Answering a popular question:
The Dallas Mavericks and Golden State Warriors aren't really players in the buyout market. Neither is over the apron, because they can't be, as both are hard-capped at the first apron.
The challenge for them in adding players is that both have very little wiggle room under that hard cap.
Dallas = $171K under the hard cap. That allows for a Vet Minimum signing in late-March
Golden State = $1.8M under the hard cap, but with 3-4 roster spots to fill.
