We likely have a top ten pick as a caphold… May want to keep Simone so that would be another cap hold. Could likely retain him with an exception if we wanted. We don’t need to take Lauri up to the max next year. Can give him about 15M more next year and then increase up to 140% to get him to the max the following year. He gets an extra 15M a year early and gets the long term security of the max.

Yeah...and the $15.5 is without KO and THT as well. With Collins on the books, we are in a great financial position to....bring back the same team : (

Jazz salaries are at $99.3 with 10 players. Cap holds for empty roster spots brings this up to about $102. A max renegotiation and extend would bring Lauri's number up to 30% of $142, which is $42.6. That is an increase of about $24.5. That brings our total to ~$126.5M. Cap space under a $142M cap would be about $15.5M....which is admittedly more than I thought. So in theory the Jazz could bring that amount of incoming salary and still renegotiate and extend Lauri.

It still sucks to have John Collins $26.5M on the books though. We could renegotiate and extend Lauri and still have max cap space after.

We don`t need to max out Lauri for next year. The key is to be able to give him a salary that allows him to get the 30% max on the extension years. The $12-$15 million he will get extra next year is free money that he won`t get if he sees out his current contract.
 
Apparently Hawks have made every player except Trae Young and Jalen Johnson available for trade talks.

People focus on Murray a lot, but I would be intrigued by AJ Griffin Jr who showed great flashes in his rookie year but somehow hasnt found Quins favor and has been riding the deep end of the pine all year.

And that's what I think will happen. Lauri will renegotiate & extend.

I would love to take a shot on Griffin or Bufkin. The hawks would be wanting immediate help though and I don't think we have the pieces to make it happen.
