I traded for
Pablo Profar several seasons back, after his previous owner missed the arbitration period in his final season. He was unwilling to sign an extension with them, but he did sign a new deal with me. Given that he received a max contract as a 33 year-old, it seems I saved $30 million in salary over the life of his contract. It's rare, but this is/was the best player in Shtickless history (14 AS games, 12 SS, 7 MVPs by age 34), so I'd never say never regarding extensions, and you can try to get full value on your guy.
