What It Means:

Last year, the Nets made an offer to Crabbe in restricted free agency. Now a year removed from the Blazers matching the offer sheet, the Nets could complete a trade for Crabbe, shedding the veteran Nicholson in the process. Crabbe figures to be in the mix for a big role at shooting guard and/or small forward in Brooklyn. Meanwhile, Portland will waive and utilize the stretch provision in dealing with Nicholson's $19.9 million in dead money.

In 2016-17, Crabbe averaged 10.7 points, 1.7 three-pointers and 2.9 rebounds across 28.5 minutes per game. He played in 79 games and earned a nERD of -0.6, which placed him 259th of 486 players in our database.
