2019-2020 Mavs Trade Discussion + Salary Chart

[SleepingHero]

we would be over 10 million short of max cap space with 109 cap

Cap is set to be 125 million for the 2021-22 season, which is the summer of 2021. 

If the Mavs traded both Powell and Wright, and renounced the rights to everyone, then they'd have 32,000,000 in space going into the summer of 2021. About 5 mil short of Giannis' max. Any trade of Curry Maxi, or Dodo+3 mil of salary would get you there. Any team would be very interested in taking 1 of those on for free. 

A core of Luka/Buddy/Giannis/KP would be one of the greatest teams ever assembled if they lived up to their expectations. Luka would be 23. KP would be 27. Giannis would be 27, Buddy will be 28. Not only would the team be extremely balanced, but they also are young. That core could theoretically compete for 7 years. 

And the Mavs would still have 1 of Maxi or Curry on top of DFS and Brunson. Which isn't a bad bench at all. Sign Boban for the min, use the Room MLE, and the Mavs would have a filled out bench.
