Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 3123193, member: 833"] How is that going to happen? [URL="https://www.basketball-reference.com/contracts/CHO.html"]Charlotte Hornets Team Payroll | Basketball-Reference.com[/URL] Charlotte is at $102 million next season (assuming all the player contract options are exercised, which I expect to happen) BEFORE they sign Kemba. The cap will be $109 million, and Luxury Tax will kick in at $132 million. Jordan would have to match every dollar over the LT level back to the NBA. I don't see that happening. If Charlotte can dump some contracts, then maybe they can keep Kemba, but Charlotte has been shopping the bad contracts (Batum, Williams, Kidd Gilchrist) for years, and no one wants them. [/QUOTE]
