And within minutes of this, Leila Ouahabi jonis Gotham.
Sources confirmed to CBS Sports that Ouahabi’s previous deal (through 2028) was one of the last roster moves of the Feuz timeline. Pretty significant early glimpse of Andonovski era in that he’s already at work on the roster amidst pending hires for more execs/staff and future coaching hires.
¡Gracias, Leila!
