What does our cap situation look like right now?

 

hard to say without knowing what Biyombo's first year looks like.

 

maybe have a few million. maybe not. but we're approaching luxury tax territory so I doubt we're taking on anything else besides minimum contracts.

livebasketball.tv to watch hezonja play at 3 eastern. 75 minutes from now for those overseas.

 

ok, this is behind a paywall that I wasn't aware of.

 

let me know if someone can find a stream.

wouldn't have believed you before the draft if you told me the Magic would be near tax payroll in july. Props to management for going out to spend this year.

right now we have $83,469,383 in salary on the books (add $1million if we cut Watson instead of dump his contract) based on early estimates that I can find online.

 

 

so we have about $26.5 million in cap space for next year based on a 110 million cap.

 

a Westbrook max would cost $31,099,320 ish.

 

so we need to drop about $5 million before free agency next summer.

Durant now westbrook. Y'all are funny.

 

not as crazy as you'd think. Everyone could offer Durant. only about a dozen teams are in the running for Westbrook. Sacramento, New York, Denver, Utah, Atlanta, Boston, Minnesota, phoenix, Brooklyn, Chicago, philly. and this is based on teams not adding any other free agent money now.

 

you could cut down half of those teams based on performance or weather.

 

so if we're 1/6 that's about a 16% chance of getting him.

Yes, but spent on what? We basically just blew our entire cap on role players.
