Information dump over the last 24 hours. Notable: Warriors sent $5.8 million to Indiana to save $12 million in salary and taxes per John Hollinger of The Athletic and Marc Spears of Andscape deleted his tweet, possibly not to tip GSW’s hand in the upcoming buyout market. 🤔 See transcripts and video from GSW-PHI.

GSW299: Fyi the Wiggins trade talk is the third timeline
New thing: “299” seems to be a designation of a super-deep graduate class when it comes to the numbering system of most colleges, so I’m calling these articles “GSW299” from now on to denote that it really does require some foundational knowledge of the NBA.
