Rashad McCants in Denver



Rashad McCants tweeted today that he is going to be meeting with Denver. I'm glad to see that the FO is exploring all their options and making sure we fill our void for a bench wing. I don't know much about McCants except he is a scorer and shoots alot and it seems that he has not fit well with the franchises he has been with, Minnesota and Sac. Both places he had an opportunity to be a contributor. He made around 2 mill last year I believe so we could probably get him for the same price as Kleiza around 2.7 mill and possibly cheaper because it doesn't seem as if anyone else is pursuing him. One thing is he is a little undersized but he is athletic and does put in effort on the defensive end. Not a drop dead shooter, sorry K-Mart, but he can score.
