244 million! The NBA’s biggest contract is born, he will stay on the team, and the Warriors’ dynasty dream is shattered.
Beijing time November 10: According to ESPN reporters, the salary cap and luxury tax line for the next season will remain unchanged, respectively maintaining the previous season’s 1.09 Billion US dollars and 132 million US dollars. In the coming season, the salary cap and luxury tax line will increase by at least 3% each year, and at most 10%.
then salary expert Bobby Marks calculated the amount of the next contract for Bucks forward Antetokounmpo in this case. Z3z
Antetokounmpo’s current contract has one year left, so it will not end next summer. The salary cap range for the 2021-22 season is 112.4 million-120 million. Antetokounmpo’s five-year super maximum salary renewal amount will reach 228 million- 244 million, the starting salary occupies 35% of the salary cap, an increase of 8%.
244 million dollars! This is the largest contract in the history of the NBA. You must know that Duncan’s total salary received during his entire career is only 240 million US dollars. Antetokounmpo has earned more than others in his career in the past five years. We are getting richer.
To be honest, it is difficult to refuse such a big contract. There have been reports that Antetokounmpo is very interested in renewing the contract with the Bucks, and the Bucks are also doing their best to keep the Lian Zhuang MVP.
The Warriors have always wanted to get Brother Antetokounmpo, and they are also looking forward to re-establishing a dynasty of Warriors, but the Bucks have passed the message to the outside world through the media, even if Brother Antetokounmpo does not renew their contract with the team in advance this offseason, they will not Choosing to trade Antetokounmpo makes the probability of the Warriors getting Antetokounmpo become smaller and smaller.
Next year, Antetokounmpo will become a completely free agent. The Warriors have no way to sign him naked. They can only join the Warriors by signing first and then changing. But this way, the asking price of the Bucks will naturally be higher. Going to the Warriors, the depth of their lineup may not be enough.
So the Warriors’ dream of returning to the dynasty is not very realistic. The reason why the Warriors of the previous two years can form such a terrifying lineup is mainly due to the fact that they just caught up with the league’s salary cap soaring and the contracts of core players It is still in the bonus period, and now the Splash Brothers have an average annual contract of about 40 million yuan. If there is another letter brother, these three people alone will occupy more than 85% of the team's salary space.
In this way, the level of the rest of the role players can naturally be imagined, not to mention the state of Thompson after the injury is still unknown, the future of the Warriors is not as good as imagined.
