I hope Otto stays with the Wizards (2nd choice the Kings, because I will be moving there). It seems the current Hoyas in the league seem to lose something after each trade. Otto is a player on the rise and I hope some stability will help continue that rise. The Washington Post says it is almost certain that the Wizards will match the max contract offer: According to several people familiar with the Wizards’ thinking, the team will in fact match the lofty offer. The Wizards did not extend their own maximum offer to Porter at the start of the free agency period at 12:01 a.m. Saturday, but team officials still believe that he is a vital part of the team’s success. If Porter re-signs with Washington, he would become the highest-paid player on the roster. www.washingtonpost.com/news/wizards-insider/wp/2017/07/02/wizards-agree-to-sign-free-agent-jodie-meeks-to-two-year-7-million-deal/?utm_term=.58892d94c976Not bad for a bust.

NBA salary cap rules are so confusing. Happy though for Otto--had a slow start to his career but nice to see that he is getting recognition.

It's beneficial for the Wizards that another team offer Otto a Max deal because it can only be for 4 years instead of 5 and apparently the annual increase is 5% instead of 8%

I guess it's not all that surprising, but Reggie has only gotten 1 min of playing time so far during summer league play. Looking at the bright side, he at least got a paid trip to Orlando after graduation.

In a weird sort of way, there is a touch of sour grapes with all of these so called "analysts". Their bottom line: No black man deserves to make that kind of money. Sick!

Have no idea where you got that from...I didn't read that at all. In fact, the writer suggested that guys like John wall should be getting paid more than Porter. I read that Porter is getting a lot of money ...a max deal to be exact....for doing less than stars in both the NBA and in other sports. It's a fair point. At the end of the day, Otto has promise, plays hard, and was in the right place at the right time. if otto's contract came up 10 years ago, there is no way he gets max money. It's a different time and this writer doesn't seem to like it at all. That's it.

Otto doesn't set the market the owners do.. Imo these articles are stupid, if you have a complaint talk about the guy willing to pay that money...

Don't go there Grahmmy, the writer wasn't saying that at all.. Then if he wasn't, I will take it back. I will do a reread. Thanks for the rebuke.
