So he comes off the books in 2022 when Young max extension kicks in. Since Rondo and Dunn are off the books than too, Atlanta is still comfortably under the tax.
I will just repeat. Collins will certainly get a max offer (unless everyone is sure Atlanta will match anything, so no one will even bother). If Atlanta is not willing to pay the max, they are trading him this TDL. I bet Atlanta takes the gamble, hopes they can resign him for less, but if not, they will pay him max. They can always trade him.
Exactly. Nobody will overpay for him at the TDL. He´ll go shopping in the summer and the Hawks will just match the offer, unless there has been some sort of silent agreement coming out of the whole Young situation.
