Post The New CBA Rules How Will The 2024 Trade Deadline Work?

The buyout market is dessert if the NBA trade deadline is supper. In the larger scheme of things, its usually more significant than the main course and usually occurs after the trade activity has ended. Many contenders have not had the assets to execute significant in-season transactions during the all-in era.

Rather, they bide their time till the dust settles. A few veteran players with large, frequently expiring contracts are assigned to poor clubs or end up there by default.

In return for a little monetary return on the balance of their contracts, those organizations agree to give the players free agency, allowing them to sign with any rival of their choosing. Frequently, they end up playing more prominent roles deep in the playoffs than their more valuable blockbuster counterparts.

Though it is the first deadline under the new collective bargaining agreement (CBA) and the final before the CBA’s tough limitations on excessive spenders take effect, this year’s deadline could be different. Franchises whose payrolls exceed the luxury tax level by $17.5 million, a new cutoff known as the “second apron,” may see significant restrictions on their ability to transact beginning this summer.

These groups won’t be capable of:

  • Aggregate contracts to trade for a single player making more money
  • Send out cash in trades
  • Use trade exceptions from prior years
  • Take back more incoming than outgoing salary in a deal.

Last season, the NBA and NBPA reached a new collective bargaining agreement that significantly limited the ways in which the league’s most costly clubs could acquire new players. While the majority of those limitations won’t take effect until the 2024–2025 season, one big adjustment has already been made.

A player who has been bought out during the season cannot be signed by any club above the first luxury tax threshold as of this season, unless the player’s prior salary was less than the non-taxpayer mid-level exemption.

Five teams—the Suns, Bucks, Celtics, Clippers, and Golden State Warriors—are presently predicted by Spotrac to end the 2023–24 season more than $17.5 million over the luxury tax threshold. By 2024–2025, four more teams have a good chance of making it there. Before they sold Steven Adams to the Houston Rockets on February 1, the Memphis Grizzlies were expected to finish above the second tier the following season.

Large-spending teams could strive to reduce their compensation or use the opportunity to use their transactional flexibility while it’s still available. Many other organizations, meanwhile, will be reluctant to pursue players who have large future debts.

These regulations prevent the Bucks and other teams from trading first-round choices. Just 11 of the 30 clubs in the league own 75% of the tradeable first-round selections, as ESPN’s Bobby Marks noted.

What then might we anticipate from the February buyout market? We’re mostly speculating right now. We have no idea who will be dealt or which veterans from struggling clubs will be interested in joining a potential winner. Anticipate that certain names we talk about below will remain in place while others we overlook will eventually change hands.
