Dallas Mavericks have team options on the following:

Dirk Nowitzki $25,000,000
Devin Harris $ 4,402,546
Yogi Ferrell $ 1,312,000
AJ Hammons $ 905,249
Dorian Finney-Smith $ 905,249
Nicolas Brussino $ 905,249

Total $33,430,253

Assuming a $102 million salary cap ($122 million luxury cap), and the Mavericks sign everyone to the team options, they have $12,638,133 left and 4 roster spots to fill. I figure that Nerlens Noel will demand a significant raise, potentially eating up all of that cap space and some of the luxury cap space. Is it possible for the Mavericks to sign anyone beyond a player willing to accept the MLE?
We can use Noel 11M cap hold and then go over the cap to sign him. Gives much added flexibility. This was truly a great trade by Donnie. Having his rights as RFA is huge.
