Emoni Bates restricted free agency 2024?

So, how does this work. Emoni Bates was a second round pick who has never signed a pro contract, instead he took a one year 2-way deal with the Cleveland Cavs. He's set to become a restricted free agent this Summer, but what does that mean? His QO is very low, just $1.8M.
But how much can an NBA team offer him? Or is he only a free-agent as far as the G-League is concerned?
Did the Cavaliers lose his draft rights somehow? If this is the case, wouldn't they had been potentially better off to draft and stash him overseas where they'd retain his rights until he was ready to come over?
