With all the trades that happened this week and with Davis going to be traded in the summer, what does our cap space look like in the offseason? Just trying to somehow wrap my brain around what we will have to spend on FAs to fill out our team to go with whomever/whatever we get for AD.

The guaranteed guys on the books next year - AD, Jrue, Hill and Moore come to somewhere in the region of 80 mil. If Julius picks up his option that's about 90 mil in guaranteed salary with the soft cap at 109 mil. That's the very simplified version.

Was it Stanley Johnson so high?
Isn't he RFA this summer for about 5.3M?

70M BTW if Randle picks up his option.
Davis will be traded before then.

Davis will be traded but we will get a fair bit of guaranteed salary back, so may as well just use AD's salary for the moment as a bit of a placeholder.

I'm a little bit shaky on what happens to Stanley Johnson next season. He can sign the QO for $4,485,665 and become an UFA the season after or I think the other option is to give him a new contract? I guess he will be on the books one way or another next season unless traded.

Edit: Wait, I think we can just let him walk if we don't offer the QO or a new contract

So many variables.
Who will come from Boston.
Will they dump Hill using two second rounders.
Will they get high draft pick (quite big salary). How many rookies they will sign.

Dont expect Pels to be big FA player though.

smith, payton, miller, clark & frazier all UFA.
randle has a 9MM PO.
johnson, kenrich and diallo all RFA if the team offers a QO.
no dead money cap charges.

in 2019 draft they have their 1st & 2nd & DEN 2nd.

Dumping Hill is stupid unless we either need a FA or to absorb more salary than we can send out. And I don’t see us being big FA players in this summer’s market as we figure out the post-AD plan.
