1) sign holiday (to whatever contract he and MIN agree to?) 2) rubio is at $14.25MM, so how much more salary would the pels have to take back assuming holiday is north of 20? 3) the biggie...would the pels really have to send a pick asset if MIN is getting the "better" player?


(1) Yes
(2) We don't have to take any salary back besides Rubio. Minnesota has about $18M in space now, so without Rubio's $14M, they would have $32M.
(3) Yes we have to add an asset. The Wolves can make room for Jrue without the Pels. Rubio is not a negative asset. They could trade Rubio to another team for a pick and then sign Jrue outright. For us not to add anything would mean it is a pure salary dump of Rubio.
