Navarro could have a starting salary as high as 2.075 million. Or a two year deal worth 4.36 million. The Wizards have a week to make a deal. Navarro would like 3 years at 12 million. Basically he wants 4 million a year and teams like the Nuggets can give him just over 2.
Again he's a 2nd round draft pick, so 2 million for a year isnt horrible either.

The contract you are proposing means Navarro is losing money to play in the NBA because of his buyout. He won't agree to a contract like that.
If Navarro was willing to accept 2 million a year, there would be a lot more teams lining up to trade for him. As it is, the Wizards want to use his rights to move one of their two centers that don't get along.
