That 1.75 Billion split between 32 teams is almost 55 million per team. Split in half for the CBA means the cap gets a boost of over 27 million. That’s on the low end.
Just wait till the new TV contracts are negotiated with new players in the “live sporting events” space pushing those prices to astronomical new highs.
The cap is going to completely explode the next 5 years.
Smart teams are trying to get stars inked to long term deals now because after the new CBA is done, lots of teams are going to have nearly endless cap space and FA deals are going to become even more ridiculous.
