Aug 31, 2018 — Ryan McDonough
The decision this board surrounds ultimately brought in De'Anthony Melton. Later outcomes never rewrite the board.PHX on 2018-08-31: the listed basketball needs were event creation, passing, creation. 2 player(s) were publicly on the market, but none had a source linking this team to them. 0 open-market candidate(s) matched at least one listed need. Market access, basketball fit, price, salary route, and legality remain separate.
Markieff MorrisWhy is he here?
Markieff Morris: Markieff Morris was on the public trade market, but no source linked PHX to him. His strongest observed functions did not match the listed top needs. The candidate salary route was not reliable enough to screen. Exact transaction legality remains withheld without a complete package and exception ledger.
prior-season impact context: 0.3 per 100 (O 0.1 / D 0.2) — Prior impact context is separate from team fit, price, and transaction value.
Ryan Andersoncap charge $20.4MWhy is he here?
Ryan Anderson: Ryan Anderson was on the public trade market, but no source linked PHX to him. His strongest observed functions did not match the listed top needs. The minimum outgoing-salary screen was available for a $20,421,546 incoming charge. Exact transaction legality remains withheld without a complete package and exception ledger.
minimum outgoing salary screen only; post-trade team salary, guarantees, bonuses, aggregation timing, exceptions and complete package remain required for legality
prior-season impact context: 0.2 per 100 (O 1.1 / D -0.9) — Prior impact context is separate from team fit, price, and transaction value.
Historical decision board. A public-market player is not presented as a team target without a named team link. Minimum outgoing salary is not exact legality. Missing asking price is not a zero price. Later outcomes do not alter the decision-date board.
