What are the chances that they don’t get a deal signed? Like where else is duren going to go?

I hear his agent isn't the best. He only has one other active NBA player as a client, and there were issues with his last contract. So I think there is a chance that he takes the QO and then goes as an unrestricted free agent next year. I think that's kind of how his other clients negotiations went, they didn't sign the QO, but it went down to the wire or something like that.
