1999 RFA - Exercise/Decline RFA Rights
Posted: Wed Jan 28, 2015 12:57 pm
Below is a list of the potential Restricted Free Agents and their current status (unrestricted or restricted).
The deadline for exercising RFA rights will be the end of the rookie draft. If you do nothing, it is assumed you are declining to exercise your RFA "right to match" and these players will become Unrestricted Free Agents. Exercising RFA rights means your available cap space will be reduced by the noted amount during the RFA bidding period. Please refer to the RFA Explanation thread for questions and ask them in that thread, not this one.
To exercise a player's RFA rights, you must post in this thread with the name of the player whose rights you are exercising and note "Exercise Rights" for example: "Hawks exercise RFA rights on Antonio McDyess." Only posts exercising or declining RFA rights should go in this thread. Questions should go in the RFA rules thread linked above.
LAST UPDATE: Heat decline Ostertag
