It would certainly be possible, if Kyrie is working with the Mavs to sign a reasonable starting salary.
Doncic 40
Irving 40
Ayton 33
Barnes 12 MLE (doubt it, but let´s assume that for a second)
Kleber 11
Bertans 5.4 s/w
Green 4.8
Mo. Wagner 4.4 BAE
Hendricks 4.0
Hardy 1.8
156.4
Fill rest with Powell, Morris, Lawson, Pinson, Ntilikina and some 2nd round talent.
Doncic/Hardy/Pinson
Irving/Lawson/Ntilikina
Green/Hendricks/2nd round pick
Barnes/Kleber/Morris

I think that would be as good as it gets for this off-season and positionally very flexible.
Probably not happening but it'd be nice if going with the that 5th year could get him to go lower in year 1
A hypothetical 5 year deal worth $200 million could start at around $34.5 mil. He'd make $45.6 mil in year 5
