Fred VanVleet Expected To Demand Salary In $30 Million Range
1 year agoToronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet will hit the open market this summer after declining his player option, and he won't come cheap for any interested party. The 29-year-old had a $22.8 million option for 2023-24, but he is now looking for starting salary in the $30 million range in free agency. VanVleet averaged 19.3 points with 4.1 rebounds, a career-high 7.2 assists, and 1.8 steals in 2022-23, and he should get plenty of interest around the league, but some teams might be put off by his scoring efficiency. The former Wichita State man has failed to hit at least 40 percent from the field in two of the last three seasons.
