While this year is starting to close down, the 2019 free agency period could be a great haul.
From what everyone seems to say, we will have about $20 million available in FA money next summer. But there are opportunities to clear space.
1. Trade the picks. There will be an $8 to $10 million cap hold for those picks depending on when they fall.
2. Chriss ($4.1 million), Bender ($5.8 million), and Jackson ($7.1 million) will all be on team options. They can be released. I know that seems extreme, but if you need to do that in order to sign a top FA, the net is similar to a trade.
3. Stretch Knight. Knight will be owed $14.6 million next year. Stretching him could create another 9.7 million.
Anyone want to talk about potential targets?
