The Portland Trail Blazers will likely guarantee the $12.9 million salary owed to Josh Hart for next season, which would eliminate them from a major potential free agency signing.
The Blazers have a deadline of June 25th to guarantee Hart's contract, which is several days before the start of free agency.
The Blazers have a $20.9 million trade exception from their trade of CJ McCollum to the New Orleans Pelicans.
