2016 RFA Exercise Rights
Posted: Wed Aug 09, 2017 6:47 pm
As a reminder, RFA rules are here: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=95
OUTSTANDING LUXURY TAX BILL LIST: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=2468
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." Note that one of the penalties for having luxury tax payments outstanding is that you are not permitted to exercise RFA rights; if you are not paid up by the close of the exercise period, your players will become UFAs. This is the only reminder I will give you. Only posts exercising or declining RFA rights should go in this thread. Questions should go in the RFA rules thread linked above.
