Not sure if I’m making much sense. If we were to trade Brouwer now with 50% retained, and the other team buys him out, does the other team’s decision to buy him out affect our cap hit / duration, as if he were bought out by us (but 50% cheaper)?

Yes, the amount owed by the original team will become a percentage of the buyout equal to whatever the retained percentage is...
