard’s contract expiring after next season.
