Well, buying him out now means the cap hit is $1.5, $1.5, $1.5, 1.5.

Buying him out next year is $4.5, $1.5, $1.5, $0.

So, in exchange for $1.5 million in dead cap space in 2021-22, we reclaim $3 million in cap space this year AND we open a roster spot for a better player.

That's a bargain at this point.
