2. He’s due a $45m roster bonus is 6 years
3. He’s getting $140m guaranteed (this may be wrong as I think it was an injury guarantee but until I hear differently I’m going with it)
That means once the extension kicks in he’ll be counting $14m per year in bonus money and $310m minus $45m in base salary
That comes out to an average cap hit until 2026 of $265m divided by 10 plus $14m in pro-rated bonus or around $40.5m per year and maybe less depending on what the out years look like.
For the next few years we have him (cap-wise) for a bargain.

Damn did I have that wrong (and it’s even better than I thought):
