Question: If Trade Is Voided & We Trade Crowder, Don't Re-Sign IT...

[CelticsQuestFor18]

Does that mean we would now actually have enough space for 1 max signing next summer?

Of course, assuming we let all our FA's-to-be walk except Smart (w/Bird Rights). Or would we have to let go of Smart too to make this happen...?

Don't think so unfortunately especially if they re-sign Smart.

Maybe someone has a better answer? (Calling you, @salt!)

No. We have $72 million tied up with just 4 players (Hayward, Horford, Tatum, and Brown), so even if we traded everyone but those guys we wouldn't have enough room (due to cap holds on empty roster spots, picks, etc.).

The only way we could get a max FA this summer would be if we sign and traded for them using Hayward, Horford, or maybe IT (but that might not actually be possible depending on where the apron ends up next year, since S&Ts hard cap you at the apron)

sorry for having to ask, but is the cap for next year the same as for this year? thanks.
