Iman Shumpert: Opts into player option

Considering it was going to be extremely difficult for Shumpert to garner a
comparable offer on the open market, this decision doesn’t come as a shock. He
appeared in just 14 games for the Cavaliers in 2017-18 due to injury, eventually
being traded to the Kings, never seeing the floor for Sacramento. It’s not quite
clear what his role will be moving forward, but the soon-to-be 28-year-old is
running out of time to turn the corner. Over the past three seasons, he’s
averaged 6.5 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 24.5 minutes while shooting
39.6 percent from the field and 33.3 percent from deep.
