Just an FYI...Braun got cut a couple days ago.
Wouldn't be surprised if Wolters does too.

Wolters signed a two-way deal, meaning if he's "cut" he goes to their G-League affiliate and is eligible to shuffle back and forth between the G-League and NBA. It's a nice concept that gives tweener players a better salary (to stay stateside vs. Euro ball) and gives the teams some flexibility. It will essentially eliminate the 10-day contracts.
Nothing wrong with making a good living in Europe, provided you have someone to talk to....see below.
I was recently talking with a friend of Wolters. Last year, Nate played in Turkey and basically no one on the team spoke English. I guess socially, it was a bit rough on him, but he made serious dough. I'd be interested on how this new two way deal works for him versus that money/social situation.
