Home / Features / 2017 Offseason Possibilities Part Two: Operating Above the Cap
In part one of the offseason possibilities piece, I took a look at the Pelicans options if they were to try and operate under the salary cap this summer. That route opened up the possibility of the Pelicans getting another top-end player, but also make the roster very top-heavy, with very little quality depth beyond the top five or six guys.
Operating above the cap will likely do the opposite, as it gives the Pelicans a chance to add several quality rotation players but no single high impact difference maker.
