Minnesota Cap Status

Post #1 » by **Bensational** » Wed May 23, 2012 5:23 am

Sorry if this has been covered somewhere before. Mods, please lock/merge if so.

I was wondering what the TWolves' cap situation was like this summer. I saw on Shamsports a bunch of unguaranteed contracts, but it doesn't specify if the deals are partial or completely unguaranteed.

Anyone have any idea what each contract will be worth if you guys choose to not pick them up?

Just looking at it quickly, if you were to let Beasley go, and release Webster and Miller (and their contracts are fully unguaranteed) then your team salary could be sitting just below $40M. who would you target with $18-20M to spare? Or would you be more inclined to hold off until next summer, when there are plenty bigger names available?

Here's the TL;DR version

If...
1) Miller retires
2) Randolph and Beasley aren't offered QO
3) Trolliver's rights renounced
$52,874,707

4) If Webster is waived (in addition to 1-3 occurring)
$47,762,707

5) If Milicic retires or is amnestied (in addition to 1-4 occurring)
$42,534,707

The salaries don't include these cap holds which can be eliminated if their rights are renounced.
#18 pick = $1,237,500
Michael Beasley = $12,524,694
Anthony Randolph = $7,278,078
Anthony Tolliver = $2,665,000
