[Charania] Sources: Luke Kornet's deal with Chicago: Fully guaranteed two years for $4.5M.

I think slightly over. we had ~23M in space, renounced shaq and lemon for an additional ~2.6, total of ~25.6M. signed Thad to a flat 3/40, so there goes 13.3, Sato gets 9.5 next year, so we've got 22.8 assigned, about 3M left in cap.

Ryan re-signs with bird rights so that explains how we were able to afford his 3M contract, since you can go over the cap to re-sign with that. This means Kornet is being signed for the partial room exception (a separate 4.7M pocket teams under the cap get).

If we waited to sign Arch after getting someone, I believe we would have a little under 3M in space left in cap. However, Ryan's contract is in the books so I think we're (including Kornet) like 5M over the cap with only the vet min to offer.

this is extremely shoddy cap math though. I'm no Ryan Borja
