We'll be operating over the cap so I'm not sure why this is relevant?

you don’t get a cap exception for a 1st round pick salary slot.

Why? We have a shite ton of those, why do we need more?

you can sign a 2nd round pick with an exception and/or 2 way him or stash him

It's actually the opposite. Teams can sign 1st rounders when over the cap. Think about it, most teams operate over the cap yearly, and yet most teams sign their 1st rounders.


It's actually 2nd rounders that don't receive that exception.

CBA FAQ Site

quote:

Also unlike first round picks, teams do not receive a salary cap exception specifically for their second round picks. These players must be signed using cap room or an available exception (see question number 25), such as the Minimum Salary exception or the Mid-Level exception. It is most common for a second round pick to receive the minimum salary and be signed using the Minimum Salary exception.
