Our dead money...
McGee: worth $0, -$11.7m/2yr
THJ: worth $11m, -$11.9m/2yr
Holmes: worth $3m, -$18.8/2yr
So to make the numbers match and give back PHX $20m/yr in value, this works.
-Wood (S&T 3yr, $10m/yr)
-THJ
-McGee
for
-Ayton
This would swap -$23.6m (THJ and McGee) of our dead money, resulting in the following overpay for Ayton (given his play stays the same):
2023: +$0.1m
2024: -$12.9m
2025: -$15.5m
This would put us just under Apron 1.
Kyrie, Hardy, Exum
Green, Curry
Luka, OMax
G.Williams, Maxi
Ayton, Powell, Lively, Holmes
The only dead money left is Holmes' -$18.8m/2yr
For PHX...
Booker, Lee
Beasley, Ross, Gordon
Warren, THJ, Okogie
Durant, Bol
Eubanks, Wood
Thoughts?
