I don't recall a guy getting bought out and then landing an above MLE level deal the next year. In fact I think usually the contracts are pretty sub-par.
Dallas did it with DWill.
Situation was different in that Brooklyn bought him out with multiple years left and Dallas made up the rest of the buyout. When that timeframe was up, he got more than the MLE.
