Bobby Marks: Some notes for Denver - Denver is 1.3M over the 2nd apron and has 2 roster spots open - They will create a trade exception for 50% of PW's salary. However, they are not allowed to use or exceed the 2nd apron because this is a s/t. - The Nuggets had zero tradeable firsts before this trade. Bobby Marks: Notes for Cleveland - Sign-and-trade hard caps them at the first apron - Before re-signing James Harden, they are roughly $29M below the first apron - They have no tradeable firsts available right now. Bobby Marks: For the Clippers, the Max Stus $16.6M expiring contract goes into the $17M John Collins trade exception. Including the $8.7M Benedict Mathurin Qualifying Offer, LAC is $11.7M below the first apron.
