The NBA has alerted teams to the impending release of adjusted 2020-21 salary and luxury tax projections, signaling the likelihood that a decline in revenue will cause a drop in the figures, league sources told ESPN. The league office is expected to deliver revised projections as soon as Thursday, an accommodation that allows teams to make more informed financial and roster decisions ahead of the Feb. 6 trade deadline

on more reading it is NOT a lowering of the salary cap from this year...just lowering form the PROJECTED $116M cap for next year down to about $113M.

What's this year's cap? Is $113M up or down?

Danny has been a master at managing the CAP

While we have few middle class salaries like the one Smart has, Danny has used the draft and FA to build the depth at very reasonable prices.

Jaylen's new salary kicks in next fall and if GH opts out to resign maybe for a few dollar less the team should be fine. Tatum is almost certain to ink a new deal in October but that new deal will not be effective until 2021.

The prospect of having 4 max players seems unavoidable. Not a lot of wiggle room.
