    Frank Ntilikina I hope.

    Or a FRP.

    Do Rockets need to dump salary first to take in a player?

    TPE + Omari Spellman? + future 2nd?
    I doubt Spellman, but I could see the other 2 parts

    Knicks can’t just sign him outright?

    This would be great!

    Omari, TPE + SRP is fair value.

    Wooten might be gone if so.

    Omari immediately becomes 3rd center.

    Increase in the TPE which currently stands at ~3m and could increase to about ~6m I believe. This would allow us to sign another guy for around that much which is a pretty solid figure and could gain us a solid player. To put it into perspective Baynes and Bradley got about 6m.

    TPE would be amazing. Use it with House and Gordon to fill out the gap for Buddy Hield

    A couple of points.

    You can't combine exceptions.

    We already have a $9.8 MLE that we can't use because we are hard capped.
