They can't be concerned with the salary slot of pick 18, around $2.4mil.
Assuming they pick a decent player it won't be that hard to dump them.
Lets say they draft Desmond Bane surely some team would be happy to give a 2nd round pick to take him.
If they trade the pick for a vet then unless they are sending Wright or Powell they would be adding salary to the 2021 cap if the vet isn't on a 1 year deal.
Trading pick 18 for a 1 year rental would be extremely stupid, especially when Giannis signs the supermax extension, $230+mil is going to be hard to turn down with so much uncertainty with the NBA finances.
If they haven't learned from Miami's last offseason, then enjoy Luka while we can.
