The front offices around the league can breathe a deap breath now that they've all made the cuts and fit themselves within the salary cap. Here are the numbers heading into opening day.
LA actually has only 10 on the roster. But under the CBA, you can't avoid the cap by carrying a light roster, so the Sparks' number here includes a minimum $31,200 assessed for the currently nonexistant 11th player. Which means that they have $45,663 to spend.
Seattle — 13 — 672,827Some of the numbers will change slightly for various reasons: adjustments for late arrivals, inclusion of partial guarantees for cut players, etc.
Washington — 13 — 672,648
Charlotte — 12 — 670,331
New York — 12 — 661,082
Detroit — 12 — 660,696
Los Angeles — 11 — 658,537
Connecticut — 12 — 652,808
Houston — 11 — 651,574
