While Davis Bertans news is not the biggest thing happening in Thunder Nation, there is some Bertans news this week, so why not lead with the three-point hoisting big man?
This past week, Bertans agreed to a change to a contract to eliminate the trigger that would make his contract fully guaranteed for 2024-25 by increasing his partial guarantee for next year by $250,000. This change gives the Thunder more flexibility in managing Bertans cap hit next season, as it removes the (unlikely) possibility that his contract could be fully guaranteed at $16 million.
With this change, could it increase the odds Bertans gets traded?
