1.) He´s unlikely to get more in FA.
2.) He opts in, he´s probably looking at Klay/DeRozan type money in 2026, which then equals out to less than 100 over three years anyway.
Therefore I think the Mavs look at Kyrie as one salary cap massaging vehicle.
We are on a similar page here. 3/$100mm is what I was thinking also. My thought is that the third year might be guaranteed for only $10-$20 million so that if he only plays two years, the salary is similar to $40/year, but the cap impact in those years is only $30/year.
