Trade & FA 2023-24: Stein-Ingram Trade Inevitable| LAL Want Lebron Back On Any Terms

I’d be curious what the future ramifications are with both Green and Avdija’s extensions kicking in. As early as next year it could be costly, no?

 Both are big jumps, yes.

If the Mavs made the 6-for-3 swap as outlined previously, ending up with both JG and Advija, their future payroll would grow considerably. Barring other trades, in the summer they would be over Apron 1 but under Apron 2, with ability and room in July to use the TxpMLE and minimums. No real chance in that scenario to avoid tax or even duck under Apron 1.
