Bird Rights 

Post#1 » by NYG » Fri Apr 13, 2018 4:04 pm

1. Can the Hawks go over the cap to re-sign Dewayne Dedmon?
2. Can the Nets go over the cap to re-sign Joe Harris?
3. Can the Celtics go over the cap to re-sign Greg Monroe and/or Aron Baynes?

Yes to all. But by different amounts for all. You can always go over the cap to re-sign your own FAs, but are limited as to how much you can go ever depending on if you have Non-Bird, Early Bird or Bird Rights.

As an aside, I highly suggest you take a peek at the CBA FAQ. I think most of the questions you have can be answered fairly easy through there. I think you'll find it an extremely helpful resource!

Yep, the Trade Board answered my question enough to know where to start looking on the CBA FAQ
