You have to get the roster up to 12 with minimum salaries or $543,471 each. Technically you only need to go to 11 because whoever you're signing would be your 12th, but with the 7 players and 1st round pick you listed that means adding 3 roster holds for about $1.5 million.

Where are you getting your salaries from? The numbers from Basketball Insiders give me different figures than what you have. With AD getting Rose Rule money I come up with $72 million and $68 if he doesn't.

Davis 24,972,216 (21,109,000 non Rose Rule)
Holiday 11,286,518
Evans 10,203,755
Asik 9,904,494
Ajinca 4,713,203
Pondexter 3,617,978
Cunningham 2,978,250
$6 pick 2,931,000
Roster Hold 543,471
Roster Hold 543,471
Roster Hold 543,471
Total 72,237,827

was using the numbers from HoopsHype and DraftExpress
Spotrac has non-30% AD23 at $20,956,974

Imagine a scenario where we sign and trade Ryno and EG for picks after the season.
Someone still wants Reke and Asik, for picks. AD23 doesn't make All-NBA...

Then we are back close to 2 max territory this offseason, with the cap expanding again again to accommodate $20 million for Jrue in 2017-18?

Anthony Davis $20,956,974
Jrue Holiday $11,286,518
Harrison Barnes $21,000,000
Timofey Mozgov/ Festus Ezeli $21,000,000
6th Pick $2,931,000
Alexis Ajinca $4,638,203
Quincy Pondexter $3,617,978
Dante Cunningham $2,978,250
Roster Hold $543,471
Roster Hold $543,471
Roster Hold $543,471
Total: $90,039,336 - Maybe Harrison and Festus take a little discount to get us under

Still would be nice to get Mozgov pre-deadline, so his birdrights put his caphold under 10mm, allowing us to maybe sign a Courtney Lee, before resigning him over the cap. DAMNIT TYREKE!
