I don't know honestly, it's not really clear. That's actually something BSS should ask Larry Coon when they have him on the podcast later this summer, so Aced if you're lurking, let your friend MM know.
The extension will be agreed to during the previous season. It would seem like cap chicanery for the team to be able to treat his cap space like the qualifying offer rather than the already agreed to extension.

Even then, in 2016 with Davis' extension, we will only have four players on the books (assuming we still have Rivers on the roster by then), totaling around $46M. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Say the cap is around $67 million for the '16-'17 season.
Evans: $10.2
Holiday: $11.0
Davis: $20.1
Rivers: $4.2 QO
If I'm looking at this correctly, that leaves us around $21M to chase free agents. Maybe we re-sign Anderson and another mini-max / a few role players, or maybe we sign a max player and fill out the roster with minimum contracts and the MLE.
Without Rivers, we will have close to $25 million in cap space. NOLA could be a mildly sought after destination if AD continues to progress into the true superstar we all think he will become. That's enough room to sign a Durant or Kevin Love type max.
