I’m not believing anything anyone says close to the draft and free agency. Kemba could agree to take $1,000 less than the Supermax for all we know. I do believe he loves living in Charlotte though, and has made very strong ties down there outside of basketball.
Does anyone know if he still has the same agent that got him the last deal, which turned out to make him the most underpaid guy in the league? I know because of the timing and the fact that it was before Kemba’s drastic improvement, that the agent doesn’t deserve all the blame, but it would be interesting to know if Kemba kept him around or not.
