Utah ends up in a Mitchell deal with the Dallas pick and part of the compensation is taking the protection off of 2023. Also saves Utah tax. They are $20mm over the line and any deals they do probably need to cut salary fairly substantially.
That is interesting about the tax savings. I think Utah is the easiest way to upgrade. It is tricky and I am sure others will want to get involved.
But, I am not sure how much assets Utah is going to get back for some of these guys. It is even tricky if they get 3 young players back in a proposed Mitchell trade.
I am not sure if Dallas would have the best offer here and that is the tricky part. But I think this would be the best outcome either picking up one of the Utah players or a salary filler they receive in a Mitchell trade.
