I just do not understand. The lakers traded everyone but 3 players, need to get a roster with 32 million, but they can get a top free agent that is going to make 40? What is left G league two way contracts?
Who is going to make 40? The max for Kawhi, Kyrie, Kemba, Klay, and Butler is $32.7M if they leave their current team (30% of the cap due to time in the league). Only Durant can make more on a new team (35%). DLo is in the 25% bracket.
Lakers will have their room exception ($4.76M) and veteran minimum contracts to utilize to fill out their roster once that $32M is used up (whether on one virtual max player or spread around for multiple guys).
