Jodie Meeks

NBA Champion Jodie Meeks reached the apex of every basketball player’s dreams: winning the Finals. Obviously, his role was minimal and essentially non-existent throughout the season but he’ll get fitted for a ring just like Kawhi Leonard, Kyle Lowry, and everyone else. With the new jewelry to parade will Jodie call it quits after a decade in the league?

He never signed a lucrative contract and he never earned real minutes in a playoff series but it would seem the window for such opportunities has closed. On the wrong side of thirty and seemingly dead weight on a quality roster, Meeks career is expiring quickly. Is he done for good? Will a rebuilding franchise pick him up for cap filler? Will a playoff team snag some cheap deep bench shooting? Will Jodie head overseas? Bro, I don’t know. I’m not the three-eyed raven. I have no answers. So, sorry guys for the lack of inside info. Maybe next year I’ll go to the Sloan Conference, eat some wings with Adrian Wojnarowski, maybe exchange irrelevant insider notes, and bring some real insight to the table in 2020.
