One thing that I love is the drive to the foul line for a jumper. He's done it a few times already, and it's pretty difficult to contest. Reminds me of Sprewells slash and shot. Drive into the heart of the defence and valt up.

Yeah and thats exactly the kind of shot that both pascal and OG should have too. Fred maybe moreso due his size, but he'd need more space to get it off.

OG has to continue working on his upfake-take-the-bump-andone, a lot more than he does his floater or his pullup. He obviously should work on those too, but I have a hard time picturing him being natural at either, so power-game it is. In the midrange it looks like his fadeaway is coming along.
Trent is a different story, definitely going to need that giant-killer. And how bout that pass to the corner last night?

http://www.cbafaq.com/salarycap.htm#Q42
However, a player coming off a standard NBA contract (not a Two-Way contract) may qualify for a higher or lower qualifying offer based on whether or not he met the "starter criteria" in the previous season, or in the average of the previous two seasons. The starter criteria are based on starting at least 41 games or playing at least 2,000 minutes in the regular season.- If a second round pick or undrafted player met the starter criteria following his second or third season in the league, his qualifying offer equals the amount of the qualifying offer applicable to the 21st pick in the first round of the draft class whose rookie scale contract is now finishing3, if this amount is higher than the qualifying offer he otherwise would have received.
The Qualifying Offer is also their cap hold for free agency purposes. So if Trent meets this, we'll lose about $3.6M in cap space to sign free agents (assuming Lowry walks).

So looking at cbafq.com:
http://www.cbafaq.com/salarycap.htm#Q42
Terrance Ferguson was the 21st pick in the 2017 draft. He has a QO of $5,683,323. So if Trent meets the requirements (starts 41 games or plays more than 2,000 minutes) he'll get that raise. Otherwise his qualifying offer becomes $2,079,826.
The Qualifying Offer is also their cap hold for free agency purposes. So if Trent meets this, we'll lose about $3.6M in cap space to sign free agents (assuming Lowry walks).
Worth noting that the 2000 minutes and 41 starts will have been pro-rated down for the shortened season, so it's closer to 1750 minutes. And Trent will certainly cross that threshold unless he gets hurt and misses a lot of games. So we should plan on the higher hold.
