Sorry to squash your plan but what's the most popular use of non-guaranteed contracts? They get used in salary dump deals. Now, what happens to those non-guaranteed players in salary dump deals? They get cut. Getting cut with no guarenteed money isn't a good place to be. Ariza won't risk that.
Updated the list with players that are RFA and players who probably wouldn't fit here.

Man chill out, it's not that serious. I didn't hear or read anything from them until right now. It's surprising to me that Morey didn't go after him for the cheap.
Joel Myers (Pelicans commentary, show on NBA radio) confirmed that Pelicans offered a deal for more than $9 million to Cousins and he was insulted by it. Portland explored a sign and trade for him.
wtf is taking so long to sign Capela? we need to move on to the next deal or trade Ryno.. what ever it takes!
They are giving him all the time in the world to find an offer sheet that will pay him close to what he wants and they'll match it.....but the well is pretty dry.
You do realize the Rockets are waiting on Capela to find his offer sheet. They are just being fair to him at this point. He is resigning for max or whatever comes his way no matter what. He doesn't have much a choice. The longer this takes, the better it is for the Rockets. Go sit down some where and chill.
so Clint Capela is not following James Harden on Twitter.. and didn't show up to his MVP awards ceremony. Y'all don't act like he couldn't have.
I don't know.. I heard Rumors he wants to be in L.A. and wants to be his own Man off under Harden.. someone posted that rumor here.
only 2 rfas have signed so far and the next will be Booker and Kat's extensions. Porzingis may not sign (potential drama alert!). I don't expect any other rfa to sign any time soon.
