question

are franchise teams allowed to "consult" analysts. I know that because of the roster lock teams arent allowed to sign any people, but could teams talk to analysts and what not to help them prep?

may be???

I highly doubt analysts would help teams without negotiating a contract with them, even if it’s a timed contract since this industry is brutal for employment and stable pay.

But yes teams do this, i remember jovi (the analyst for Eg rn) did help an overseas team with some of their strats. I forgot the team though 😁

I think analysts and assistant coaches aren’t part of the transfer window clause.
