Trade & FA 2023-24: Sexton On the Market? | ORL Likes Hartenstein?

[F Gump]

mavs gain any room if they move Powell for air?  I suspect he is here as your emergency 3rd center and good morale guy.  I am sure a team would take him on though.  I don't think they move him.  Would that clear up any room if he was moved?

Not enough to move the needle. As they sit, on working math they have about $0 to pay DJJ and be below the hard cap with a small but reasonable cushion. So they have to outdo $5.2M (tx MLE) to do any better on the MLE. (TxMLE can be used and go past Apron 1 hard cap. The bigger NT MLE cannot, and have to use it and still stay and remain below that hard cap number.)

Powell for air only gives about 1.9M, since you have to refill the salary slot (min is 2.1M).
