Bonnell addressed this in his blog today, there's more at the link but this is the real gist of it...
The 11 players under contract to the Bobcats add up to more than $58 million in salary, and that does not include the $5.5 million qualifying offer to Raymond Felton or what they'll pay rookie Gerald Henderson (in excess of $1.6 million next season, based on him being the 12th pick).

So the 58 mill plus Felton's QO offer and Henderson's rookie scale contract would total around 65 mill.
I emailed him last night and he replied this morning, basically saying what he did in the quote from his blog, but he also mentioned in the email that Singletary & Jefferson are under contract for this coming season...
If you total the 11 player contracts (which would include Jefferson and Singletary)
