2 year 10 million.   Not a bad deal for them

Sorry.   It's just going to be weird seeing him in any Jersey other than a Spurs.  You have to think a playoff team could have used him.

And he really doesn't have much left on offense either. He'll be a good locker room guy.

Hopefully the next step is trading for Marcus Morris as they try to limp towards a playoff seed.

Is MKG finished? What are your thoughts?

Finished might be strong, but if Charlotte wants to see the playoffs, as they apparently do, they should consider alternatives.  Morris could give Miles Bridges a fine apprentice year.

Just don't introduce him to your wife.

Reason I ask you this is, because I wonder if he would be worth taking a flier on.

I still think MKG would be better off in a team where there is plenty of spacing. He's improved his offensive woes, and actually finished well in terms of FG %. He's also able to play small ball 4, and even super duper small ball 5. His ability to switch, and superb lateral quickness/wingspan will allow him to be perfect in our system. Can't shoot, but... His handling, and mid range shot has gone above and beyond compared to what he had 2-3 years ago.

Quote
Much like last season, the sixth-year pro continued to exhibit increased comfort on the offensive end, particularly with regards to his jump shot (102-of-282; 36.2 percent) and hook shot (15-of-26; 57.7 percent). He finished with the highest offensive rating of his career this season, registering a mark of 108.1 points per 100 possessions.

Quote
Despite Kidd-Gilchrist’s defensive rating taking a small step back this year (103.8 to 105. 8 ), his 2.3 net rating was still the second best of his NBA career. One particular area he also excelled in was ball security. Of all NBA players who averaged at least 25.0 minutes in a minimum of 60 games, Kidd-Gilchrist ranked 12th in the league in turnover ratio (7.0 percent).

Quote
Kidd-Gilchrist finished the year with averages of 9.2 points and 4.1 rebounds in 25.0 minutes over 74 total games. Amongst NBA small forwards with at least 500 field-goal attempts this season, he ranked fifth in field-goal percentage (career-high 50.4 percent), trailing only LeBron James, Kevin Durant, E’Twaun Moore and Michael Beasley.
Amongst Charlotte players with at least 20.0 minutes played per game this season, Kidd-Gilchrist ranked tied for second on the team in offensive rating (108.1) and third in overall net rating (2.3).
Heading into next season, Kidd-Gilchrist sits sixth in franchise history in both total rebounds (2,107) and offensive rebounds (601) and eighth in both defensive rebounds (1,506) and blocks (259).
