This has been my thought. He scored 20 last night as Charlotte's starting center. But, there are nights he just glides through the game. He got paid (kind of) and may just be checked out. His declining salary helps. Does PJ's $15mm next season and $14mm the season after that really block OMax should he ascend to starter status?
Dallas ends up $350k under the tax in such a deal this season and adds $700k of salary for next season (so still looking at the TP MLE as the most we can give DJJ or anyone else in free agency without additional trades).
If I were Charlotte, I'd also do Rozier to Miami for Lowry, Jovic and Miami's 2024 (Charlotte doesn't have a first this summer). Charlotte would then build around Ball, Hardy-Smith, Miller, Jovic and Williams
