How Much Cap Space Will Indiana Have This Summer?

Watching them against the Warrriors and just wondering if they'll have the space to go after anyone this summer?

Absolutely none. Especially with the decreasing cap/lux tax. Assuming Ford picks ups his $8.5mm player option anyway, and why wouldn't he? We're basically looking at being right at the tax limit, with zero money to spend unless we want to pay a 2:1 rate for any new player.

We do however have a number of guys that expire next season. Ford, Foster, Murphy, Dunleavy, Diener. Totals around something like $35-40 million coming off the books.
