Stretching Mozgov and renouncing one of the 2 big cap holds gets us pretty close.
Renouncing the largest cap hold and stretching mozgov would still only leave us with like 12m of cap space.

Sorry to break it to you, but you’re terribly off.
This doesn’t get us close at all and not even in the ballpark.
Renouncing everyone but Vucevic still puts over the cap around 4m
Renouncing both Vucevic and Ross puts us under the cap around 27m
Both scenarios include stretch and waiving Mosgov
A trade of one or both of Augustine and Fournier would have to happen.
Hmm...
AG 19.8
EF 17
TM 5.6 (16.7 stretched)
Vuc renounced
TRoss 13 cap hold
MF 9.7
DJ 7.25
JI 5.8
MB 5.6
WI 1.6
MFjr 1.4
#16 2.1
= 88.85
1st year DAR max = 24.9 iirc
so we'd be at 113, the cap is at 109 isn't it? Decline Iwundu's option, waive Frazier and his beer belly and you're there. Unless I forgot someone/something which is definitely possible.
Didn’t know you were renouncing Ross instead of Vucevic regardless makes no difference.
Frazier’s fat belly is guaranteed money and no one is renouncing Iwunduds small cap hold, that would be idiotic.
Stretching Mozgov, renouncing Vucevic and keeping Ross cap hold (even renouncing Birch which I think is highly improbable) puts us at under the cap around 13m
Stretching Mozgov, renouncing Ross and keeping Vucevic cap hold (even renouncing Birch which I think is highly improbable) puts us over the cap around 3m
Stretching Mozgov, renouncing BOTH Ross and Vucevic cap hold’s (even renouncing Birch which I think is highly improbable) puts us under the cap around 27m
Again, regardless of the scenario a trade needs to happen to be real players in free agency because no one is coming to a depleted Magic team.
