Dort deal likely came down to one thing: He wanted an extension and wasn’t going to get one. The two pieces hanging over the lack of an extension: 1) Wallace is extension eligible with his salary bump happening next season AND 2) Shai’s salary is scheduled to jump $20 million starting next season. That’s basically a guaranteed $40+ million more in payroll before anything else in 2027-28.
