Analyzing qualifying offers

I'm figuring out qualifying offers (QO) for late first-round NBA picks. If they don't meet starter criteria, the QO is about $7 million, but it increases significantly if they do. For picks 11-30, the QO could rise to 125% or even 300% of the fourth-year salary if they meet those criteria. The Nets may hesitate to tender an offer if it rises too high, turning the player into an unrestricted free agent. I should present general implications and check if the user wants verification.Discussing trade options for Thomas

I’m considering a range of ideas involving protected first-round picks or multiple second-rounders along with younger talent. Potential teams needing bench scoring include the Magic, Jazz, Hornets, Pistons, and Spurs. Some contenders like the Suns and Lakers might also need second-unit scoring. It’s essential to keep this generic and mention playoffs teams lacking in-ball scoring or rebuilding teams open to evaluating a contract extension.

If a high-priced extension isn't desired, trade value could be limited. I should also mention a timeline to shop before the deadline to avoid losing a player or assets, possibly discussing sign-and-trade options. Finally, I can offer to track updates and confirm details from sources without specifically asking for permission to browse.
