Shamit Dua: Roughly $7.9 Million of Zion’s contract is guaranteed next season if he is waived before 7/15. He hit his weight benchmarks. This means if the Pelicans waive him, they won’t really have functional cap space. Which is whatever, they can still act as an “above the cap” team and retain the full 14M NTMLE and their trade exception from this past year.
