That doesn't include a new deal for Wiggins, whose contract ends this season, was a key player (and All-Star) for them last season, and whose max salary would be $45M.
It's possible (although it surely seems far-fetched they would decide to go here, to be sure) that GS's tax bill for 2023-24 could be HALF A BILLION dollars. Tax. For just one season. A max deal for Wiggins, added to their other commitments, puts them in that vicinity.
