    If players that don't get vaxxed and therefore can't get paid in localities that require it for indoor sporting events... what are the salary cap implications? Can teams recycle that money THIS season?

    What are these people holding out for at this point. So many people have gotten vaxxd and are perfectly fine. Their peers in the league have gotten it and are fine. Baffling really.

    Maybe Wiggins is just low key afraid of shots. I feel that to be honest I hate them too.

    $1M savings per game? In b4 they don't allow Wiggins anywhere near a Dr's office. "Here Andrew, watch this project veritas video...."

    No - because the player could get vaccinated at any time during the season and suddenly count against the cap. It would be a huge loophole to let them use the money elsewhere.
