So dummy question here, but if a player's contract is voided for this scenario, does it still count against the cap?
If it doesn't, then it seems like a scenario could exist where it actually helps a team to void a max contract of an aging player that may or may not be worth it at the cost of 1 FRP and a 4.5M fine.
Not saying that's the case here with the Clips/Kawhi, but just in general it seems like that could have potential of not being as painful as intended depending on the team/player situation that ran afoul of this clause. I'm probably missing/misunderstanding something here though.
