NBA News: Josh Green Swapped for Cody Williams

Charania followed up by sharing that Konchar, a 30-year-old wing rebounding specialist, will see his $6.2 million contract waived-and-stretched, incurring roughly $2 million in dead cap space for the next three years. Konchar could've been an interesting end-of-bench option, but alas the Wolves are filled to the brim at his position.

Josh Green, who was just on a team-wide outing in France , was the unfortunate salary dump that needed to happen in order to make the Jonathan Kuminga deal legal per salary cap regulations. Despite being a potential Donte DiVincenzo replacement on the roster, Green's $14.7 million was the only realistic salary that could be moved to make enough room for Kuminga to join via the tax-payer mid-level exception. Many had theorized if there were no takers for Green, Minnesota could have entertained a waive-and-stretch of his contract, incurring a near $5 million cap hit for three years.

Instead they nearly halved that while taking a flyer on a 21-year-old top 10 draft pick, Cody Williams.
