2019/20 Players' Transactions: Breaking News , Trades, Free Agents, And Rumors

11 millions is 10% of the cap. Dollars unattached to a scale can’t be judged. Is Dedmon worth 10% of cap? I think pretty obviously yes.

 

So here's who is still left:

PG: Elfrid Payton, Rajon Rondo, Emmanuel Mudiay, TJ McConnell, Jeremy Lin, Delon Wright (R), Tyus Jones (R), Nando De Colo, JJ Barea, Quinn Cook (R), Alex Caruso, Jerian Grant, Jerryd Bayless, Shabazz Napier, Ryan Arcidiacono, Devin Harris, Shane Larkin, Raymond Felton, Shelvin Mack, Milos Teodosic, Tim Frazier, Brad Wanamaker, Jose Calderon, Isaiah Canaan, Chasson Randle, Cameron Payne, Ron Baker, Briante Weber, Isaiah Briscoe, Ty Lawson, Norris Cole, Edmond Sumner (R),

SG: Kawhi Leonard, Wesley Matthews, Austin Rivers, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Seth Curry, Alec Burks, Justin Holiday, Lance Stephenson, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, David Nwaba, Vince Carter, Rodney McGruder (R), Iman Shumpert, Nik Stauskas, Jamal Crawford, Jodie Meeks, Justin Anderson, Troy Daniels, Alex Abrines, Wayne Selden, Ian Clark, Patrick McCaw (R), Furkan Korkmaz, Jimmer Fredette, John Jenkins, MarShon Brooks, Tyler Dorsey, Nick Young, Ben McLemore, Jordan Crawford, Damion Lee (R), Brandon Paul, PJ Dozier,

SF: Danny Green, Jabari Parker, Kelly Oubre (R), James Ennis, Wilson Chandler, Thabo Sefolosha, Sam Dekker, Stanley Johnson, Jake Layman (R), Corey Brewer, Luc Mbah a Moute, Darius Miller, Luol Deng, Glenn Robinson III, JaKarr Sampson, Wesley Johnson, Troy Williams (R), Quincy Pondexter, Mindaugas Kuzminskas, Thanasis Antetokounmpo, Devin Robinson, Mitch Creek (R), Alex Poythress, Shabazz Muhammad

PF: Marcus Morris, Kenneth Faried, Markieff Morris, Jeff Green, JaMychal Green, Carmelo Anthony, Anthony Tolliver, Jonas Jerebko, Trey Lyles (R), Omri Casspi, Dorian Finney-Smith, Michael Beasley, Quincy Acy, Henry Ellenson, Derrick Williams, Chris Singleton, Zach Randolph, Johnathan Motley, Udonis Haslem,

C: DeMarcus Cousins, Willie Cauley-Stein, Enes Kanter, Javale McGee, Ivica Zubac, Boban Marjanovic, Kevon Looney, Frank Kaminsky, Maxi Kleber, Daniel Theis (R), Pau Gasol, Nene, Joakim Noah, Noah Vonleh, Richaun Holmes, Amir Johnson, Zaza Pachulia, Jordan Bell (R), Marcin Gortat, Greg Monroe, Salah Mejri, Tyson Chandler, Kosta Koufos, Ekpe Udoh, Cheick Diallo, Kehm Birch (R), Gustavo Ayon, Luke Kornet, Donatas Motiejunas, Tyler Zeller, Kevin Seraphin, Johnathan Williams (R), Andrew Nicholson, Alan Williams,

 

Let's say we get Kawhi. I want to quickly move on:

Danny Green- Room Exception
Rajon Rondo- Minimum
Alex Caruso- Minimum
Jeff Green- Minimum
Jodie Meeks- Minimum
Richaun Holmes- Minimum
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope- Minimum
Carmelo Anthony- Minimum (mostly because I expect it)

If we can get Seth Curry, Wes Matthews, Willie Cauley-Stein, DeMarcus Cousins, TJ McConnell, Jeremy Lin, Enes Kanter, Kenneth Faried, Justin Holiday, or either of the Morrises for the minimum, I'd love them too but I think they get bigger offers elsewhere. Still, I think with this group you really sell them on opportunities, minutes, and role. So let's say you're able to nab Seth Curry or TJ McConnell here with a guaranteed starting spot.

I'd also see if Tyson Chandler wants to come back for the minimum. He's just a vet add at this point, but a good locker room presence. Same offer to Pau Gasol.

Seth Curry/Rajon Rondo/Alex Caruso
Danny Green/Kentavious Caldwell-Pope/Jodie Meeks/Talen Horton-Tucker
Kawhi Leonard/Carmelo Anthony
LeBron James/Kyle Kuzma/Jeff Green
Anthony Davis/Richaun Holmes/Tyson Chandler

Johnanthan Williams on a 2-way contract with that kid from summer league.

Something like that anyway. Maybe instead of Seth Curry, you have start Rondo or Caruso, but you'd have 4 capable shooters so I wouldn't be too worried about it.
