Possibility Of An Antoine Wright Sign And Trade?

[Built Ford Tough]

From Doug Smith's blog:

 

You know who’s kind of been forgotten in all this hullabaloo over Bosh’s impending free agency and Hedo’s appearance on Turkish TV and the addition of P.J. Carlesimo to the coaching staff?

 

Antoine Wright.

 

Now, I firmly believe that on a team with DeMar DeRozan and Sonny Weems on it there probably isn’t room for Wright and, as a free agent, I expect him to leave. (Although, with what I believe is an impending Turkoglu trade may cloud that issue).

 

Now, I do know this is you’re thinking sign-and-trade.

 

I’m told Minnesota had some interest very early last season; and I know there was some chatter with Cleveland around the trade deadline.

 

Is this one of those situations where earlier conversations that bore no fruit are re-visited in the summer?

 

Not sure but when you’re going over roster changes coming this summer, don’t forget to include Wright in the conversation.

 

I don't expect Wright to be back next season, that is for sure, but if Colangelo is able to get something in return for Wright, I would be pleasently surprised. I don't really see the point in another team agreeing to a sign and trade for Wright, and I imagine the return if such a scenario were to happen would be nothing more than a 2nd round pick or something, but if it happens I would definitely be surprised and pleased considering in my mind, it is basically a 100% certainty that Wright won't be back next year.

I hated Wright at first, but then I saw how much heart and passion he puts into it. Sure he can be dumb, but he does it at 100% no matter what.

Wright wouldn't be bad if he knew his own limitations, every time he put the ball on the floor I just shook my head.

I'd take a 2nd
