TJ signed a 2 year / $7,000,000 contract with the Indiana. It'll be interesting to see who signs TJ as he'll be making a lot more money after putting up these kind of stats off the bench.

My guess would be standup comedian.

I would love to see him in a Sun's jersey while making 8 million or more a year for five years, and winning one or more rings -- then having him make the drive to McKale for a permanent spot on the Wildcat's bench, first as an assistant coach before taking over the program. I still love dreaming, even at my advanced age.

In my dream he first starts as a U of A assistant to Coach Kerr.

If you're gonna dream, it should be big! I'm with you, Bob, not that any of this will ever come to pass. Still . . .

I think that dream will become a reality.  TJ loved his time in Tucson and the fans adore him.  I wouldn't be surprised if he started in the NBA alongside Miller and worked his way back to Arizona by the time he's in his early 40's...
