Is it cap circumvention if you sign him to an $11m or $12m 1yr extension, then a 5-year $6.5-$7m aav when that expires? (essentially having a bit more than Bennett's potential raise impact the team's cap space next year rather than in two years time)

You would need to trade Wideman after signing 13 and 23, but it could save us a lot of headaches when the team's cup window is wide open!
