Sorry stupid hoopshype was already excluding players salaries with a team option. Assuming they pick up those players, here is an approximation of what the cap space will be barring them completely denouncing the rights to Julius Randle.Thanks. So that could be $85 M if Deng and JC are shipped out, right?

Right now, doing nothing, we would have about $39M (estimating the cap holds) in cap room. We would have to get rid of deng and JC to sign 2 max contract players. Could also stretch Deng to get a little bit more.
They have a team option on Ingram, Nance, and Zubac. Im assuming they would pick those up.
