Chennedy Carter absent from Sky's qualifying offers
Sky general manager Jeff Pagliocca sent out qualifying offers on Monday evening and guard Chennedy Carter was noticeably absent from the list of recipients.
Instead, offers went out to guard Dana Evans and forwards Michaela Onyenwere and Nikolina Milić.
These offers now make Evans and Onyenwere restricted free agents and Milić a reserved free agent. The distinction is tied to players ability to negotiate with other teams. The restricted qualifying offer comes with a one-year non-guaranteed salary and gives the Sky exclusive negotiating rights over Evans and Onyenwere. As a reserved free agent, the offer is the same, but Milić can only negotiate with the Sky.
The offer does not guarantee Evans and Onyenwere will re-sign with the Sky, either. On Jan. 21, they can begin receiving offers from other teams. If the Sky are unwilling to match, they can sign elsewhere. They could also be used in a sign-and-trade.
