October 21 News The NBA 2025-26 season is about to begin, and the lineups of each team have been basically determined.

In terms of salary, the Cavaliers are currently the only team in the league whose total salary in the new season exceeds the second richest line, 229 million, exceeding the second richest line (207 million) by 22 million.

The Cavaliers' current luxury tax bill reaches a huge 163 million, but this is not the final result. If the Cavaliers reduce their salary through transactions and other methods in the new season, they will pay less tax or even no tax. The league calculates the luxury tax based on the team's total payroll on the last day of the regular season.

After passing the second rich line, the team will face many restrictions. It cannot use the mid-level exception, cannot package two or more players for trade, cannot send cash in the transaction, and cannot use the transaction exception obtained in the previous sign-and-trade to introduce players.
