In this mock offseason, I explain why the Pistons are likely to operate as an over the cap team instead of using cap space. I then use their flexibility to re-sign all their role players to team-friendly deals, then trade for Jaren Jackson Jr. and Naz Reid.

In this mock offseason, I analyze the Wolves' salary cap situation, contract projections for Julius Randle, Naz Reid, and Nickeil Alexander-Walker, and try to fit them all within the second apron.

The Clippers were pegged to be the worst team in the Pacific division by many after losing Paul George. They overachieved, made the playoffs, and almost advanced to the second round. But is this team capped with this result? They have few players with upside and few draft picks to trade. They'll need to upgrade their high-end talent and make some significant improvements if they're going to make a deep playoff run.In this video, I analyze the Clippers' salary cap situation for their upcoming offseason, negotiate new contracts for James Harden and Norman Powell, add some bench pieces, and trade for Jrue Holiday.Clippers offseason preview: https://www.thirdapron.com/p/los-angeles-clippers-2025-offseason-85bClippers offseason discussion: https://youtube.com/live/enZ0j0_43BcPROMO: I'll be a Salary Cap instructor at Sports Business Classroom (SBC) this summer.

The pressure is on for the Memphis Grizzlies to improve the roster this summer. But before they can do that, they need to secure the future of one of their stars. Jaren Jackson Jr. didn't qualify for the supermax so they'll need to get creative in extending him. After that, they'll have an opportunity to be aggressive on the trade market to bring in another forward.In this video, I analyze the Grizzlies' salary cap situation for their upcoming offseason, renegotiate and extend Jackson Jr.'s contract, re-sign Santi Aldama to a front-loaded contract, and trade for Cameron Johnson.Grizzlies offseason preview: https://www.thirdapron.com/p/memphis-grizzlies-2025-offseason-656Grizzlies offseason discussion: https://youtube.com/live/iY2FkopXnwwPROMO: I'll be a Salary Cap instructor at Sports Business Classroom (SBC) this summer.

The New Orleans Pelicans' 2024-25 season ended before it began. They didn't have a chance due to all their injuries, including a long-term one for Dejounte Murray. To top it all off, they fell three spots in the lottery. They'll be in a position to select one in the draft, but they seem far away from being competitive again. The new front office could look to be aggressive this summer to bolster the roster.In this video, I analyze the Pelicans salary cap situation for their upcoming offseason, facilitate a Giannis trade that allows them to trade up for Dylan Harper, and acquire a veteran center in Domantas Sabonis.Pelicans offseason preview: https://www.thirdapron.com/p/new-orleans-pelicans-offseason-previewPelicans offseason discussion: https://youtube.com/live/0bOuGbcV5FYPROMO: I'll be a Salary Cap instructor at Sports Business Classroom (SBC) this summer.

The Philadelphia 76ers lucked out by keeping their pick and seeing it rise to the top 3. They now have the challenge of fielding a competitive team while keeping expenses controlled. They already have a high payroll before re-signing Quentin Grimes and Guerschon Yabusele. They'll need to save money, but it probably won't be from trading Paul George.In this video, I analyze the Sixers' salary cap situation for their upcoming offseason, re-sign Quentin Grimes and Guerschon Yabusele to new contracts, and trade down from #3 for extra draft picks.Sixers offseason preview: https://www.thirdapron.com/p/philadelphia-76ers-2025-offseasonSixers offseason discussion: https://youtube.com/live/YlwNmJYe0KQ PROMO:I'll be a Salary Cap instructor at Sports Business Classroom (SBC) this summer.

The Dallas Mavericks sacrificed their future for a two-year title window when they traded Luka Doncic for Anthony Davis. That window may have already closed with Kyrie Irving tearing his ACL. But now they have a future by lucking out with the top selection in the upcoming draft. When you get a second chance at a generational player, the practical thing to do is trade your veterans now and build around him. But the Mavs seem unlikely to do that. They appear prepared to see things through with this group and worry about their future later.In this video, I analyze the Mavericks' salary cap situation for their upcoming offseason, re-sign Kyrie Irving to a new contract, and trade for Derrick White, a player I could see them targeting.Mavericks offseason preview: https://www.thirdapron.com/p/dallas-mavericks-2025-offseason-previewMavericks offseason discussion: https://youtube.com/live/7J5o1tppGZwPROMO: I'll be a Salary Cap instructor at Sports Business Classroom (SBC) this summer.

The San Antonio Spurs jumped in the lottery for a third straight year. They are now loaded with up to six first-round picks to trade, including the second overall selection in the upcoming 2025 draft. They also have several young players of interest, but I think they're going to try to keep them all. De'Aaron Fox nudging his way to San Antonio was just the tip of the iceberg. It feels like Giannis Antetokounmpo will consider the Spurs as a preferred destination and they might have the most attractive package for him.In this video, I analyze the Spurs salary cap situation for the upcoming season and show what is required from them to acquire Antetokounmpo.Spurs offseason preview: https://www.thirdapron.com/p/san-antonio-spurs-five-big-decisionsSpurs offseason discussion: https://youtu.be/YrCowG9BYmUPROMO: I'll be a Salary Cap instructor at Sports Business Classroom (SBC) this summer.
