NBA 2K17: Bad And Ugly Contracts On Every NBA Team
6. Portland Trail Blazers
The Bad: Allen Crabbe 3 years / $56.3M; Maurice Harkless 4 years / $40M
The Ugly: Evan Turner 4 years / $70M
Allen Crabbe makes this list solely because of the size of his contract - in the off-season he can be accquired for half of that money - as he is a solid starter/sixth man. When it comes to Maurice Harkless...I don't know man. $10M a season for an athletic and undeveloped forward doesn't seem like much of a bargain.
Evan Turner's deal is just atrocious. He's not a bad player, but just like Crabbe you can get him for relatively less.
Plus, Turner is not as productive and perspective as the other guard/forward. With the projected salary cap for the following season standing at $137M it's pretty obvious that some trades are necessary to keep the owner satisfied.
