1 Does anyone have the actual rookie scale, for new season, after the reset?
2 Does anyone have the actual minimums, for new season, after the reset?
3 Are MLE, BAE etc rounded? Or are the numbers we're seeing in media slightly off?
...ie, by the math, the room MLE would be $8,641,486. But I'm seeing $8.641M in reports. So I am wondering which will be the actual number.

A link to a page with the actual numbers would be helpful, if there is one.

I'm sure you may have already found them by now, but here you go:

Cap & Exceptions: https://basketball.realgm.com/nba/info/salary_cap

Rookie Scale (100%, not 120%): https://basketball.realgm.com/nba/info/rookie_scale

Minimum Scale: https://basketball.realgm.com/nba/info/minimum_scale

Exceptions are rounded after the 1000th place.

This tweet has the correct rounding of Rookie Scale with 120%:

Total aside: I wish we'd just get the Rookie Scale with 120% loaded, since it is so rare that anyone takes less. But that is just a pet peeve of mine.
