What free agents we go for really depends on what trades we make around the draft. If we trade for KD, we will probably only have around $8M if we want to stay under the tax. If we don’t, we should have the full NTPMLE which is around $14M.

Our biggest hole is the backup center position. Santi Aldama and Luke Kornet would be great there but they may be looking for a starting role elsewhere. I assume Brook Lopez and Naz Reid will be too expensive. I think we are going to have to bring back Biyombo and/or Bassey but maybe we could try Thomas Bryant.

Our next issue is shooting. Luke Kennard and Sam Merrill are snipers that we could probably afford. Keon Ellis, NAW, and Taurean Prince would all be great 3&D players off the bench but we will definitely need the full NTPMLE to afford them.
