Pels pick up 4th year options for Zo and Hart

11m seems like a lot for Lonzo but I understand we had to pick it up. Hart was a no Brainer.

It's one of those things. Had to do it. Don't find it a problem either, I'm cool with it. The extra year to evaluate before a true longer term extension comes up is invaluable.

People forget, half, or even more than half of the game is defense. And Lonzo has the potential to be elite on that end, I'd say he might already be one of the best defensive guards in the league. Combined with his rebound, passing talents, speed, and what looks like an improved stroke and 3-ball. I am very fine with it. And Hart's as well.

Ball shouldn't be launching 12 threes tho. Yikes
