NBA, NBPA Discussing Loosening Limits On Contract Extensions - RealGM Wiretap
As part of their ongoing CBA discussions, the NBA and NBPA could loosen the current limits on contract extensions.
Under the current CBA, teams and players can only increase the player’s salary by 120 percent in the first new year of the extension unless that player qualifies as a designated player/rookie or makes well below the league’s average salary. The sides have discussed shifting that to potentially 140-150 percent, which would open the door for players who signed contracts that eventually become below-market deals to get enough of a raise to commit to a deal before becoming a free agent.
O.G. Anunoby, Domantas Sabonis and Lauri Markkanen are three players who could be impacted by a rule change in this area.
