Miami's Cap Situation
Posted: Thu Feb 7, 2008 2:21 pm
Assuming Marion opts out and they don't resign any of their current players how much do they have to spend on Free Agents?
Now most are in the know that Marion has $17,810,000 player option next season. If he uses it..
Miami's salary situaion as follows(my math could be off a little bit, didn't recheck)-
Dwyane Wade-$14,410,581
Mark Blount-$8,513,916
Udonis Haslem-$6,575,000
Marcus Banks-$4,260,000
Smush Parker-$2,430,000(player opt.)
Dorell Wright $2,910,104(cap hold)
Daequan Cook-$1,273,200
= 40,003,555
If Miami renounces Dorell Wright's 2.9 milliion dollar cap hold, Miami would then be at about 38 mil and some change....
Salary cap is projected is in between around 58-59 million next season...
We would be projected to be about 21 milion under the salary cap next season...

That being said, I don't think Marion will opt out (not enough teams with capspace), which would leave minimal space under the cap.
