Ending this season as a tax team would make them a "repeater tax team" next season.
The Mavericks were taxpayers in 2022-23 and 2024-25. They will be taxpayers this season (2025-26)
They would become repeater taxpayers in 2026-27 (because that would make 3 of the prior 4 years over the tax line).
So Klay by himself misses it by a couple hundred thousand. Gafford + Exum doesn't quite get their either. Seems like getting out of repeater tax would make a lot of sense. Will be a lot harder to shed salary in the offseason.
