Seems like there is some cap space for next year if you do not re-sign and deny player option on WCS. I am not saying there are any free agents worth that salary but some combination of FAs might fit under what is available.

If we let THJ, Redick, Melli, WCS, and Boban walk, J-Rich opts out and we don't pursue him, then yeah, we have a little cap room. The projection right now is 112mill
With only nine guys on the roster, we'd have roughly 25 million to spend. If we keep WCS, then it's only 21 million. If J-Rich opts in, then we have like 11-14 million.
The max for a young player is 28 mill so even with the most peachy predictions, we don't even have one max slot, but we could potentially get a decent player with that or absorb that amount of salary in a trade.
Redick can also sign a vet min of around 3mill and it won't impact our cap. Don't know if he'd accept it, but we could get him back on the cheap.
We also can trade Green and our 2021 FRP as long as the deal doesn't get finalized until draft night.
