Someone else can probably explain it, since I have no idea how it actually works.
Cap space stays the same throughout the season, but cap hits go down as the contract is paid out.

Four million for Hudler? Two million at the halfway point.
One million with a quarter of the season left. etc etc. Rudimentary and simple explanation.
