A combustor basket assembly for a gas turbine engine that includes a combustor basket having a basket liner including an input end and an output end. An integrated exit cone and splash plate member is affixed to the output end of the basket liner and includes a base portion, an exit cone portion and a splash plate portion. The base portion includes an annular cooling channel that receives a cooling air flow and the exit cone portion and the splash plate portion each include an array of cooling feed holes in fluid communication with the cooling channel. The spacing between the feed holes and the size of the feed holes can be optimized to provide more cooling for hotter regions.
