New trade matching starting in July for teams under the first apron:
As of July 1, for teams below the apron:
https://www.sportsbusinessclassroom.com/...agreement/
So, McGee alone can bring back $11.7mm. 2 x $5.7mm plus $250k
Fully guaranteed Reggie can bring back $17.989mm. $10.489mm plus $7.5mm
Bertans outgoing in the not-completed deal with OKC can bring back $24.5mm ($12mm of that is used up by Holmes not counting his TK, leaving $12.5mm). There is room here for Utah do just drop Olynyk into this deal and not take back salary or LAC to do the same with Batum or Covington. Note that $12.5mm is basically a second MLE.
There isn't room under the apron to use this much extra salary AND the MLE. But, if the team was willing to S/W Reggie, it could absorb any one of those three players I mentioned, use the MLE and pay Kyrie almost his full max and stay under the apron (or pay him just under $40mm and stay under the TAX). Obviously, you can add McGee or THJ's salary to $12.5mm and get whatever that comes to in returning salary since the spread is already in the numbers. So, for example, LAC could dump Marcus Morris to us for $17mm and take back only McGee if they wanted to move some salary. Or, we could send McGee to a team that doesn't mind sending us a S&T player making $18.2mm (McGee could go to a third team with a TE or cap space and the team with the $18mm S&T player wouldn't have to absorb any salary).
Also, TE's now have a $250k spread instead of $100k of the past. So, if Bertans ends up being non-simultaneous, the TE could bring back as much as $5.25mm in round numbers. $5mm of TE plus the $250k spread.
Edit: The part in RED above is off by about $2mm as I didn't account for a minimum slot. It is discussed and corrected in the post further down this tread.
As of July 1, for teams below the apron:
- Up to $7.5 million in outgoing salary can bring back 200 percent plus $250,000
- $7,500,001 to $29 million will be padded by a flat $7.5 million
- Above $29 million will be limited to 125 percent plus $250,000
