With what cap space ?

They have the taxpayer mid-level exception which they can use to sign either player (or a different veteran) and I’m thinking Horford could sign for the vet minimum (or whatever they have available) to ring chase since he’s 39. He could also be interested in playing with his friend, mentee, and Dominican national teammate, KAT.

Taxpayer exception likely puts the past second apron, depending on their available roster spots. Also, I'm not sure that Spencer isn't washed. I'll trust the FO to make that determination if he is FA candidate.

It does not. 5:50 mark for the numbers.

Top 7 rotation players, 4 youngins in Huk WhoYourDaddy Kolek McCullar, 2 vet mins leaves you $7m below second apron.

Pick your poison.

What are you guys planning to do with Bridges who is extension eligible and going into the last year of his contract?

Besides hard capping you at 2nd apron the tax payer MLE is also a 2 year deal so it messes with 26/27 as well especially when if you have to extend guys like say Mikal.

Salary dump Hart in the 2026 offseason. He will have one year left so his contract will be easier to move and we can package it with a 2nd

Doesn’t put you past but hard caps you at 2nd apron.

Yes. Not fully sure, but I think the only way you can go above the 2nd Apron is to resign one of your own players or to sign a Rookie Draft pick.
