The 2030-31 salary cap is $216.3M (projected), and the Kings' cap salary (contracts, dead money, and cap holds for their own free agents) adds up to $51.0M. That leaves $165.3M they can spend directly on outside free agents, with no matching rules.
Room teams also keep the room mid-level exception ($12.3M) for one more signing after the space is used. The trade-off is that opening room usually means renouncing their own free agents and the Bird rights that come with them.
This is a forward look at 2030-31: it counts the contracts, options, and cap holds already on the Kings books for that season. Signings, trades, and option decisions between now and then will move these numbers.
The rule behind this
Cap space is how far a team's cap salary sits below the salary cap. It is the most flexible way to add players: cap space can absorb any contract up to its size, with no matching rules.
