Max Cap Room
$5.2 million Taxpayer Mid-Level Exception

Potential Free Agents

• Dante Exum ($3.2 million non-guaranteed salary)

• Derrick Jones, Jr. ($2.1 million cap hold, Non-Bird Rights, Unrestricted)

• Markieff Morris ($2.1 million cap hold, Non-Bird Rights, Unrestricted)

• Jaden Hardy ($2 million non-guaranteed salary)

• AJ Lawson ($2. 1million non-guaranteed salary)

Summary

Even if the Mavericks lose all their potential free agents, they won't have meaningful cap room, barring major trades. If the Mavs keep Exum and Hardy, they will be right at the luxury tax and about $7 million below the apron with 12 players under contract. Therefore, it's likely they will just have the $5.2 million Taxpayer MLE to add players unless they waive and stretch Tim Hardaway Jr's $16.2 million contract, or shed money in trades, which could open up the $12.9 million Non-Taxpayer Mid-Level Exception or the $4.7 million Bi-Annual Exception.
