Collins' max starting salary will be $28.1M. That's the cap room you would have to have, or the salary amount you would have to match in a trade, to give him a max deal.
The limit for the Mavs (or another team trying to get him from ATL, limited to 4 yrs and 5% raises), comes out to $120.8M over 4 years.
The limit for ATL (limited to 5 yrs and 8% raises), comes out to $163M over 5 years.
