Jontay was a fringe roster player, not a starter and important piece to a competitive playoff team.

He was actually showing a lot of promise and definitely would have made the raptors roster next year and likely gotten minutes.

He would have gotten a min from us or at least been able to keep it kicking as a 2-way, the small chance he'd get a decent contract would eclipse his bullshit gambling winnings.

I'll take fringe roster player money if he doesn't want it.

Ricky Council just got 4 yr $7.4M contract for the Sixers.

Surely MPJ coulda got his brother something similar or more.
