Cavaliers do not have available cap space nor suitable TPEs to use to sign Ingram, Brown, Anunoby, and Hunter.

This trade would result in the Cavaliers crossing the tax apron of ($143.0M) while hardcapped. Therefore this trade is not possible. Remove $68.2M of incoming value to remain below the hard cap.

Hard Cap Reasons

Acquired Lauri Markkanen from the Bulls via sign-and-trade.

Cavaliers are unable to complete this trade. Since they are now a taxpaying team after this trade, they are only able to take back 125% of the salary they are sending out, plus $100,000.

Cavaliers can only take back $100K in salary based on the amount they are sending out.

Cut $78.0M from the Cavaliers incoming trade value to make this trade successful for the Cavaliers.
