Not 100% confident but I think it's when a players contract gets bought out, while freeing up cap and (obviously) roster space.. It's only allowed once per every new CBA agreement

So he basically gets waived, but the teams cap space doesn't suffer like it normally would

PLZ anyone correct me if I'm wrong

If he clears waivers, bring him in.

At the worst he takes up the 15th spot and is a dleague player. At best he can develop into a good center.
