After they waive Chris Paul, the Phoenix Suns will have five players under contract:
Deandre Ayton - $32.5M
Devin Booker - $36.0M
Kevin Durant - $47.6M
Landry Shamet - $10.3M
Cameron Payne - $6.5M ($2M guaranteed)
PHX has a $1.9M TO for Ish Wainright

Guessing that the Suns stretch Chris Paul's $15.8 milion guarantee over five years at $3.16m per season
Should the Suns S/W CP3, they cannot resign him during that time at all (5 years).
Per Larry Coon:
Quote:
- If a team chooses to stretch the cap hit of a waived player's salary (see question number 65), it cannot re-sign or re-acquire the player until the end of the original term of the contract.
BUT the Suns can abuse a loophole here. If they just eat CP3's 15 mil guaranteed contract, they are able to resign him at the vet min.
Gambo (PHX version of Stein) says as such here:
