Your team is pretty good right now but seems to me you don't have depth. You'll need a good bench to pass forza juventus and others. Your questrion was about finances though. First thing I'd do is to correct ticket prices. You got 116 000 last home game and that's too low especially if you're about to invest in 20-30k player. At the moment you're losing 10-20k weekly, right? Since I wouldn't sell your good players maybe it's not a bad idea to invest in a trainee. That million you have can be enough for 1 player and running costs but eventually you'll need to either sell one of your good players or trainees which you don't have. Selling good players to stay alive in the game is a bad choice.

If you plan on buying a player I'd suggest you sell your 31 year old playmaker for about a million. Then buy PG and SG with 20k salary. Younger guys up to 25 so they can contribute in future seasons.

PS you still need a good SF...

It seems like I have to keep lowering my ticket prices in order to keep my arena filling up. Is that normal?

Guards are obviously a top priority for me, but I'm trying to stay away from those with low OD. I'd like to keep my current PG and add a good SG and SF. Then hopefully have enough $ leftover for backups. How big of salary should I target for the starters though?

Ok, I just bought a SG thats a good Jump shooter. Still got some money to invest.

I would recommend trying to lower your staff salaries a bit. They seem high for a div 4 team.

Ok I got a cheaper trainer. I have an exceptional PR guy with National appeal at 24K. Is that too much?

That is way too much for a D 4 team its a waste of money.

Level 3 (competent) PR manager is enough for your team. You should aim for PR manager whose salary is between $8000-9000. You should be able to get them quite cheap.

I think that level 2 PR manager quite enough. The quality of PR managers aren´t significant, but level 2 PR manager is cheaper than level 3 and his salary is lower than managers with higher level.
